Can multi-species civilization be possible in the universe?

When we are thinking about the situation that the alien race will meet another alien race there are two possibilities. The first possibility is that those alien species are starting diplomatic relations and the second possibility is that they will go to war. The thing is that the technically advanced civilizations that can travel to another solar system should realize that the war between civilizations would be deadly or at least causes extreme damage.

The requirement for contact with aliens is interstellar travel. Without interstellar travel, contact is impossible on the physical level. But if the species is highly advanced it can create extremely powerful lasers that can cause damage even on an interstellar scale. The interstellar laser system can base on a mirror or a large group of mirror satellites. That is pointing their radiation to one large laser system.

The advanced civilizations must have some kind of technology that can use as a weapon. The lasers that are planned to use to push solar sails to Alpha Centauri can turn into weapons. And that is the thing that causes criticism against that project The interstellar lasers would be far more powerful than those lasers that are planned to use to send solar sail to Alpha Centauri.

Those systems are needed to protect civilizations against meteorites. And they can use laser or antimatter technology.

This is the reason why the interstellar- or Kardashev-scale 2+ civilizations would probably choose communication and diplomacy. Things like Death Stars and antimatter weapons are the things that might help to tolerate each other when the interstellar civilizations are meeting.

So the interstellar civilizations are probably not a threat to each other. Interstellar travel requires a certain type of behavior, and that means those aliens would remove aggressive behavior from their race. That thing can happen by using genetic engineering, where aggression and narcism are removed from their genomes.

But as we see aggressive behavior and things like willing to destroy the other species depends on the culture. The thing is that the interstellar civilizations must be mature enough that they finish their wars and start to work for the goal that gives them the ability to travel to the stars. The highly advanced technology makes those species hard to destroy.

Will humans survive the sun's red giant stage?

"As the Sun matures into a Red Giant, the oceans will boil and Earth will become uninhabitable." (The Conversation, The sun won’t die for 5 billion years, so why do humans have only 1 billion years left on Earth?) Sooner or later, all stars use their hydrogen. And then they turn into red giants. Sun is a yellow G spectral class star that turns into a white dwarf. But before that, the sun will turn larger. The sun turns red and that means. It starts to send more infrared radiation. This thing will turn Earth into a hellish temperature that vaporizes water from Earth. It's possible. That Earth will also vaporize with Venus and Mercury. Some scientists say that we have only 1 billion years to move farther in the solar system. The habitable zone will go to the distance of Jupiter and Saturn, and maybe humans find a safe place in those distant moons. It's possible that before Sun will grow too large humans make large groups of mirror satellites or large shields that sho...

Metamaterials can change their properties in an electric- or electro-optical field.

"Researchers have created a novel metamaterial that can dynamically tune its shape and properties in real-time, offering unprecedented adaptability for applications in robotics and smart materials. This development bridges the gap between current materials and the adaptability seen in nature, paving the way for the future of adaptive technologies. Credit: UNIST" (ScitechDaily, Metamaterial Magic: Scientists Develop New Material That Can Dynamically Tune Its Shape and Mechanical Properties in Real-Time) Metamaterials can change their properties in an electric- or electro-optical field. An electro-optical activator can also be an IR state, which means. The metamorphosis in the material can thermally activate. AI is the ultimate tool for metamaterial research. Metamaterials are nanotechnical- or quantum technical tools that can change their properties, like reflection or state from solid to liquid when the electric or optical effect hits that material. The metamaterial can cru...

The new observations and observation tools are revolutionizing nanotechnology and the way of thinking in physics.

ScitechDaily.com "A new study has overturned a fundamental principle of physics by demonstrating that similarly charged particles can attract each other in a solution, with the effect varying between positive and negative charges depending on the solvent. This discovery has significant implications for various scientific processes, including self-assembly and crystallization". (ScitechDaily, Opposites Attract, Likes Repel? Scientists Overturn Fundamental Principle of Physics) The research reveals the importance of solvent structure at the interface in determining interparticle interactions, challenging long-held beliefs and indicating a need for a re-evaluation of our understanding of electromagnetic forces.
