The James Webb Space Telescope is now fully operational and soon will be providing it's first color images. Will the James Webb Telescope be used to look for intelligent life? The JWST can be used to look for techno signatures on exoplanets from extraterrestrial intelligent civilizations on planets with populations of 100 billion or more. The technique that Jacob Haqq-Misra proposes to use to find alien civilizations is by looking at the 'Disruption of a Planetary Nitrogen Cycle as Evidence of Extraterrestrial Agriculture'.

This possible solution to the fermi paradox would use next generation space telescopes like the James Webb Space Telescope and the proposed LUVOIR Large Ultraviolet Optical Infrared Surveyor.

Should we use the JWST to look for alien life? Let John know what you think.

[MyLifeInVideos]

I like when he said "we are someone else's alien civilization" I never thought of it like that fascinating.

[thedoruk]

I seriously wholeheartedly hope that they *will* use the immense opportunity that james webb gives to look closer to water moons like europa enceladus that could gave huge hints about themselves and biome - perhaps they could look systems like trappist 1 or gliese 581 !

My genuine answer is *defiitely yes!* We really should actively use james webb telescope to search for habitable systems and life harboring planets and moons

[OShackHennessy]

This is my favorite channel now. What an awesome thing you’re doing here man great job!

The raw data from JWST should be released publicly as soon as received.
When the raw data was finally released from a Jupiter probe, the officials in charge were astounded how much more quality information "amateurs" were able to ferret out of the data than had been thought possible. The "amateurs" asked questions the officials had not thought of and -- like all good questions -- led to new insights.

Advanced intelligences with high technology are extremely rare, and among those few that do emerge...some of them become ultra efficient, some move into their "Matrix, " some stay quiet, some self destruct, and so on, and so on....I think this is what explains the Fermi Paradox.

JWST should be used to look for alien life. It should also be used to look at everything we think is in the designed capability envelope, and many things we think are outside that envelope. Learn all the things, push all the limits.

[ShellyBBird]

So excited for this one! This exact title is something I’ve been hoping for. Thank you Mr. Godier.

[DanishGSM]

Just in time, as always.
Thanks so much for the video and info.
I wish you All the best.

[StevieObieYT]

Wow! Imagine if the JWST actually detected alien life... I wouldn't be surprised really because the JWST is so advanced and there's no way we're alone in the universe... But at the same time, I'd be really surprised because aliens... 😱👽 🤯

[Rick-Rarick]

Thank you for all the amazing content! So relaxing and informative!

[stricknine]

Great interview! I feel spoiled with all the content lately. Thanks for the episode. 😁

I'm new to this channel and I'm loving ❤ it keep up the good work 👏 from England 🇬🇧 with love.

[Laurasiana]

Thanks for mentioning what I think is the most compelling answer to the Fermi Paradox: colonizing space is hard, and offers little return. The idea that a civilization would - or could - maintain a 1.5 million-year-long project to populate the galaxy seems ludicrous. One solar system can support a population of many trillions. I don’t see any serious effort being made to send multitudes of colonists in sleeper ships, much less generation ships.

[NoPulseForRussians]

Best day of the week! New Event Horizon video day 🤘🏻🤘🏻

[madmattdigs]

Definitely we should. Finding another intelligent civilization somewhere out there in the cosmos would be such a HUGE discovery. I would be content to die after that discovery. Just to know…

My gut feeling is that they are out there. Just very rare. We’re very special.

[davedogge]

Small increments in technological advancements each one presenting us with more of a chance of finding intelligent life out there comparable to ours or above that is !

[days]

i didnt know you had a second channel! both are so much

[robbabcock_]

Finally! Some scientist says what I've suspected for years; the notion of Von Neuman probes just may be too fantastical. It's hard to extrapolate our technology to a point where we can make self replicating machines that can keep working for millions of years. Our oldest probe (Voyager) is failing due to the radiation in interstellar space and it's only 50 years old. It's tempting to have a "Marvel MCU" belief in technology eventually just magically doing whatever the plot requires. It may be a bridge to far for a probe to be able to mine all the raw materials, fabricate the necessary building materials (eg titanium, steel, silicon wafers, "unobtainium" panels, etc), refine fuels and then build another copy of itself, all without any intervention from us. It's tempting in light of our last 100 years of innovation to think tech has no limits but that may not be the case.

At any rate, great episode!🙏 I hope you can have Haqq-Misra on again soon.

i love how many of these have been coming out lately this is amazing its like a new one to help me sleep nearly every night sometimes ive to listen to one 3 times tho relaxing
