Astronomers may have found giant alien 'megastructures' near Milky Way

I'm gonna lol if it's a civilization of blockheads.

[Ravencroft·]

why is there always one person that does this
"HOLY stuff ALIENS THEY'RE GONNA loving KILL US ALL"

I see where you're coming from but if this does turn out to be biological entities that are capable of large-scaled cosmic engineering, I'd imagine they'd be capable of blowing us all to pieces in a half a second as well.

-oops-

[Nonnel]

holy stuff, neat
i demand all the money on earth go to spacex for a day

[Element]

well this is cool stuff

even tho realistically we can't communicate with them, but seeing they might have something similar to a dyson sphere, then they would probably be something like a type II civilization on the

humanity isnt even type I yet, so these guys are probably still around (unless something massive happened)

[SWAT One]

That was a thing that existed not a century after the Roman Empire fell.  Damn...

If aliens were there they could be looking at us right now and they won't ever see me because I'm not born yet but I am.

I'm not sure they would see much of anything, considering their image will be of the time around the fall of Rome

unless they've moved into an area under 100 light years away

If they were type II like people are saying I'm sure they have much better viewing equipment/processes than us

[shitlord]

they would study us for a bit, see we have weapons of mass destruction and are killing each other and most likely would sterilize the planet and take resources

That is irrelevant. The law is that information absolutely can't travel faster than the speed of light and anything with mass can't travel anywhere in the same zip code as light as far as speed goes. While they may be able to look further with more precision, they are still limited by the same factors.

Unless they somehow managed to find a way to utilize the possibilities that the theory of relativity claims, that you can traverse time same as you can move in space, but that's beyond our comprehension currently.

[shitlord]

thats only the laws we know
who says its correct, its only correct from our standing and viewpoint

[Decepticon]

i like the comments section

It's where Adolf and his chums escaped to, on the last V2. They're all zombies now as well. I saw it on the Discovery Channel.

theories like this are getting stupider and stupider each day

quantum mechanics bitchhh

I remember hearing about an experiment where two quantum particles or something moved at exactly the same time on opposite sides of the earth, faster than light would have to travel to relay the movements

That's what I meant
