|content=So if #ufotwitter ever wanted to know why I didn’t take [[UAP|#UFO]] seriously, it was because I thought it was *preposterous* given lack of evidence.

And if #ScienceTwitter wants to know why I spun on a dime, it’s because it IS linked to the post-Einsteinian physics of our survival.

|content=Under [[Isaac Newton|Newton]], we were free to explore the cosmos: 1686-1905.

Einstein then enforced house arrest to our solar system:1905-Now.

@elonmusk then said chemical rockets could get us 2 more spheres w Newtonian laws.

But survival hinges on going *beyond* Einstein, not back to Newton.

|content=Did you really say that, Eric?

Like EVERY civilisation before us, not destroyed by some rival, we are on course to self-destruct long before we become a multi-planetary species.

Your Brother, Bret's, #EvolutionaryLens should reveal this to him, but doesn't seem to have done.

|content=I’m not going to complicate the basic story with caveats. That’s the basic plot. 

Either there is freedom to leave based on new ideas, like [[Theory of Geometric Unity|GU]], or the [[Einstein’s Prison|Einsteinian restrictions]] will persist.

If they persist; we probably can mildly elongate survival here by decades via wisdom.

|content=But if we can leave to explore the universe by going beyond Einstein, anyone else out there can visit.

This brings us to [[UAP|UFO/UAP]]. Assuming a distribution of life in the cosmos:: some life is behind us in science, with others ahead.

A (loose) argument then links [[UAP]] to survival:

|content=If life is abundant &amp; we’re not the top of the hierarchy (which is reasonable to me), I’d guess that [[UAP]] would be here if that is possible in Einstein’s successor theories. The absence of [[UAP]] is strong but *inconclusive* proof that [[Einstein’s Prison|Einstein’s restrictions]] persist in all theory.

|content=Hence my interest in [[UAP]]. [[UAP]] from distant worlds would be a strong indication that it is possible to diversify our shared risk which is that all known technological life is dependent on one atmosphere linking our three main existential risks:

A) Climate</br>
B) Pathogen</br>
C) Radiation
