Comparing Ra and the Cassiopaeans

[Asolsutsesvyl]

For much of humanity, yes, "intelligent life in the cosmos" are uninterested. But that's because humanity is asleep and it is uninteresting watching an ant colony that is asleep.

I think it goes beyond that. Actually, I had an "ant colony idea" in mind, but a bit differently.

Humans going on to build technological things throughout this solar system would be, to some types of observers, a bit like ants building a big ant heap in a forest, to human observers. No matter how active the ants are, they are not included for participation alongside human beings in political debates about international government.

Likewise, human beings are, in mind, even when awake and active, not at all involved in the kind of stuff various other types of observers may be interested in. Much like to humans, politics is more important than what some ants do in a forest, to some other beings, no-label-for-unknown is more important than everything humans do.

But I mentioned "specialists" who may be interested. That's analogous to the fewer humans who are really into what ants do and go look, and perhaps more than look.
