Hughesair (Inflection Point)

Retired physician and air taxi operator, science writer and part time assistant professor, these editorials cover a wide range of topics. Mostly non political, mostly true, I write more from a lifetime of experience and from research, more science than convention. Subjects cover medicine, Alaska aviation, economics, technology and an occasional book review. Globalization or Democracy documents the historical roots of Oligarchy, the road to colonialism and tyranny

Earth-like planet found outside solar system

Earth-like planet found outside solar system

I hope we do not find intelligent life. We are not ready. We hunt or fish our food supply into extinction. We do not distinguish intelligent life in the oceans from fish. We enter into war with the wisdom and restraint of little children. We kill what we do not understand -- bugs. Besides, with the greater mass of this new planet, we might not be able to get up if we fall down. Then again, think what wonderful flying machines they would have with a dense atmosphere --- interesting.
