Solaris - The Creepy World of Stanislaw Lem [Science Fiction and Reality] 

"Solaris" 1961 best sci-fi novel ever than "The Invincible" 1964

I just wanted to find a short video of the Solaris ocean

We are not alone. We are just homebodies

I liked the first half of this video, but I truly don't understand why the second half is filled with random images and shitty music wtf

Solaris is probably an energy organism of love. A feel good energy.

I like the video, found it fascinating. Intelligence is Curious by Nature. Fact is Stranger Than Fiction. It's a very big universe, no telling what awaits out there..

Dumb caption - there was nothing "creep" neither about Mr. Lem nor about his literature. He was one of the most educated human beings and one of the most profound thinkers!

First view,like,comment and share 🙂

Solaris, but not Despite the galactic surveys of untold millions of stars, and the rapt attention of countless electronic eyes and ears, the major question in astrophysics remained unanswered. Where is everybody? Was earth alone privileged to have life, or did it, could it exist elsewhere in the universe, and must it exist on other worlds? The near universal opinion was that it had to, but that there was something missing in the equations of the universe. Perhaps life existed, but then died out, or in an advanced form felt that we were unworthy for contact, or perhaps worthy of conquest. Whatever the reason, the universe, alive with the constant voices of unreasoning and unthinking forces, was in a very peculiar and perhaps ominous way silent. Then a solution was proposed. If mankind could not travel to each corner of the universe to inspect it for life, perhaps the universe could come to it. The new supercomputers were the answer, that if shy of intelligence, were not bereft of near unlimited computing power. The forces and facts of nature were well known, but if nature can cook off life somewhere, then it could do the same in the lab. In this case, not the actuality but the possibility of life was the question. An emulated universe, with each star and planet conceived individually within an immense cyberspace, would tell the tale, and reveal whether we were alone. The data were fed into the machine, and the scientists did not have to wait long. The scientists breathlessly awaited an answer, and when it came it was remarkably terse, certain, positive, and horrific. Life was indeed a feature of the universe it said, and it was universally seeded among many of the stars. However, life on earth was impossible, it could never arise from or even exist on earth. Still we were here, or seemed to be, and but to find the answer, one only had to go outside a look up in the midnight sky. The scientists were stunned, and the results were quickly discounted as a software quirk, and soon the instruments of the earth were focused again on a silent universe. One scientist however was convinced, and on one lonely night looked up at a familiar star quickly crossing the horizon. “It was you, you all along!” he cried despondently. “We are not alone! It was you all along, you fine bastards!” ------------------- It was mediocre star in a quiet and sparsely occupied part of an average galaxy. Beyond the first four planets circling its sun, all dead worlds, lay a fifth, a gaseous giant circled by bands of color, and in in its center, a large red spot. It was like its kin across the universe, composed of tumultuous seas of particles, whose chance organization favored replication, and from there it became, well, complicated. It could not travel, but it could think, and observing the volcanic and lifeless form of the third planet from the sun, thought about the possibilities of the molding of that orbiting clay. from Planck Length

Who did the artwork for the thumbnail?

I absolutely love the book but dislike the films

I want to know why it sends another copy of the woman. I am referring to the movie. Like one is doomed to die, yet another one is there again. Implying what? What if that would be a kid? A woman of African-American descent? Is it good or bad energy the planet project?

Sci fi that's all

What's this ,,creepy"bass voice guy are talking about?
