[contemplative mood on] If you ask me, the chances are that in an unmeasured universe, anything is possible, and is also probable as well. Only those who believe that humanity is alone in the universe would not be able to see this.

humans...? Alone...? Yeah right. There has got to be life out there. It is so damn hard to believe that in the trillions of systems out there, and all of the unexplored sectors of space, that there isn't some form of life, Advanced, or in it's infancy...

there is one theory that states that if the universe is infinite in size then anything and everything must happen, and all at the same time. it makes sense.

if black holes are gateways to other universes, can white holes be gateways from other universes?

That's exactly what they are. Every black hole in what universe equates to a white hole in another universe. All these universes are connected, hence the name, Multiverse.

But that only can be true if the universe is infinitely varied, and because physics laws tend to stay the same, that isn't very likely.

Great renders!! First time I'm actually visiting the Had Light Forums in a long time. Work and all.

Setekh, you got to teach me how you do the picture where it zooms in on the pilot of the Shivan Mara. That one rocks!!!!!!

Thanks, NeoHunter   It's actually surpisingly simple... I could probably do a step-by-step of it...

Actually, there is irrefutable proof that life from other planets, if it indeed does exist, is intelligent - more so than humans, at least. What proof is that, you ask? The fact that they have not made contact with us, for one.

There is, without a doubt, life on other planets. The question is how many of them have intelligent life? Some of them could have life as primitive as when the dinosaurs were still roaming the Earth. Some of them could have life more advanced than us.

Maybe those very advanced races think we are not advanced enough and do not wish to make contact with us or still do not know of our existance.

The possibilities are endless........

Okay! What program did you use to create that picture? I only have Adobe Photoshop 6 at home.

He uses Spire, a custom made program built by himself and his brother. It only runs on Linux mind you, and if your lucky most if not all of what it does can be done in Photoshop or something worked around like that.

Oh, and thanks for the compliments on the render
