Instead of looking out, they should first stop destroying the planet we do have FFS.

...and if life is found on another planet, how will we be sure it is an indigenous life form, and not from a previous visit?

So, what we are seeing in this Black Hole which is at least 26,000 years ago, therefore, it is possible it has already “burned out”.

The other puzzling thing is, if the gravitational pull of the Black Holes is so strong which even light cannot escape it, then how can we even see it 26,000 years later since the light won’t reach us as it is swallowed by the Black hole?

Black holes don't burn out. In that sense view them perhaps as being a bit like Paphitis.

The light seen is due to the effects of the hole on surrounding space.

I believe it was postulated long ago that there's a giant black hole at the centre of all galaxies. Thus the characteristic swirling, vortex appearance.

If so it's odd, that the creation of life should ultimately depend upon something so malevolent and destructive. Easy to think of it perhaps as - divine?

Black holes do not create life.

Black holes do not create life.

I do sometimes wonder L, if there's absolutely anything you can't turn into an argument (Remember? )

It's of course theoretical physics but a fairly widespread view seems to be that Black Holes are a fundamental and vitally necessary mechanism for the formation of galaxies. The rest following on - sorta thing.

So - yes - they appear to be a core component in life creation, in an indirect sense. Everything seems to have a purpose in the universe it appears to me.

It seems to me it is part of destruction. Creation is taking place elsewhere. where the big bang took place. Perhaps the two are connected in a loop, who knows?
