You are from the earth and I am from the sun.

Last week, my roommate told me a joke, which went something like this: "Two suns were chatting. One asked the other,' Is there a human being on the earth', and the other replied disdainfully,' How can the temperature of the earth be so low?' ..... "Well, it may not be such a funny joke, but when we hear that we are earthlings here, we will probably" laugh "and then smile silently at it in our hearts.

I wonder if there is life on the sun. If there were, they would have laughed at the earth people who have asserted for countless times that they will never exist. Of course, I'm not talking about whether there is life on the sun or other planets. What I want to say is just one angle. Follow my brain hole. Oh, no, follow my thinking.

The first thought is, if we are both earthlings and the sun, and the sun is also earthlings, can we avoid so many stupid and embarrassing moments? I'm not talking about the unification of Star Wars or tongue twisters. I'm just talking about the integration of ideas. Well, it's just empathy and cross-cultural communication. It sounds so tall, but it's not. It's just that if you always start from yourself, you may become the laughing stock of others, which is a bit embarrassing. If we meet someone with a more radical culture, we may feel some pain of punching and kicking. Learn to look at the problem from the perspective of others. Knowing what you can't do doesn't mean that others can't do it. What you like doesn't mean that others like it. Changing the angle can not only eliminate some of our prejudices, but also give us new horizons and create new collisions.

You think that's all I have to say. It's naive. Let's open a new way of thinking.

In fact, it is also an extension of the above ideas, from the communication between people to our communication with the unknown.

Let's go back to the joke itself (what am I going to do? )。 The reason why people on the sun think that there will be no earthlings is compared with their environment, and we have made the same inference. Because the temperature of the sun is too high, its temperature can make life based on protein disappear instantly, so there will be no such life as "human" on the sun. This sounds reasonable, but does this inference really make sense? We don't know whether there is life on the sun, and we won't discuss it here. What I want to say is about the rationality of scientific inference of the unknown, and inferring the rationality of the unknown with knowledge. In an environment like the earth, we can say that water is the source of life, and protein is the basic substance that constitutes the life of organisms. However, with such a trace of uncertainty, I hope to put a question mark in the environment of removing the earth.

Just as people believe that all roads lead to Rome, I hope to believe that there is not only one way to construct life. From it to the unknown, we can think about the unknown through the known, but we should not be completely limited to the known, because the unknown is not so reasonable and uncertain, and we seem to be unable to deduce it in a reasonable way. Of course, this is just my personal opinion.

Ok, don't stay on the above ideas, let's expand new ideas ... but I'm stuck here. Let's dig a hole first and then fill it in. ...
