I've always had this question without a good place to ask it: how do we know that everything beyond our solar system isn't distorted? All these distances and large numbers of stars are immense distances from us. Could it be possible that we experience a distorted view of the universe due to spinning around in the Milky Way, for example? Or have the telescopes (e.g. Voyager) provided us with answers on that topic? theadvancedapesI think we are still being incredibly self-centered in our thinking. All of our definitions of what life is, what is possible, what is intelligence, etc are based around our collective selfish notion of what we know.
