Что ученик мог бы сказать о внеземной жизни.

Every animal that has evolved on this planet has evolved to kill or avoid being killed. It is possible that alien life could ha e developed without scarcity of resources and without natural predators. It is also possible that they have been advanced for so long that they no longer resemble what they originally evolved from.

The evolution of eyes is fascinating. Every niche, sometimes separated by millions of years, developed a skin cell that sensed light.

This eventually mutated into a lens, cornea, etc…

Multiple times on Earth, eyes developed in different environments, with different conditions, independent of each other.

«The human eye has to be one of the cruelest tricks nature ever pulled. We can see a tiny, cone-shaped area of light right in front of our faces, restricted to a very narrow band of the electromagnetic spectrum. We can’t see around walls, we can’t see heat or cold, we can’t see electricity or radio signals, we can’t see at a distance. It is a sense so limited that we might as well not have it, yet we have evolved to depend so heavily on it as a species that all other perception has atrophied. We have wound up with the utterly mad and often fatal delusion that if we can’t see something, it doesn’t exist. Virtually all of civilization’s failures can be traced back to that one ominous sentence: ‘I’ll believe it when I see it.’

I’ve been looking everywhere since I saw this post for something that can replicate images of these different eyes’ perspectives. Whether that be different colors, FOV, etc. I cannot find a picture chart anywhere, does anyone else have a source for that by any chance? I’m so curious to SEE what they see!

I thought the last sentence on the crescent pupils said ‘they also boost confidence’. Which would have been nice.

Very cool post, especially since everything we know about biology tells us that beings evolve in a way that best suits survival in the environment they live in.

Trust no one that can’t spell life

Fascinating. Breaking down and reverse engineer evolution of spieces like that basically can give us a whole set of imprints how et life can evolve on other planets, just need to set different variables to the equation cause earth is great example that this equation is more or less the same — survival under given circumstances. Still, this gray alien thing, I cannot believe these are the actual aliens, that they come up with this technology, being on that level you use drones and ai to do all the work, actual aliens are sipping drinks on hawai like scenery without worrying about 9to5 routines, money, gas prices and shit like that which is all fake but it is also a point in evolution to that point.

Omg hypnotoad eyes exist irl

You forgot insects

What about the Mantis Shrimp with Trinocular vision!

This is one of the most interesting things I’ve read in ages

The ones with the big black or red eyes evolved in a place with little light, presumably underground, and are sensitive to light.

There’s a reason they seem to prefer the night.

If they are like the ones from the arrival? 🤔

You’d need to go to an extraterrestrial school to ask them.

Saw the video on cats being Arcturian entities that bond and protect you from things. Just havin a nice micro dose staring at the cat. Eyes are wild. Eye contact now tells me too much, I gotta be like hello floor I’m tism.

It’s important to look at their eyes? What if their eyes are vestigial wads of flesh that don’t even work? It’s a little *specist* to assume they’ll even have eyes.

The one I saw had eyes like a wasp

All black, wrapped around to the top of its head
