Who knows, our Earth could be one of those.
It would certainly explain things, like why we seem to be out nowhere.. I mean there is no signs of life, against all the odds. Deep mission alright.
It would explain why we started agriculture, civilisation etc so suddenly. It would also explain many of the myths, such as the ones about star people visiting us.
I would obviously create and seed a planet first, then monitor its development upto a point before going in to live onsite. Maybe we had created some folks there to do some gardening. When you arrive and they're treating you like a king and after you left eventually the stories started to seem like fairytales.
It would fit with the idea that there was an ancient advanced ciliation, who was wiped out about 12,000 years ago, because of something like flood, solar events or asteroids caused floods etc. or they decided to reboot the experiment. But few who survived were able to restart civilisation at some basic level at least.
Since our ancestors were wiped out there has been this state of amnesia, like Graham Hancock puts it. We have been left wondering in the dark, asking ourselves who we are, why are we here and if there is anybody out there.
Maybe "the gods" will return some day and offer us way back home, but we will probably try to shoot them. All thanks to Hollywood brainwashing the world to imagine that aliens are some space insects who want to turn us into batteries. Why not imagine it would be more like the final episode of Battlestar Galactica or the world of Expanse? But who knows, maybe they're already here and some suspicious folks are freaking out.
Anyways, sorry about that. Just felt that this train of thought was supposed to be spilled out here. <InsetAllTheDisclaimersRequiredHere />
- larry_ralph_ 3y agoWhat are you apologizing for? Your reply is quite insightful and makes far more sense than quite a number of theories being bandied around by 'some' who call themselves scientists.
- miika 3y agoThanks for saying that. I have just come to notice that this HN community can be ruthless and lacking sense of humour and imagination. Even with apologies I always get downvoted. I don't really care but it's a funny game :)
