If it's just us, it seems like an awful waste of space.

"Contact" and "Splice" are both interpretations of Science fiction in the name of Science, and of course they may just be taken for granted.
Among them, Ellie Arroway in "Contact" and Sally Hart in "Splice" are both scientists who sacrificed their lives for their scientific beliefs. The former believes that one day they will discover the existence of other civilizations in the universe to help the entire human society avoid unpredictable destruction; the latter stubbornly insist on creating new genetic species to promote the evolution of human species. It must be admitted that real scientists are lunatics. However, I am full of infinite envy and admiration for the former, but feel repulsion and disgust for the latter. I always thought I was outside of morality and had a different brain frequency, so I dismissed all the so-called right and wrong things, but the truth is that I live in the human realm and can never be exempted from it. I humbly accept the existence of species higher than human beings and their disdain for human beings, but I cannot accept that human beings themselves have gone beyond the so-called Lunli morality and tried to create or create other species by mixing with lower species.
Growing up, I had an indescribable adoration and fear of outer space and the entire universe. If it's just us, it seems like an awful waste of space. That's why I've always believed that the UFO that landed outside my window that day was real. Just like the idea expounded in another film, Powder, all the so-called real things, including human beings, are just proofs of the existence of energy bodies in different forms. I think when we really evolve to a mature stage, we will have the qualifications to really communicate with the so-called aliens. By that stage, death and time and space will cease to exist.

    Science fiction films with connotation (also can not be said to be sci-fi films in the absolute sense, maybe they are real, who knows), exploring the relationship between science and faith, but the foreshadowing in front is a bit too long~~
