Honestly were probably all going at the same rate. Unless someone can correct me, if life can only exist from a planet like ours being a certain distance from a star - wouldnt the big bang send the amount of matter in motion to create everything at the same rate our solar system was created?

I probably worded that weird, but Im sure someone could answer it. Basically if life exists outside our solar system, it started at the same rate ours did. Unless of course you account for natural disasters (would the dinosaurs have been intelligent beings one day?), but then you have to account for whether if the amount of time lost from a species like the dinosaurs going to extinct or other sort of Ice Age periods is enough time for a species to invent intergalactic travel.


Not really. Different solar systems/planets/stars are older than others and formed under varying circumstances. The universe is roughly 13 billion years old, while Earth is only 4 billion. Earth was ultimately formed from debris from the sun.

I think what he is saying is that the blast from the big bang should have evenly distributed everything in the universe.
But there's more at play than that.


Yeah, I get that. Theoretically it should have.

It boggles my mind what is out there. I'd really like to know...but I guess I should be satisfied with knowing things people 1,000 years ago didn't.
