- asdff 1y agoImagine you are an FTL space alien in search of other FTL civilizations. Would you parade your FTL tech around? Allow others to study your capabilities? I'd probably send something that could plausibly be identified as a rock. If there are other FTL civilizations out there, I'd like to know everything about them before they know anything about me.
- Eduard 1y agois it reasonable to assume an FTL civilization to be so dumb to mistake a spacescraft for a rock?
- ebcode 1y agoI don’t know if ours is an FTL civ or not, but I do think a large number of us are mistaking our own spaceship[0] for a rock. [0] https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spaceship_Earth https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spaceship_Earth
