Extraterrestrial Exploratory Missions

If extraterrestrial civilizational cultures can

send exploratory missions to the vast reaches of 

outer space in search of intelligent life 

they would be far more advanced than those 

that inhabit Earth. Astrophysicists feel of a 

certainty that the time and space of the universe 

is boundless and that the emergence of intelligent 

life cannot but have emerged in countless planets

circling their suns in an unknown number of

constellations, speculation that would assume 

the presence of numberless areas in the endless 

reaches of the universe where life is established 

in gatherings of sentient beings developing 

normatives of racial groupings all harbouring 

the curiosity of affirmation in the presence of 

others capable of thought and emotion and the 

will to learn. Conjecturing that one of those 

technologically advanced searches' itinerary 

included a trip to Planet Earth the idle thought 

occurs of an impression of cerebral capabilities 

lacking the emotional maturity to value a coherent

appreciation of life, focused instead on the

primitive urge to dominate and accrue the

benefits of existence, denying it to others. An

impression certain to amaze rational minds from

outer space, impelling an immediate departure

in fear of infection by this strange Earthly malady.
