Interesting... The "no" is definitely cheaper and faster than the "maybe" or "yes." If we get a "no", what's next? Planet-wide depression?
- api 4y agoYes means there is life out there. No means there isn't life in the specific place we looked, but the universe is very big. So no is really pretty meaningless.
- thathndude 4y agoNo has to be understood to be “maybe.” if there’s one negative that will be very very hard to ever approve, this is it.
