Re: OT: Alien Contact
scientists have found evidence of non terran oxygen in our atmosphere.
The instrument ferreted out the tiniest molecules of stellar sand and glass, which carried a form of oxygen foreign to the Earth's solar system. These oxygen isotopes -- carrying a different number of neutrons from native oxygen -- lit up under the scanner, Messenger said.
WE ARE BEING INVADED!

Re: OT: Alien Contact
Those Dark Ages only happened in Europe. The rest of the world went on developing new science without them.  The Arabs and Chinese in particular continued to make advances during the European Dark Ages.

Re: OT: Alien Contact
Confused Confucious philosophy with emphasis on harmony discouraged technical advancements and helped to bring about stagnation.

Remember that the European Dark Ages began in roughly 479 AD (something like that) and Lasted until maybe the 15th or 16th century AD. You are saying that the Chinese made no advancements during that period?

Yes, and the Bizantine Empire.
And the chinesse invented the most important tech advance ever: Firearms.
But it was the west the one that took that invention to the highest level.
