If there are aliens, what will they look like?

Hey SFB's...try standing on the beach with a hand-held VHF radio (These radios have a range of up to 35 miles depending on the output wattage...the are line of sight with just rat tail antennas)...have another person in a boat sitting on the horizon with a similar radio...as long as the two radios are in line of sight the will work...as soon as the boat goes (away from the beach) out of sight the radios will no longer work...now add a longer antenna and as long as the tip of one antenna is in line of sight they will work...

having the power to transmit long distances has nothing to do with one radio being able to receive a signal...like most of the proven science discussed in this thread it goes right over your head...just like radio signals that don't have tall enough antennas...

Yep.

I learned about that when I got my degree in electronic communications (TV and radio repair) back in the early 80s.

On that note, anyone get a TV or radio repaired in the last decade? Two decades? No? I didn't think so.

Good thing I went to work for a Newspaper!

There is a small shrimp called the Pistol Shrimp, that can flick its jaw so fast that it creates a shock wave in the water, to stun its prey. The Energy Physics of the Pistol Shrimp

A Roswell story:

Roswell Incident 1947

my father and mother were at Roswell in 1947, he was a nuclear weapons' officer on the B29s there every time I asked my parents, they just shook their head and smiled it wasn't until the '90s my father opened up first, Roswell was a nuclear B-29 base in 1947 - locked down tight - no reporters or...

Back on the original subject of the thread, has anyone considered that an alien's skin coloring, or whatever covers the outside of their bodies, would most likely depend on the color and intensity of their home planet's star where they evolved, i.e. a red dwarf.

Are you using the diversity of coloration on the many forms of life found on earth as your basis?

Chameleon.... has it's advantages.

And octopuses have a certain mystique when it comes to possible alienship....

A quick scan, The lion's share of the "continuation" is posted by detractors... Preaching to the choir...some rather disrespectful.

Really. I want you to think about what you just asked.

The speed of anything is only relevant between two objects.
I'm sure you've witnessed the doppler effect of a train horn sometime in your life.
The speed of the soundwaves leave the horn at a fixed speed.
Then you have to add the speed of the train to the speed of the horn sound waves.
If the train is speeding towards you, the sound waves are coming at you faster than they are as the train goes away from you.
That's why the sound shifts as it goes by.

Felix's speed and the earth's surface speed are relevant to each other. If the earth's surface speed was zero, as you think, or if the earth's surface speed is about 1000mph at the equator as the rest of the world believes, the effects would be exactly the same.

We've already proven this concept to you in the example of jumping inside of a moving vehicle.

You know all of these examples can be observed and performed by yourself.

You have your faith based religion, I have mine.

In other words, "I can't defend my faith based religion so I will resort to name calling".
