THE..DIFFICULT..SEARCH..FOR..INTELLIGENCE
In our solar system, intelligences have demonstrably emerged with us humans. Loosely based on the good English saying: "You never change a winning team!" that means for me
"Look only for an already successful solar system!"
The problem: With around 3,000 sightings of other planetary systems, not one is similar to ours! ! So ours is a huge exception and for me the other intelligences are too. No wonder SETI hasn't detected anything so far apart from the old WOW signal.
But since there are billions of solar systems, it's worth looking further into our system type. In any case, this is only possible now that we can also recognize “only earth-sized planets”. And that is a decisive factor: They must be earth-level and not earth-like like the much-vaunted (and misleading by name) "super-Earths". Sounds great at first, but you won't find any intelligences on rocky planets up to 10 times the size of Earth. There, the gravitational forces are so great that only animals with a flat, muscular physique can develop. That technical civilizations develop from this - at least for me an absurdity. Flat crocodiles don't have the slightest chance of doing so on Terra either.
So we can forget systems with hot Jupiters (Jupiters orbiting very close to their sun) and super-Earths in this regard. We don't know them in our solar system and that's a good thing. The fact that out of around 3,000 planetary systems not one even resembles ours shows how extremely atypical it is. But what are 3,000 of many billion systems in the Milky Way alone?? So it is worth looking for a solar system twin with ever better telescopes, computers and KI. (Just kidding: It doesn't necessarily have to be "one-egg-twins")

Stream of thoughts: Stories and Memories – for contemplating and for pensive moments (english)
von Heinz Werner
Do we know what home is, what does this term mean for modern nomads and cosmopolitans? Where and what exactly is home?
Haven't we all overlooked or misinterpreted signs before? Are we able to let ourselves go during hectic times, do we interpret faces correctly? Presumably, even today we still smile about certain encounters during our travels,
somewhere in the world, or we are still dealing with them. Not only is travveling educating, but each travel also shapes our character, opens up our view for other people, cultures and their very unique challenges.
Streams of thoughts describes those very moments - sometimes longer, sometimes only for a short time - that are forcing us to think and letting us backpedal. It is about contemplative moments and situations
that we all know.
