This going to seem absurd..?

Question

You know how insect life can produce things,its home from its body.Like ants,or a spider making a web.What about aliens doing that ,like huge bugs.Thats possibly how they make their aircraft,and fly around.What do you think?

Answer 1

Myases Dragon.... think outside the box she thought outside the universe.....sheesh what questions

Answer 2

ok, maybe they made you also freak

Answer 3

Have you ever seen an extra-terrestrial being?  Have you ever seen an alien spacecraft?  No?  Well neither has anyone else, so I'm afraid this question is pure speculation.

Answer 4

yeah it's a bug's life...lol!

Answer 5

Huh.

Answer 6

Give google video a try.  The case for nasa ufo's by David Serreta

He has a theory (ontop of a plethora of scientific common sence ) about the nasa videos and the nature of thier propulsion.

The theroy suggests that some of these being merely fashion shells and leave the transportation to thier minds.

Answer 7

Well, I never ever rule anything out as being impossible.  It is very interesting in theory, I just wish we could see it.   Yes, it is possible.  What is to say that aliens, if there were some out there didn't do just that.  Makes sense in an odd way.  Sailors used wood and anything they could to travel the oceans of the world to explore.  Many science fictions address this same what if you are thinking of.

Answer 8

why not! I love science fiction. It's good to think outside the box.

Answer 9

Have you watched too many sci-fi movies lately?

Answer 10

If aliens exist, this is possible. But this is also an 'Earth-o-centric' viewpiont.  We want to say any other life forms in the universe would be like something we can see, to compair it to something on earth. But at the end of the day, any life forms that developed on another planet would do so under very different conditions, and would likely be outside anything in our personal experience. So, while anything is possible (and in the vastness of the universe is probably true SOMEWHERE), chances are if we ever meet aliens they will be so different from us we won't have anything to compair them to.

PS: Given the size of the unverse, no concept is really absurd, it is so HUGE that almost anything is possible somewhere

Answer 11

There's a huge difference between excreting gooey stuff out of your rear end and constructing complicated, intricate electro-mechanical machines from the same stuff.

Answer 12

Ever play Starcraft?  Or see 'Aliens'?  Or 'Starship Troopers'?

Answer 13

The question is not nearly as absurd as some of the

answers.

Answer 14

Our experience with lifeforms with carbon linked strands of dna might be a limiting view. Silicon can also act to connect long strands of molecules that we believe is nessessary to encode life. The aliens could fulfill what we know about life functions with metal and crystal based bodies.

Perhaps, strands of data are not nessessary to encode life at all and they are something complety unimaginable.

Hey, the insect like idea is just the tip of the iceberg for what we know is possible for life.

Answer 15

yeah the devil would send his bad angels to earth in space ships, they are ugly like aliens.

only pure perfect people are on other planets, they dont want to come here cos the devil wrecked our world

you can find the story in the great controversy by ellen g white

Answer 16

Although it is pure speculation, I'm thinking that it is partly possible.  It is entirely possible that the home-making abilities of aliens, if they exist, could come from an internal biological function.

However, we need to look at the reasons such abilities exist.  Small creatures faced with a vast world need a method of constructing useful tools.  Termites need living space out of the elements, and spit and mud work.  Spiders need living quarters and hunting tools, and webs work.   So if the aliens are faced with, say, living in a vast universe or in space, then perhaps some type of biological construct would have developed naturally.

However, if we assume that to become intelligent and sentient there is a size constraint, then we need to evaluate the usefulness of biological constructs for larger animals on a planet.  Are there any creatures of appropriate size for this to work larger than larger spiders?

I would believe that a creature that uses this type of biological construct would have to be much outsized by its environment.  Otherwise, it would begin using the resources of the environment around it to create dens.    If the species is tailored to living in a space environment, however, that would meet the requirement of being outsized.

Answer 17

Keep taking the medication. You may need to double the dose. Consult your doctor.

Answer 18

Highly doubtful.  Think about the energy required to cross interstellar distances, to say nothing about the maintenance of homeostasis during the time spent during the flight.

Answer 19

That's not absurd. That is imaginative.

Answer 20

You're absolutely right!  That sounded absurd!

Kidding.  Now, assuming that there is alien life somewhere else in the universe...  and they're bugs...

Some spiders fly by secreting webbing that gets caught in the wind.  Or attaching themselves to leaves that get caught in the wind.  Birds even grow and regrow their feathers.  Ants, bees, and some other insects make their homes be regurgitation; what they produce is extremely hard, and in sufficient quantity could be vacuum-tight.  Turtle shells are the same--the turtle produces them from its own body.

Though I doubt that any type of creature would be able to produce the energy necessary to travel from star to star, they very well could use this in their own atmosphere.

The other side of the bug thing, though, is that if most bugs were the size of a human they would not be able to support the weight of their own carapace.

If you want something really fun on this subject, a group of science fiction authors worked together to create an entire series of Star Wars books about an alien race that's technology was 100% biologic--first book was called Vector Prime.

Answer 21

Cloning or cocooning is common in the butterfly world - and colorful they are too.

Aliens who wrap themselves in cabbage green, cause effects on a living being and is not cloning it is taking over. Aliens are thus among us and they wear green earrings and have eyeballs the size of sprouts.

Snakes, lizards, worms, snails, krabs, spiders as well as others loose their skins by moulting or de-scaling - some transform into something better others do less good and get squashed under boot or slap on the kisser with said fly swat.

If people started out by hatching out of an egg then our next life might see us a cow or horse or better still a taxidermist!

Answer 22

Sounds like a good Sci-Fi story.It's been done before but what hasn't?

Answer 23

I would assume that if your theory is correct, it would also come with a cloaking device because surely if "space bugs" were out there now, someone would have been able to get a photo of it.

BTW, I don't think you're absurd...you're simply thinking outside the box.

Answer 24

you have made a very strong point here.aliens could be similier to earth bugs in the ways you have described.i agree with you.i dont think we are alone in this vast universe.

Answer 25

You really like the sci-fi channel don`t you ?

Anything is possible but no one will believe it until it is seen and proven.

Answer 26

back to your comics. This is astronomy.
