Secrets are only interesting because they're secret. Aliens, do they exist? Do other forms of unperceivable creature exist, or can exist, on earth or in outer space? And is contact possible? And what if instead of space, we're talking about the multiverse? Quantum potentiality is a freaky concept. Is infinite just a mathematical concept?

We need conspiracy theories, they're part of human nature. We  need answers, we need to make sense of things, we need to cope. But assumptions are the discriminating factor here. Our level of comprehension is strictly tied to our ability to keep an open mind and learn new things that might be in contrast with what we previously assumed to be true. Also, what is reality? Humanity is at the very beginning at connecting and communicating, and the future looks scary, and mysterious but then, in the end, we don't know anything at all.

What defines success in life is individualistic, and arbitrary. It's about the how rather than the what, it's a matter of attitude towards life. A priori and a posteriori knowledge need to collaborate the same ways as science and philosophy need to collaborate, in order to help each other advance.

Experiencing life or searching for meaning, what is more complicated? Which one requires more effort, and is one better than the other? Are we built to feel things?

How is finding a cure for ageing and death going to affect our perception of time? Is time an absolute concept or is our perception of time connected to our human life-span? Or is it just a reference point that helps us measure the decaying of energy and matter from our personal and limited perspective? And similar irrelevant questions :)

How do philosophy and psychology influence science? And, almost unrelated, is time travel possible?

What can a time traveler hypothesis teach us about free will?

How would a time traveler behave? Would they be free to deliberate about their time traveling escapades?

Perhaps we live in a simulation, or maybe we're just brains floating in void, imagining reality. Would that even matter? And what would Berkeley think?

How does the universe work? Does it reset, eventually? Does it come back in cycles over time? And what about conformal cyclic cosmology, and entropy, and the Big Bang? Could another universe outside of our Universe exist? And where does the Universe end? I could keep asking questions, but you get the point...
