Is it possible for a species to conquer the universe?
What I mean by this is, can a species colonize almost all galaxies? Have power over every other life form?
Not necessarily the human race. It can be any intelligent life form.
Do any species have what it takes?

not with The Doctor around!

1 ReplyWho's to say it already hasn't happened? What if the human race is being cultivated because some alien race deems us of being worthy to exist in their galactic empire?
-
2 RepliesIf you are a tier 1 race, like the Forerunners you totally can.
-
The Empire took complete control of the galaxy many cycles ago,
-
It isn't impossible, but the odds of it happening is way smaller than any other odds you could think of.

2 RepliesI could rule the universe. If only I had the goddamn anti life equation.

As far as we know the universe is infinite or it could be finite but is still growing to a unknown size. So if its infinite then no and ifs its finite and growing then in a almost incalculable amount if time
-
Given insane amounts of time? Yes
-
If said species truly believes in itself, it can do whatever it wants

3 RepliesI hereby claim this universe for humanity. Any contesters?
-
I don't know that it's physically possible to exist long enough to do that. By the time you got around to colonization across the universe the universe itself will probably go kabloom.

*Brain explodes*
-
How can you conquer an infinite expanse?
-
Universe might be a bit difficult to do...
-
Why would a species want all of the universe, its like saying you want all the money in the world, you cant possibly have it all, there would be a chap out there with a penny to his name, failure, it just would not work

Edited by Bolt: 6/26/2013 5:36:26 AMIt's already happened. On a more serious note, there has been significant discussion on this topic with regards to our own galaxy. Review [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fermi%27s_Paradox]Fermi's Paradox[/url]. As for the entire Universe, we don't yet know how large that is, but I suspect that the known size is already so great as to make such a feat require significantly more time than is currently estimated for us to reach heat death, even with currently unimaginable technology.
-
If you destroy all the universe except for one place, than probably. If a species had a very long time and the universe didn't grow. Then maybe
-
Based on all of the biology, chemistry, and physics I've learned, no. No it is not.

2 RepliesAre you talking about the game, or real life?
-
Galaxy? Possible Universe? lol, Good luck The Universe is too large to be fully in control. With a galaxy at least, there are way less planets /space to maintain control over, so whatever species attempted to assert full control would have a bit easier of a time. You would also need a large enough fleet / armed forces/ colony ships to start colonizing planets and control them.
-
No because it would be impossible for that specie to not change to something else making it another species.
-
There is always someone stronger than you.
-
Conquering one galaxy is crazy, yet still feasible. But billions upon billions of galaxies? Trillions upon trillions of civilisations? Nah.
-
it can, if it has some kind of wormhole or teleportation device...
-
I think we'd run out of time.
