And if you're looking through an optical sight, that will also happen. So now they're actually using this optical โ compensation and sniper scopes are using this technology, adaptive optics. So it's another way that astronomy has influenced military developments as well.

Well, yeah. I'm kind of an outlier. So just everyone should look to the actual experts in this field. But I have some rigorous kind of logical arguments that I believe the probability of โ I would never say it's zero. But I think it's very low and I think I can substantiate that. The best part is I can't be falsified right now.

There's zero evidence that there's life anywhere else in the universe, period, full stop, end of sentence. There's no evidence, conclusive evidence.

I knew we'd get into drones. So the argument that it would somehow, first of all, transform our understanding of human place is inarguable to me. I believe that's true. Although in this movie Contact, it's a really wonderful movie. It's not cheesy science fiction. It was the first to like use a wormhole and all sorts of cool stuff as contrivances.

But in that movie, there's a scene where President Bill Clinton โ is talking about the discovery that this fictitious character made, but he's actually talking about a meteorite that was discovered in Antarctica, and they just clipped that, and the meteorite was believed to have microbial life, and that meteorite's origin was inarguably from Mars, okay?

So the reasoning was, this is 1997, that there was a meteorite found in Antarctica, where it's easy to find meteorites.

That's in real life. That's in real life. In 1997, a scientist announced the discovery of a meteorite from Antarctica. It's called Allan Land Hills meteorite. And it had what they claimed were evidence of microbial life and even respiration byproducts of these microbial life forms. It was such a big deal that within minutes, Bill Clinton had a press conference on the White House lawn.
