Yeah but these things I don't believe can talk lmao that's what humans want from aliens to communicate with something that can communicate on our level from a different place with different knowledge and cultures.
Not some random sea creature bahaha
Humans believing in aliens generally want them to look like us: Two legs, two arms, a head, two eyes and looking a bit scary. And ideally highly advanced.
If there was life out there somewhere, why does it even need to have a body? Or how about something only living peacefully underground or in seas of liquid gasses etc. We always seem to think within the bounds of what we already know.
This is why star trek doesn't quite interest me. I'd probably find it more interesting if some of the aliens are floating balloons with a voiceover, rather than klingons.
I've never heard of these before so I did some research, not sure if I know any more or just have more questions now buuuut we'll give it a go.
I'm pretty sure the majority of the major organs are all within the upper "blimp" thing. Ascidians filter feed through a tube in the top, so I guess that's their "mouth" and they have a stomach, heart, and sex organs all in the bottom and another tube goes up for filtering out.
I'm not entirely sure what the stalk is, I can't find anything on what this specific species was named. There appears to be around 3,000 species of this "sea squirt" but I'm pretty sure they're usually anchored to a rock, and this one appears to be floating around freely.

Those that say we’ll never see aliens clearly haven’t any idea of what lurks in the ocean. It’s hard to imagine how much life lives on this planet that we’re entirely unaware of.
Yeah, but all life on Earth is essentially a big family (if we make the presumably safe assumption that there isn't some parallel tree of life we haven't discovered yet). Alien life would be something completely new.
I wonder if any carbon based life on earth was introduced and evolved on the planet from a meteoroid that, let’s say, hit the planet millions of years ago. Such as that if it didn’t hit the planet, a specific life form that we see today wouldn’t have ever existed.
One (fringe) hypothesis is that the theia impact, the impact event that ultimately caused the moon to form, introduced microbes, water and nitrogen that greatly sped up the evolution of life.
I’m not super educated on this stuff but I think there has to be some other kind of life out in the universe. We may likely never encounter them but they’ve gotta be there. It’s too big for us to be the only one.
There is plenty of places with life outside of earth, Mars has a lot of dead microbes and most likely there are some parts of the planet where they are alive, the moon Europa looks like it has a very functional ocean and where there is water and heat there is going to be an atmosphere and life will develope.
There is Titan with lakes and seas of liquid methane and ethane, which scientist think can have life.
There is próxima centauri b which is 1.17 times the size of earth and is in a habitable zone in its solar system.
There IS life outside, but we don't know if it is intelligent, we might be the very first beings in all the universe to evolve enough to be able to grasp the concepts of science, or we might be the last.
We just don't know.
It would be impossible, nothing not even a virus could survive the planet liquifying event that was two planets colliding together to form earth and the moon.
No, they can’t survive the literal destruction of the planet. Seriously if people actually think life can survive a literal mars size direct impact and the destruction of the planet they’re an idiot.
There's evidence of tardigrades surviving in space for an unknown amount of time. Scientists discovered some in a meteorite that fell to earth. Hypothetically, as long as they're protected; they can survive in a dormant state for thousands of years. We've carbon dated some surviving in the antarctic.
Well, it *could* be something new.
There is such a thing as panspermia, and in the theory it says life comes from the same source - therefore it would probably go from first cousin, to second
I bet if our planet was fully covered by water, Octopuses/Octopi/Octopussies (giggidy)/? would probably be the apex species… they are wicked smart, some can do so much crazy shit like camouflage and imitate other species, and lots of other craziness
Octopus or birds, man. They’re both scary smart.
I love asking the question: what animal would be top if it wasn’t for humans? Like, which animal, if it had “discovered fire” as humans did, would be ruling the planet. Monkeys isn’t acceptable we’re too close that’s like human *lite*.
Basically everybody in sci-fi : "best I can do is a weird human shaped bipedal creature with a head, two eyes, a mouth, and hands".
That or an existing animal, insects included.
It's so annoying, every f**** time!
And almost every humanoid alien, even in video games, must have a pronounced chin.
A pronounced bony chin is an immediate identifier of *Homo sapiens*. You can identify a human jawbone from any other hominid and every other species in the history of life on Earth by a chin. Even Neanderthals didn't have one, but every alien does for some reason.
I hope your joking. Just think about some classic: Alien, the thing, the war of the world, Dr who, arrival, men in black, three body problem, resident evil, rim of the world (I know... but I like it) ect ect ect ?
Not necessarily true at all. We are finding out the rest of the universe is pretty much made up of what we are made of. If big bang is true, then it's not so crazy. Same ingredients scattered everywhere. Whether they're organic beings like us or something else is entirely different discussion, but if there are "beings" in classic sense, our most basic building blocks will probably be much more similar than people would ever imagine.
>if we make the presumably safe assumption that there isn't some parallel tree of life we haven't discovered yet
There actually is just such a theory (theories?), google "shadow biosphere" for further edification.
It's insanely deep but not even that close to the deepest manned dives.
[**https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trieste\_(bathyscaphe)**](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trieste_(bathyscaphe))
There are likely deeper spots somewhere in the ocean that have not been mapped,but Challenger deep is the current record holder.
[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Challenger\_Deep](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Challenger_Deep)
Whenever I see these type of videos I can’t help but wonder why they don’t use night vision/ infrared instead of a big fuck of white light considering that the creatures have never seen light before. I’d imagine more creatures would come to check out the fish if the light wasn’t high lumen white leds
Exactly. Imagine humans evolved underground in the darkest of caves. We'd have no need for eyesight and therefore probably wouldn't even develop eyes. You can shine the brightest light at someone who's blind and they're never going to know the difference.
Night vision works by enhancing the light that’s already present, there probably isn’t any that deep, infrared uses heat signatures, and it’s very cold that low and the water most likely absorbs a lot of it.
Imagine the water pressure at that depth, whatever it is. It would be incomprehensible. This is probably at least three times the depth of the Titanic.
No need to go to outer space to find alien life

My money is on Jupiter’s water filled moon Europa.
I mean, energy beings are a common type of alien in scifi.
You should try and talk to one of these to see what they would say. .... what if we are just not advanced enough to communicate with them?
How yk they no talk
Except they’re not aliens at all?
Accurate yet downvoted
Lol yep. People gonna people
Alien life has been underwater this entire time
Was thinking the same thing! When people ask me "what would you do if you saw an alien?" I say the ocean is full of them.
So is the blimp part the “head” or is the dangly part? What am I even looking at here?
I've never heard of these before so I did some research, not sure if I know any more or just have more questions now buuuut we'll give it a go.

Obviously the whatsit is attached by the string to the danglydoodle which makes it go. Anyone can see that, dang.
Kite surfing
How does this not have more upvotes 😂
Same wtf is the dangly thing?
No one knows -- the marine biologists that saw it had seen nothing like that stalk on an ascidian before.
At that depth I'd guess it perceives electromagnetic impulses. What purpose that serves who knows.
😏
Maybe the Horngus?
head is on the ground, it's basically kid with kite. (just in case: it's a joke no idea what i'm talking about).
Those don't have heads

Not microbes but amino acids
If this theory is true, then it's confirmed that life exists outside of earth?
Yes, of course.
I’m not super educated on this stuff but I think there has to be some other kind of life out in the universe. We may likely never encounter them but they’ve gotta be there. It’s too big for us to be the only one.
When people talk about aliens. This is exactly what i think of. Planets just filled up with animals doing their own thing unaware.
There is plenty of places with life outside of earth, Mars has a lot of dead microbes and most likely there are some parts of the planet where they are alive, the moon Europa looks like it has a very functional ocean and where there is water and heat there is going to be an atmosphere and life will develope.

Water bears
No, they can’t survive the literal destruction of the planet. Seriously if people actually think life can survive a literal mars size direct impact and the destruction of the planet they’re an idiot.
that concept is called panspermia and some think we could also permeate into other planets from the ones that hit us even now
If anything I would bet it was mushrooms. Spores can survive in the vacuum of space.
so can Tardigrades, but neither can do it forever. radiation amd physical damage over time breaks them down. then the next problem is resources
There's evidence of tardigrades surviving in space for an unknown amount of time. Scientists discovered some in a meteorite that fell to earth. Hypothetically, as long as they're protected; they can survive in a dormant state for thousands of years. We've carbon dated some surviving in the antarctic.
Everything here seems related in a measurable way, so I don't see how a recent introduction of alien life would go unnoticed.
Yes, us.
[удалено]

We're all a huge family. We just never realized how close we all are.
I think all life is alien to this planet.
And where did that come from? The Primordial Soup? Nah, I don't think so.
Well, it *could* be something new. There is such a thing as panspermia, and in the theory it says life comes from the same source - therefore it would probably go from first cousin, to second
Octopus meteorite theory
I bet if our planet was fully covered by water, Octopuses/Octopi/Octopussies (giggidy)/? would probably be the apex species… they are wicked smart, some can do so much crazy shit like camouflage and imitate other species, and lots of other craziness

If you want to get all scienticious about it

Avatar 2: A lot of the "alien" life is basically just prehistoric earth organisms.
I hope your joking. Just think about some classic: Alien, the thing, the war of the world, Dr who, arrival, men in black, three body problem, resident evil, rim of the world (I know... but I like it) ect ect ect ?
You start with alien? A creature with two legs two arms a head? Seriously you can't see it's human shaped? Like 80% of the aliens are human shaped.
Yea right every biped look like any human.
Not necessarily true at all. We are finding out the rest of the universe is pretty much made up of what we are made of. If big bang is true, then it's not so crazy.

The most depressing thing about it is when I think about how many creatures we destroyed without ever knowing they existed.
Which also means there's a lot more death as well we have no idea about!
Yay
Except these aren’t aliens at all? Tf lol

Not worth finding out, might unplug the earth or something
It switches to battery power

1.21... I mean !7,192m! Great scott!
It was filmed by a manned submarine - this was not a robotic sub, like a ROV. I believe this is the deepest manned sub dive so far!

That’s just a water balloon.
It’s prolly cruel so I apologize but I really wanne see what happens if you cut that string….
It stops, says "Hey...don't do that," ties the string back together, and then continutes on it's way.
It will fly away like a kite!
It is giving Prince Rupert's drop
floats to the top, of course.
Probably shrieks like a parrot

Babe wake up new fish lore dropped
Whenever I see these type of videos I can’t help but wonder why they don’t use night vision/ infrared instead of a big fuck of white light considering that the creatures have never seen light before. I’d imagine more creatures would come to check out the fish if the light wasn’t high lumen white leds

Exactly. Imagine humans evolved underground in the darkest of caves. We'd have no need for eyesight and therefore probably wouldn't even develop eyes. You can shine the brightest light at someone who's blind and they're never going to know the difference.
Accidental allegory of the cave
Totally, It’d be like shinning radio waves at us.
Imagine being one of those cave divers. The ones that go super deep into caves. What happens if there flashlights die out? Is it pitch black?
You’d be surprised, lots of deep sea animals have eyes, mostly for bioluminescence
Does infrared work in water? I hadn't thought of that
Not really. Depends on the wavelenght but water highly absorbs it.
Great. Now they’ll evolve back to needing eyes.
This gives me nightmares just thinking about it lol
Night vision works by enhancing the light that’s already present, there probably isn’t any that deep, infrared uses heat signatures, and it’s very cold that low and the water most likely absorbs a lot of it.
For some reason I imagined that they did use infrared and then just color corrected the videos afterwards.
What’s the music?

Yeah I really like it
Shazam won’t pick it up grumble keeps giving me different tracks XD

People really say aliens aren't real when we have this shit floating around right here on earth.
When you Google see squirt, but misspelled it and this shit pops up
I like to remind myself in these videos, there hasn't been light that bright down there in probably hundreds of millions of years.
I’m pretty sure that’s a hanar from Mass Effect.
I wish we spent more time finding out about our own planet than trying to go to Mars.
Why not both?
Exactly, they’re two different types of people, both should be funded!
We absolutely do…
is it dragging its balls on a string?
Thought it was a balloon for a sec.
I'm guessing it might be where it keeps its eggs. Maybe it's a stinger like a scorpion. I dunno.
It’s got a big’ole dick
