Thank you for hosting @prettyiggy! Question: do we need to change our answers for the 3rd and 4th prompt each time we post or can we copy paste the previous post? Or maybe do we need to only change the third answer with perception of life?
Moniker: @gngdia
Reason I Want a Starrigrave: I believe they have such pretty colors, I also love any shade of blue, and the palette of this creature is stunning. They also are cute 😊.
Perception of Life Beyond Earth: I like to think that each individual consciousness is a recurring pattern in the Universe and it can re-emerge in a different place at a different time under the right conditions and in the right context (I even made a short Medium post about it). So I believe life can continue beyond Earth. It's much more complex but I won't go into the details, but I'll say that while this idea is similar to the reincarnation theory, it has nothing to do with misticism and magic, but more with probabilities and science (we do see recurring patterns everywhere in the Universe). Since we don't have a clue what consciousness really is yet (some may call it the soul or spirit) I like to believe in this idea. Maybe it's just my human nature, it gives me hope.

Edit: did I get it wrong? Are we talking about life on other planets or if we can live beyond this Earth? Anyways I don't think I will change my answer, it can somehow correlate 😁

Yes, folks, as you may've guessed, @the_egg_hunter has been bequeathing me with the extra 🌠s that brought this contest into being!

@gngdia Welcome!
You may copy/paste Name & Reason.
I think it would be interesting to change up Perception of Life Beyond Earth each time, anything from a one-word response "yes" to a paragraph, as you've so eloquently done ~ to anything in between.
Definitely change up Date and Total # of Posts for each entry

Follow-up: I was looking at the possibility of lifeforms other than our own on planets besides Earth, but it's not a hard and fast rule. If you want to explore humans & other earth beings living on other planets, feel free! There may be a colonization of Tarsiers in the Pleiades, for example 🤩

Got it, thanks! 😊

What a fun idea! I won't be participating (because I only plan on keeping one Starrigrave), but good luck to everyone who does!

P.S. It only seems polite to answer the question, so...

Perception of Life Beyond Earth: I think it's silly to believe that it doesn't exist, even if we may never see it.

@merit, you're welcome to join, if you change your mind. If you win, you can always Auction it for ec or Trade it in exchange for another desired creature 🤩

The Reason I Want a 🌠: They are just the most glorious egg I've ever seen!

My Perception of Life Beyond Earth: From all I've read, the Pleiadians are among the most spiritually & psychically evolved of aliens, showing concern for humans in their hopes of our taking a positive role towards self-preservation and protection of our precious planet

My perception of life beyond Earth: Aliens would be cool to encounter if they do exist.. but we will never know or will we?

Moniker: @gngdia
Reason I Want a Starrigrave: As a creature of space, I find it interesting and its design feels fresh and different.
Perception of Life Beyond Earth: The Universe is mind-bogglingly vast. Our Milky Way alone has 100–400 billion stars, most with planets, and scientists estimate hundreds of millions of rocky worlds in habitable zones where liquid water could exist.
Even if life is rare, with so many opportunities across billions of years and trillions of planets in the observable universe, it's statistically extremely unlikely we're the only one. We haven't searched most places yet, so the silence so far doesn't mean we're alone, it just means the cosmos awaits for us to observe more of it.

Your Moniker: @prettyiggy
The Reason I Want a 🌠: I am obsessed with the beauty of the Starry, their rich colors & ethereal presence cause me to collect them compulsively
Your Perception of Life Beyond Earth: I have a major curiosity about the alleged existence of a wide variety of aliens, whose intentions are said to range from unconditional love to downright self-serving exploitation. An example of the latter would be the Draco Reptilians, who are said to have been below-ground dwellers on planet earth
