As we begin to explore other worlds in search for life or more specifically other intelligent life; presuming one could call humans intelligent, we must consider how we may communicate and what sensory perceptions these off World life forms may have?On our Earth most species have similar sensory organic features such as; Ears to hear, eyes to see, taste buds to taste, noses to smell and nerve endings to feel. But some species on Earth use sonar and other senses that not all creatures have or enjoy the benefits from you see? So, which sensors and senses will intelligent life forms on other planets have? Well this is an interesting topic, which recently came up in an online think tank when one guest member stated;"As far as sensory perceptions go, these could also be completely different. They will most likely have at least the same senses as ours, and perceive light in some fashion, although depending on the kind of sun their planet has they may see very differently than we do. I make this assumption because radiation from the sun, and the charge in our atmosphere is one of the key elements of evolutionary mutation."Perhaps and much of this sounds extremely logical indeed. But they may not have all these senses or even light for that matter. They may live in total darkness like many species at the bottom of the ocean or in deep caves on Earth. If there is no atmosphere they may not need to hear, as there would be nothing to hear anyway. Nevertheless this subject is a fascinating one and requires much more thought. So consider all this in 2006.Lance Winslow
