And the biomass of every animal and the biomass of every fungus and add it all up together, it still will not equal the biomass of this hidden kingdom of life that's actually the dominant life form on this planet. And that wasn't until we were able to curve glass and look through a little steel tube and famously shout, little beasties, little beasties.

Did we discover the world of microorganisms that, yes, live inside of you, and yes, live on the skin of the ISS space station, and yes, live miles underneath the Arctic ice, right? That is the true dominant life form on this planet, and it always has been. And it wasn't until the last 120 years we discovered that. So is it possible that there is something else that is just as normal to this world?

Is it possible? Well, the answer is a resounding yes, of course it's possible because we're always discovering new ways life can exist. When I was growing up as a kid, I was told absolutely, as a matter of fact, all life form is derived from photosynthesis, ultimately, when you go all the way down. It turns out that's not true. It wasn't until we discovered in the deepest depths of our oceans that

or these things called black smokers, we discovered there are creatures that thrive with no light, and they thrive off of something called chemosynthesis, a completely different way to metabolize energy to sustain life, right? So every time we put Mother Nature in a little box, she always finds a way to wiggle her way out.

And I think that's important when having this conversation, because if there's one thing we know as human beings, we're usually wrong at first.

How about 100 years? We have evolved more in the last 150 years than we have in the last 150,000 years. Sure. And then you have the other โ For me, I find when people say, well, the space is so huge and, you know, is it possible that things are coming from outer space? My response has always been the same. Look, I don't know where they're from. I just know that they're here.

And could they be from outer space? Sure. They can be from inner space or even the space in between. And I say that because the universe is far more complex than we give it credit for. Every time there was a time we had Newtonian physics, we thought there was a solution.
