Mysteries

 

The first mystery I'll be talking about is the following one:

 Are humans the only form of intelligence in the universe?

 

This mystery isn’t solved and will most likely never be solved, knowing that the universe expands all the time.

 

We are, so far, the only form of intelligence in the universe, which humans know. So, to be short, except themselves, humans haven’t discovered any other form of intelligence.

 

But this might not last for long anymore, knowing that we’ve recently discovered water on Mars! Who knows… Maybe we’ll discover Martians?

 

I like this mystery mainly because it’s a mystery that lasts pretty much ‘forever’. Million of years ago, the mystery was already there, and I doubt we’ll have found the correct explanation for it in one million years!

 

Moreover, many mysteries have an author, while here, in addition of the main ‘mystery’, the author of it is also a mystery, for which many people have found their own ‘explanation’ (à Religions).

 

So basically, this mystery has no limits but does have many interpretations (like for every other mystery, actually).

Another mystery I found interesting is also about ‘space & co’, as it’s about a man, called Jerry Ehman, a volunteer for SETI, or the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence. One day, he was scanning radio waves from deep space, hoping to randomly come across a signal that bore the hallmarks of one that might be sent by intelligent aliens, when he saw his measurements spike.

 

The signal lasted for 72 seconds, and it looked like this:

 

 

He wrote “Wow!” on the original paper, hence the name of this mystery-The Wow! Signal.

 

We couldn’t determine where the message came from, in the galaxy, which makes this story a mystery.

 

I like this mystery because it was in relation with the previous ones. “Are we alone in here?”. This is a very futurist and ideal mystery to grab people’s attention, which sadly makes this theory less credible.

 

The reason why people like mysteries (in my opinion) is because they know they are safe, while reading articles about mysteries. It’s kind of similar to amusement parks: When you get on a roller-coaster, you know you’re riding around 50-90 km/h, but you also know that whatever happens (except extreme cases but you usually don’t refer to them for making your opinion about the situation), you’ll be safe, as you’re in a cart and almost nothing can happen! So it's really the feeling you get of knowing you're safe while informing yourself about some dangerous mysteries.

But in general (for these 2 mysteries, too) it's just curiosity. We've all always wanted to know what happens after death, or, the example I took earlier, are we alone in the universe? A pretty exciting question that always grabs people's attention!

You can send a friend request to Godmode_on but if you click on his name and try to view his profile nothing pops up! Maybe he is the mastermind behind Tanki and/or e-sports... 

 

P.s: Send him a friend request for me!
