A Dialogue of Rolf Dobelli with Avi Loeb

<p><strong>ROLF:&nbsp;</strong>If you find an extraterrestrial piece of equipment and it has a button on it, would you press it?</p> <p><strong>AVI:</strong>&nbsp;No, I want to first understand what the function of this button is &mdash; by taking it to the laboratory. It&rsquo;s sort of like with humans: you don&rsquo;t want to press any buttons of a human before you come to know that human.</p> <p><strong>ROLF</strong>: And then what?</p> <p><strong>AVI</strong>: Most likely it will teach us something we don&rsquo;t know. Because our science and technology are extremely premature. Quantum mechanics was discovered a century ago. We still don&rsquo;t fully understand it, and it&rsquo;s a fundamental facet of our reality. We don&rsquo;t have a theory that unifies quantum mechanics and gravity. We know very little.</p> <p><a href="https://avi-loeb.medium.com/a-dialogue-of-rolf-dobelli-with-avi-loeb-293201fdec57"><strong>Read More</strong></a></p>
