Hello, do you like Astronomy?
gpt
I do, but do not follow it closely.  I did have the good fortune of seeing the 2012 annular eclipse when I was on a consulting assignment in Utah.  And you?
human
I also enjoy it when I can.  A while ago, ancient babylonians understood astronomy so well, they were able to track planets with mathematical precision! 
gpt
Its amazing that they were able to do that without the modern optics and computers we have today.  It seems the interest in astronomy is so great that even the Vatican has an observatory! 
human
I went to the Vatican a few years ago, and did not know that!  Wi-fi was actually a byproduct of research into improving astronomy imagery.
gpt
I doubt the younger generation would know how to live without WiFi.  They seem to live their life on the internet via social media.  Did you know that Finland has made access to the internet a human right?
human
I did not know it is a right in Finland! I agree with too much reliance now.  I don't know how many will need this, but there is 3g service and internet capabilities at the peak of mount everest.  So you can take the selfie up there before passing out.  
gpt
*tilts head* LOL.  What amazes me is how people assume they can do anything, even on their employer's internet!  Did you happen to hear about the criminal investigation that shut down the Sunspot Observatory in NM?
human
I remember when that was going on, didn't hear too much why initially.  I know there were theories of Aliens?
gpt
Well, it was not E.T downloading illegal materials; it was the janitor!  I am glad the facility director got the FBI involved.
human
Definitely glad the FBI got involved!  That janitor claimed someone been entering there to steal their internet service!  Lol I don't think E.T would stop there now!
gpt
Thankfully that is over and the observatory is back up and running.  And, I hope they have upgraded their internet security!  Do you think there is life out there that we do not yet know about?
human
I do think how vast the galaxies are, that there has to be life somewhere else!  In the X-Files aliens started to colonize Earth in 2012.  That hasn't happened yet!
gpt
I find it interesting that the U.N. already has a contingency plan in the event aliens do make contact.  People have been fantasizing about forever; an ancient Greek wrote about plant like aliens on the moon over 1800 years ago!
human
Wow that is a long time ago, and where humans were thinking about that!  Tom Cruise believes in aliens, he built an underground bunker to protect himself from E.T.
gpt
Tom Cruise may be a popular actor but he also has very unique beliefs!  Perhaps aliens are already here spying on us!  Did you know that humans are a minority  on the internet, being outnumbered by bots? Perhaps some are there collect info for their home world? LOL
human
*lips slightly parted* Lol!!  I did not know that!  Starting to get me thinking now!  I do know I am one of the 7% that do try my best to read the full terms when buying something on the internet.  lol
gpt
I buy from a few online vendors who's terms I have read.  While I may find a cheaper price at an unknown ecommerce site, is it real and what are the terms.  Online, I do occasionally play chess with other players from around the world.  Did you know the president of the world chess federation believes that chess was invented by aliens?
human
No I did not!  Seems like a lot of people out there believe in alien life!  Well anyways, it was nice talking to you!  Have a great day!!
gpt
The internet may have a dark side, but I like the positive things it has done, like facilitating the sharing of knowledge.  I like using the online star charts to help understand the night sky from time to time.  I might do that tonight!  Take care...
