Why aren't there animals in space? What if underwater animals could exist in space? They'd swim like they would in water, except in space. Am I the only one seeing the connection between these two things? Apart from there not being any food in space, and the unlikely probability of any earth animal ever getting into space, wouldn't there be a possibility for animals to evolve into animals that can live in space? What keeps them from doing that? Why can't microbial life sustain themselves in space through something like photosynthesis or some other means?

... Anon, have you ever considered how exactly the marine animals work? They (if they have gills) extract oxygen which is trapped within the water and breathe this in. In the vacuum of space, oxygen density is far far lower than even the deepest reaches of the ocean. There would be effectively nothing for them to breathe.

I've heard from some pretty smart people over the internet a long time ago that in order for animals to evolve into sentient beings, that they'd need a specific amount of oxygen to do so. But what about algae or some other type of more primitive living things? They don't really need that much oxygen to live, and would it be completely impossible for any living thing to exist without oxygen?

Do you think the oxygen density in space is sufficient to sustain any form or variant of a living thing currently in planet earth that we know of? Think also about the presence of "food" in space. Is there water, organic molecules, minerals? Are the elements that make these things abundant in space so that even if they weren't readily available, the organisms could catch the "raw material" and synthesize whatever it needed. What about the immunity it would have to have to the the chaotic and extreme decrease and increase of temperature? It would resist cosmic radiation?
See, Earth, as you know, provides all the necessary conditions for life to flourish, space doesn't. At least not for things we have here, but the scarcity of resources (or the inconceivable low density of it given the more inconceivable enormity of space) and protection point to the conclusion that life in space is impossible.

Anon don't even waste your time clearly this guy hasn't even bothered to pick up any book on science and by his own admission

Um, yes? There's micro-organisms on earth that live off of fermentation and don't even require oxygen to exist. And if we're talking about the definition of what we could consider something living, the metabolic process is probably one of the largest indicator if not the most important one in order to consider something to be alive.

Life exists in space, it is just of a different scale and one life cycle takes millions or billions of years. Its energy source is radiation and its food the interstellar medium.

No such amount as a million solar years.

150,000 solar years is the max one can be in a single system.

For example, you could be affected by the one that sent you to hell for 150,000 years very very very weakly during the late stages.

I can't read my thoughts it could be something like 8,000

How much of the big bang is power and how much time?
🗑️ Anonymous at Sun, 20 Oct 2024 13:59:03 UTC No. 16441193
I question that the big bang took over 5000 years if it's mostly power, there's no such gravity to enforce this sort of time amount. Just like we pass through sleep quickly

Our system will end soon, and will revert to a simpler system.

I doubt a family of dinosaurs lived over 5000 years. Maybe via pure genetic, but not via sperm.
Take trumps family for example, they've been round trillions of years. Little fuckers

If there were meteor showers, would they become scarce?

Anaerobic respirators still need an exogenous terminal electron acceptor, just no oxygen. Fermentors use an endogenous organic electron acceptor only, but have to dump it once it becomes too reduced. As there is no carbon source in space they would run out of organic material to make this.

Earth is probably the only planet in the universe that happened to end up at just the right distance from a star for life to form
