		<description>MG thanks for the video.. it was a really interesting indepth view of how much of civilizations we still dont know about.. but there is a point in finding what is beyond the solar system.. the least that could happen is that we can find things we weren't even looking for..</description>

		<description>Hi, I am preparing an exhibition about a parallel between cathedrals an movie and theater sets. I just saw your Behind the Sets pic at frickr  and I was wondering if you allow me to use it.

¿do you have more images of that set?

thanks

		<description>Hi,

I do share your view that there must be something else out there. But what if there is... I don't think it would change things much. On earth there are 3,000 spoken languages.. Did you know that in 1970 there were 6000 languages spoken... a language dies every 2 weeks after the last elder who knows  that language and culture dies. There are tons of civilizations around this earth.. and yet we still are able to ruin their enviroments with our mining and industry. 

What I am trying to get at is this... there is tons more here.. and we still haven't shown it any appreciation. What's the point of finding someone else out there... 

&lt;a href="http://www.ted.com/tedtalks/tedtalksplayer.cfm?key=w_davis" rel="nofollow"&gt;Watch this.. and you'll know what I mean.&lt;/a&gt;

There is more here on earth.. than space can ever offer us in the next 100 years.</description>

		<description>Al-Salaam 3alaikum--
In terms of other galaxies and stuff, the Qur'an mentions that Allah (SWT) created 7 samawaat, and this is often translated as "seven heavens," but I think the correct English wording would be 'skies.' Anyway, we know that we are in the first samaa2/sky; earth is a part of this first samaa2. In the last portion or so of the night (about an hour before 9alaat al-Fajr, I suppose), Allah (SWT) descends to the first samaa2--meaning to where we are--and this is how we know that we are in fact living under the first samaa2.

Science today has figured out that there are numerous other galaxies above ours. This doesn't contradict the Qur'an at all; we have know knowledge of what counts as 1 samaa2; all we know is that there are seven (and seven 'ardhs,' too). I hope this was helpful, and InshaAllah your search for more knowledge will be ever fruitful.

Al-Salaam 3alaikum.</description>
