Some scientists think that there are intelligent life forms on other planets and messages should be sent to contact them. Other scientists think that it is a bad idea and would be dangerous. Discuss both views and give your opinion.
It is considered by some researchers that there might be other kinds of
life
in another part of the world and it would be beneficial for us to contact them. On the contrary
, others believe that they might be dangerous and may harm life
on earth
. In my opinion, I think that that intelligent life
might have violent attitudes which may harm life
on earth
.
First
of all, many believe that those species could help us solve few mysteries regarding earth
and the galaxy. In other words
, if there is life
on the other side of the universe, then
they might assist scientists
in solving some complex problems such
as the gravitational force of planets
, how much it differs in comparison to other planets
, and much more. Furthermore
, that intelligent life
might aid us to overcome shortages of water and other renewable sources by providing us resources from their planets
. In this
way, the earth
would be able to survive its diversity much longer. In addition
to this
, scientists
nowadays primarily based their research on hypotheses, but with the help of other species, they might conduct research based on facts. As a result
, this
collaboration would convert few illusions into reality. To illustrate this
, a science fiction movie
was released last
year, which showed how the scientist from earth
collaborated with extraterrestrial life
to prove some of the theories. Not only this
collaboration helps in solving issues, but it also
led to a rise in tourism. The movie
showed an increase in travel to other planets
via space shuttle and boasting of the world's economy due to aliens. So, the beliefs of many scientists
might come true if another life
exists and they aid in researching the universe.
On the other hand
, one of the most significant disadvantages is that they might be violent and aggressive in behaviour. It may be plausible that those living beings consider us as dangerous, which can instigate them to attack us. In this
way, it will lead to more chaos and violence, which may be harmful to people and the universe. Also
, it may be possible that they have some evil intention to destroy life
on earth
or to steal away earth
’s resources, or maybe they could treat human beings as guinea pigs to conduct their experiment on people. For example
, in the “ alien” movie
; it was showed that aliens couldn’t digest the fact that earth
has its own life
. Due to this
, they planned to eradicate life
on earth
via nuclear resources. That movie
depicted how a catastrophe would be if all this
turns into reality. Therefore
, this
may happen in real life
, too, so one should be cautious before considering such
thoughts of collaboration.
To conclude, even though many scientists
consider other life
as helpful, there is a much greater probability that those living beings might harm people. Hence
, the government should restrict many institutions' research to save the planet and save life
on earth
