I Aproposly prophecy that god, pissed at MIT's prediction of civilization's end by 2040, has taken matters into his own demense to end the age of hominids('in the image of god?!!)) as he did the ol' dinosaurs...ie: not waiting for our yellow sun to expand into a planet-consuming red giant; or the Milky Way galaxy to collide inevitably with Andromeda Galaxy. I suspect it's not the first time he's 'cleaned house' Sodom and Gommorahwise.

This will make you poop your pants.

Is this all it takes to get people pooping their pants ?

I wasn't scared, not even a fraction of a second.

If it's my time to leave then it is my time.

OK, ‘it might’ if all you do is just watch the first half. :D

It's of natural origin. It's only us who doesn't understand it

It may take less than 1,000 years for an advanced alien civilization to destroy its own planet with climate change, even if it relies solely on renewable energy, a new model suggests.

When astrophysicists simulated the rise and fall of alien civilizations, they found that, if a civilization were to experience exponential technological growth and energy consumption, it would have less than 1,000 years before the alien planet got too hot to be habitable. This would be true even if the civilization used renewable energy sources, due to inevitable leakage in the form of heat, as predicted by the laws of thermodynamics. The new research was posted to the preprint database arXiv and is in the process of being peer-reviewed.

While the astrophysicists wanted to understand the implications for life beyond our planet, their study was initially inspired by human energy use, which has grown exponentially since the 1800's. In 2023, humans used about 180,000 terawatt hours (TWh), which is roughly the same amount of energy that hits Earth from the sun at any given moment. Much of this energy is produced by gas and coal, which is heating up the planet at an unsustainable rate. But even if all that energy were created by renewable sources like wind and solar power, humanity would keep growing, and thus keep needing more energy.
BOTTOM LINE: The reason we don't hear from aliens is because they're already dead!

The destroyer, USS Preble, completed a switch of home port in October last year when it arrived at Yokosuka in Japan from San Diego in California to join Destroyer Squadron 15, supporting the defense of ally Japan and protecting U.S. strategic interests.

The Preble is the only U.S. destroyer armed with a high-energy laser weapon, the High Energy Laser with Integrated Optical-dazzler and Surveillance (HELIOS), which can fire laser beams to destroy fast attack craft and drones.he Office of the Director, Operational Test and Evaluation (DOT&E), the principal official and adviser to the U.S. Secretary of Defense on operational and live fire test and evaluation activities involving weapons systems, released the photo in its annual report last Friday.

The black and white picture shows a bright laser beam being fired from the Preble during a demonstration at sea to verify and validate the "functionality, performance, and capability" of the HELIOS against a drone.

It was not clear when and where exactly the weapon demonstration took place. According to the report, it was one of the 32 countermeasures tests conducted in Fiscal Year 2024, which ended on September 30 last year, a few days after the Preble left San Diego for Yokosuka.
The Preble's 60-kilowatt laser weapon can work as a dazzler to "blind" the intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR) sensors mounted on drones. Furthermore, it can provide long-range ISR capability for combat identification and battle damage assessment. A laser uses energy fired at the speed of light, which could be less expensive per shot and has virtually unlimited firing power in comparison with traditional defensive ship-based weapons like missiles, making it an ideal option to counter the relatively low-cost drones.
The Preble was spotted leaving Yokosuka on January 13 and returned on Monday. Photos released by the U.S. Navy showed it was underway in the North Pacific Ocean, the Philippine Sea, and the East China Sea during that period.
At least I'm ready for it!!??:arrgh!: https://www.subsim.com/radioroom/pic...ictureid=13459

Given Covid, Global warming, and WW III just warming up and the tendency of human history to repeat itself....worth a second look: https://www.msn.com/en-us/video/peop...ade68c7a&ei=12
