Stephen Hawking Comment No Surprise For Marshall Barnes
Online, May 22, 2010 (Newswire.com) - R&D engineer Marshall Barnes has released a new article that reveals new information behind Stephen Hawking's declaration that alien armadas might be roaming outer space in search of planets to colonize and civilizations to crush. Although physicists from Michio Kaku to Paul Davies have all weighed in with various opinions, none has been able to focus in on the thinking behind Hawking's comments with the clarity and more importantly, the evidence as to why Hawking made this unprecedented leap from hard science into popular speculation, as Marshall has.
More importantly, unlike any of the physicists who have appeared as television commentators on this topic, Marshall points out the scientific reason why Hawking is wrong and why Hawking has a tendency to be wrong, far more times than he need be. That reason, according to Marshall, is that he likes to give responses or make statements that appear smart on the surface but when analyzed closely, these quips (as Marshall calls them) fall apart.
The irony, Marshall reveals, is that if any scenario exists of invaders from beyond our Earth it is more likely to come from humans from a parallel Earth, as allowed by the Everett Wheeler hypothesis, which Marshall shows Hawking presents only a pedestrian knowledge of, but would fit Hawking's prediction of that how visitors would be hostile and have a similar impact as the arrival of Christopher Columbus did on the Native Americans.
Marshall's article, Hawking, the Borg, the Necromongers, Rome, the Nazis, Fringe, FreeJack, Independence Day and the Fallacy of the Drake Equation appears at his article repository at ScientificBlogging.com -http://www.scientificblogging.com/temporal_mechanic/blog/hawking_borg_necromongers_rome_nazis_fringe_freejack_independence_day_and_fallacy_drake_equation . It is a rich media article filled with video clips that illustrate and support Marshall's view that what Hawking does most is "Make a comment, followed by a joke or some other kind of witty remark, and then roll away.
