Earth is the water planet. We humans
are mostly water. If you've ever seen “Solaris” you know that
water could have its own consciousness. We think of Earth as ours –
as belonging to us humans. But because Earth is mostly water, it
really belongs to the water. If aliens from space ever notice Earth
and want to communicate with it, it might not be us humans the aliens
direct their messages to. It may be the water. Will the water
respond? Since we are mostly water, the answer is probably yes. But
will the aliens see humans as the masters of Earth, the most
intelligent race on Earth? Or will they not see “us” at all? Will
they just see a planetary water-intelligence? To them, will we be
nothing special, merely bags of water?
