UFOs Panspermia Extraterrestrial Intelligent Life

Neil deGrasse Tyson briefly discusses, in a speculative but reasoned manner, on some fringe areas of our scientific knowledge, such as the origin of life on Earth, and the existence of -- and possibility for interactions with -- extra-terrestrial intelligent life forms.nnDr. Neil deGrasse Tyson is an American astrophysicist and the Frederick P. Rose Director of the Hayden Planetarium at the American Museum of Natural History in New York City. An accomplished scientist, he is also outspoken for his rationalist and skeptical world-views, and was honored with the 2009 Isaac Asimov award from the American Humanist Association.nnTo find out more about Dr. Tyson, you can start here:nnhttp://www.haydenplanetarium.org/tyson/nnTo read more about Dark Matter and Dark Energy, you can start here:nnhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dark_matternnhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dark_Energynnhttp://hubblesite.org/hubble_discoveries/dark_energy/nnhttp://www.dmoz.org/Science/Astronomy/Cosmology/Dark_Matter/nnTo read more about the Theory of Special Relativity, you can start here:nnhttp://www.phys.unsw.edu.au/einsteinlight/nnhttp://www.einstein-online.info/en/elementary/index.htmlnnhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special_relativitynnTo read more about the Theory of General Relativity, you can start here:nnhttp://www.einstein-online.info/en/elementary/generalRT/index.htmlnnhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_relativitynnTo read more about "real-life" applications of Relativity, you can start here:nnhttp://www.einstein-online.info/en/spotlights/complete_spotlights/index.htmlnnTo check a quick summary chart of the Standard Model, you can click here:nnhttp://twitwall.com/view/?what=0608060B00nnTo check an interactive tour of Particle Physics, you can click here:nnhttp://particleadventure.org/nnTo read excellent introduction into Particle Physics, you can start here:nnhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_Modelnnhttp://www.kuro5hin.org/story/2002/5/1/3712/31700nnhttp://cms.web.cern.ch/cms/Physics/StandardPackage/index.htmlnnTo read glossaries for Quantum Physics terms, you can start here:nnhttp://www.quantum-physics.polytechnique.fr/nnhttp://www.sparknotes.com/testprep/books/sat2/physics/chapter19section3.rhtmlnnTo read introductory articles on Quantum Physics, you can start here:nnhttp://www.newscientist.com/topic/quantum-worldnnhttp://www.lightandmatter.com/html_books/6mr/ch01/ch01.htmlnnhttp://www.sciencedaily.com/news/matter_energy/quantum_physics/nnhttp://www.quantiki.org/wiki/index.php/Introduction_to_Quantum_TheorynnTo take free online college-level courses, you can start here:nnhttp://ocw.mit.edu/OcwWeb/Physics/index.htmnnhttp://ocw.mit.edu/OcwWeb/Chemistry/index.htmnnThis clip was edited from the 'Cosmic Quandaries with Dr. Neil deGrasse Tyson' lecture held at The Palladium in St. Petersburg's College, March 26th, 2009. nnhttp://www.spcollege.edu/nnYou can watch the entire lecture here:nnhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CAD25s53wmE
