- We now know of thousands of planets orbiting other stars. But we know of only planet that hosts life - the Earth.
Most scientists think that life elsewhere in the Universe is likely to exist, but so far there is no evidence that extra-terrestrials exist or that they have visited us. However, we can search for signs of life on distant planets and we are even using radio telescopes to look for messages sent to us by extra-terrestrial civilisations. In this talk Tim will discuss the latest science behind the search for alien life.
Tim is a Professor of Astrophysics and an Associate Director of Jodrell Bank Centre for Astrophysics at The University of Manchester.
Tim’s research concentrates on the study of exploding stars using telescopes around the world and in space, working across the spectrum from radio waves to X-rays.
Tim is passionate about astrophysics and its power to inspire. Well known for his regular contributions to science on TV and radio, he is Jodrell Bank’s host for the hugely popular BBC TV Stargazing Live series and has a monthly space discussion programme on BBC Radio 5 Live.
In 2014, jointly with Professor Teresa Anderson, he was awarded the Kelvin Medal of the Institute of Physics for innovative public engagement, and in 2016 he was elected as President of the UK’s Society for Popular Astronomy.
This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at ted.com/tedx
Title of the talk: Where are all the aliens? Summary of the talk: "I don't know." -Tim O'Brien.
Shocking, eh? LOL
Not shocking. I could’ve answered that question and saved all those people some money. Hahahhahaa
@@semiauto3148 It gives them something to do. Keeps 'em out of trouble. LOL
Pethello All the Aliens are down south, trying to sneak across the border.
The aliens are us. Stop searching!!!
It's funny that we operate our search based off of the assumption that all other life in the universe needs liquid water to survive and not some other substance unique to the evolution of life on their particular planet.
Yes one could label that tendency as being "terracentric"!
Asia Cannon water is the only liquid that is adhesive and cohesive... and holds its temperature well.... and floats when it freezes. freeze any liquid and it sinks. water floats.. allows fish to swim underneath frozen lake....etc
Dave Lospinoso but that is the point exactly. It is the only substance that WE know about. If you think that we have seen or know about all the elements in the universe then you are sorely mistaken.
Even more funny is how nearly everywhere and everybody describes alien creatures like some who have a head, two legs and two arms. Just like us. With the only difference in color, face and other minor things. Wake up, men! Even on Earth live includes much more variety than that!
"It is the only substance that WE know about"
Only substance that we know about? I'm pretty sure water is not the only substance we know :)
Other than that, every substance stable enough and present in our galaxy would also be present on Earth. Earth is not an isolated system. Matter from our entire galaxy is constantly bombarding Earth in the form of dust and little rocks. When large enough comet hits a planet, some of the matter of that planet is ejected into space. There's not a substance in our galaxy that hasn't been shared across its entirety. Every planet contains some trace amount of matter from every other planet in our galaxy.
Is that like a news flash for you or what?
Should’ve been titled “A short lesson on telescopes.”

This talk has been done so many times
And every time about half the comments are the following ....
"Two possibilities exist: either we are alone in the Universe or we are not. Both are equally terrifying." - Arthur C. Clarke
True and we're learning more and more we may not be
@@SMaamri78 are alone until we see .
...
We
Should
Lo e
Each other.
Maybe make your own tedtalk. And enlight us with some new stuff.
What could the alien look like if they came into contact with radio signals?
Great presentation. Finally someone describing all that, what I've always thought but couldn't explain.
"Two possibilities exist: either we are alone in the Universe or we are not. Both are equally terrifying." - Arthur C. Clarke
If we are not alone in the universe it is only terrifying if that being, God, is not loving.
@Clout Lord That would only make sense if we were 'alone' in the universe. My statement was based on the presumption that we are not alone, meaning that God does exist and is either good or bad. I have reason to believe He is good. Though I do agree that the concept of God not existing would be quite terrifying, which is certainly something that kept me up at night as a child.
@Clout Lord As I said, my statement was on the presumption that we are not alone in the universe. If you want to base an argument on the opposite assumption then that is your affair. I do not believe personally that it is possible to have no God, but my belief itself is not enough to remove impossibility. It is either impossible or not regardless of me.
Good and bad are only human concepts in the subjective sense, meaning that we as humans, with often clouded judgement, change our minds out of convenience, needs, and wants, as to what is good or bad. Someone will justify murder to themselves if it benefits them and suddenly it is a good - or even on a societal level. However, good and bad in the objective sense is certainly not a human construct because it goes beyond our blindness. Objective morality has only come to us by means of religion, which the religious believe to be sent by God himself. Considering how self-denying all of God's laws are, if we are talking about the Christian faith, it would seem unlikely to me to be a human construct. No one in the right mind would deny themselves pleasure (if on a surface level seems to harm no one) unless they were told it was wrong by something beyond themselves, and unless they thought there were consequences not only in this life but in the next.
An example of this would be fasting. Many religious have fasted rigorously, not for health benefits, but to deny their own flesh in order to become holy. There is no way that humans, who love pleasure, would ever come up with such a thing unless necessary for health reasons (other than a small percentage of crazies). And the argument that all religious are insane does not quite work either for obvious reasons that I hope need not be explained.
Maybe He's in another galaxy? You clearly no nothing of the concept of God, who is beyond time and the material universe. Why do skeptics always mock faith? That is a rhetorical question by the way. If you wish not to believe then that is your choice. But there is no need to mock me with such a ridiculous premise of God. If God were inside space and time then He would not be God obviously, at least not the Christian one.
The universe is so large. Time is barrier that keeps us from finding life.
@@keithmayhewhammond5357Starting a hypothesis with presumptions and presuppositions, is about as biased as you can get...
I love that roughly 40 people are present at the actual presentation, yet on youtube it has over a million views.
ha..ha..ha...
Great job Tim. Really enjoyed your presentation. Think we’ll know of a few within the next ten to twenty years. 👍
No, we won't. If we send a signal out today it would take 4 years to get to the nearest outside planet and another 4 to get back as received. That's 8 years of your 10 to 20 schedule and we don't even know what to listen for.
"The surest sign intelligent life exists is that none of it has tried to contact us." -Watterson
Very funny!!
@Donald Mackay What about all these reports of alien abductions there's your evedance.
Watch ancient aliens
Would you want to contact Earthlings if you are an alien from another system? I don't blame an alien species for not doing so.
Any intelligent being that has developed the technology to travel the immense distances between habitable bodies in space--and nonliving drones with the ability to interact with and learn about interstellar or intergalactic space during the voyage would probably be what is traveling those distances--would most likely not be impressed with the human race. Humans might be given about as much respect as humans do to bacteria.
Why must we assume that ' other ' intelligent extraterrestrial life need water to survive. We seem to base this research on our earthly needs.
like exactly they could be made of phsyically superior biology than us humans, might not need to eat, or breathe, I know it sounds science fictiony and unbeilievable but its not as crazy as trying to imagine before the big bang to the beginning and then going back even further than that. Basically these aliens could possibly be superhuman in biology to the point where they could just wipe earth out. Yeah lets give them an invitation before we even figure out how to work together as a species.
Water is one of the most abundant elements like silicon and carbon, thats way.
Well assuming we know all of the most common elements of the universe. WE can pretty much guess, that the solution for life. Could very well be the same, everywhere in the universe.
When we look at earth. All of life needs water. Water is really common. Water is the key, for more than just life.
You need water to have a sustainable atmosphere. Unless, life can begin in just blank space.
We also drink Mountain Dew and buy lottery tickets. Which I consider a guilty pleasure…I hope the Aliens engage in similar behavior on their planet(s).
Gotta work with what we know, I see what you are saying though.
The light from this talk finally made it
to sum up the video: where are the aliens ? = we dont know
i just saved you 15 mins of your life
Gd LOP thank you I’ll go now
It's worth the watch though.
Unlikely, as most people watch the video before reading the comments. You probably increased the time at this upload by about 30 seconds!
So true
David G. OKAY
Carl Sagan said all this things 40 years ago in the Cosmos series, I like this guy he is cool but come on I was expecting something more.
I have a feeling he was not talking to a room packed with astrophysicists and chemists. Even then dumbed down as it is, there's an awful lot of bewildered faces and arm folding going one there.
Real lucky he gauged it well, could you imagine if he pulled out probability charts and spectroscopy images of other stars during planetary transit. Their little head would have melted into their necks.
like you would understand it too conceited twerp
julittok: Yes he said it 40 years ago. But, that was 40 years ago. It needed to be said again because the population under 40 years old has not yet heard it and they outnumber the rest of us!
"It needed to be said again." True. Also, 40 years ago the chorus was 'give us the technology and we will find the evidence.' Well, we are developing the technology, so it is valid to ask 'where is the evidence?' Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence, but maybe it hints at it.
julittok Most TED talks ultimately say nothing.
They are here and have been for awhile. Fasinating and truthful documentary? TRAVIS the travis walton story.
thischannel of course. Just like people say they found some Bigfoot hair or seen lochness monster. It’s all for ratings or to make a little money....they always find gullible people that believe their stories..
here like at your house?

Amazing information! Thanks alot.welldone

"Innumeranble suns exist, innumerable earths revolve around these suns in a manner similar to the way the seven planets revolve around our sun. Living beings inhabit these worlds." -Giordano Bruno 1584
And they burnt him alive, for saying so! Compare their science, to ours, its very similar, Religion then, Science is like a cult religion now. Dont dare say something that isnt mainstream, watch this.. UFOs are real
☝️did the government take that guy out? 😂
@@thewaythetruthandthelife4952 No the church did
@@thewaythetruthandthelife4952 Hilarious, getting lit on fire by people that say they follow Christ, for saying the truth. But they didnt believe that. Same as science today. Like a cult they have their beliefs and if some evidence doesnt match up they ignore it, fire people, ridicule them. See Hueyatlaco. See Nampa Figurine. See see see see see........
I'll answer it for you - we are not alone!
I agree! In fact, I know one alien personally: Jesus Christ.
Yes you are!
David Watson which planet is he from.
@David Watson probably laughing at humanity's misery
Thanks for the talk.
“We Are Not Alone. We Have Never Been Alone.”
Thank you for your information. I truly don't believe these "things" are interstellar travelers, but inter dimension travlers of both theirs and our time and space.
Right..there home would be so far away that we would see them as they was billions of years ago ..so they would have to travel like you said
I wish your belief was more of an opinion. I wish more people required more hard evidence to form those beliefs. The fact that I want something to be true is not enough to believe that it is true.
@@nominus1138 You belive in an expanding univers like most people yet you never studied the phenomenon for yourself correct? You believed in a Theory called the BIG Bang with ever shifting information? Only to find James Web telescope is proving this theory false. How many "things" you actually believe in without any research yourself to prove a matter as fact?
My proof is how YAHWEH changed the direction of my life for the better by the Blood of Yeshua in the Gospel truth Romans 10:9-10, 13. Not a fairlytale nor unproven to me. Research for yourself.
We are the aliens
Vax x thank you
one of many.
Vax x We are aliens to the aliens.
we are the aliens? don't have a dictionary, eh?
Vax x we are not aliens in regards to Earth. We evolved here. This is home.
great explantion. answered many of my qestions
Never learnt so much in such a short time. Nice one.
You should get out more.
I think if there is life out there it is very spread out. Because in the history of the earth (the best place we know of for life to have started) life started once in 5 billion years. It was nearly wiped out several times and life evolving beyond single celled organisms took a very long time to start. There may also be a great barrier. So I'm not to optimistic.
Life comes first. Matter later. Everything starts with a thought and the thoughts accumulate into a mind. This mind never dies, though a lot of its memories fade quickly away at the end of life in a body. The essential you remains, regardless of your own belief in that body.
The Universe is almost 14 billion years old, the Sun is 6 billion yrs, and our Earth is 4.5 billion yrs. That gives other stars and solar systems a few billion years head start. I think Earth and the human species, is very late to the game. “We are not alone. We have never been alone.”
Imagine some far off civilization being taken over by robots that we sent off
I do worry about the propulsion systems on probes to go so deeply into space. If the probe has a difficulty and crashes onto one of these planets, the outcome for any life on this planet is grim, because of us.
Very well explained
In the hitchhikers guide to the galaxy they also asked the question what is the meaning of life and everything. The answer was 42.
Ah, yes. The year of menopause.
TEDx Talks but each time he says "hoondred", you gotta take a shot whiskey.
Miyazaki Namito “huuuundreeed years”
We are NOT alone, the nearest star with habitable planets is 137,000 years away with current tech.
If we all evolved at a similar rate as other planets in our galaxy then no one has travelled to another planet, have we?????
No one has the tech developed to travel that distance yet.
Narrow band of time to develop technologically from Stone Age to where we find ourselves today. So Stone Age lasted 3m years until 4000 years ago when we started working with metal. Electricity hasn’t been around for very long. Flying has only been around for 100 years and 60 years after it was invented, we were walking in the moon. It’s exponential. We also exponentially develop weapons to use against each other. One exponential curve will negate the other. If good tech wins, our technological development will accelerate. If the bad technology wins, our civilisation will become the myths carved into stone for future civilisations to discover. Other worlds would have a similar path. They’d only need to be 300 years further along the good exponential curve to be so far advanced we’d call them aliens.
If we all evolved at a similar rate as other planets in our galaxy then we'd have detected the radio waves from someone only 137,000 years away with current tech. Thats the point.
No one? you sure?
@@DeputyNordburg Exactly
@@DeputyNordburg at 137,000 light years away radio signals would be undetectable against the background noise of the cosmos.....
Very interesting video. Thanks.
It's crazy to think when u look up at a shining star that light could be years if not decades old that is beautiful to know
And in many cases, millions of years ago..
Most of the time the light is much older than that ...
I was smiling at my wall about a quarter of the way in
Love his Manchester joke at the start, had about four days of sun this summer....
I only knew about the "Wow!" signal. Thanks...
There exist a number of mathematical formulas that describe the probability for life in the universe. And with the age (14++ billions, 200+ billion light-years across) etc there is no doubt (in my opinion) that there are plenty of life out there. Now, how much is advanced, simple, complex is then still very open.
And who knows, maybe one day we will be able to find intelligent life in the universe...
The Astrobiological Copernican Limit equation says there may be up to 44 advanced alien civilizations living in the Milky Way Galaxy.
This whole talk was about intelligent life. There probably is some form of life under the ice of one or more of Jupiter's moons right now but that doesn't count.
He should start the lecture by saying he doesn't know where are the aliens instead of wasting my time to listen to his full clip. Otherwise half of what he said I knew and the other half I am not interested in.
Oh, so you thought he was going to tell you which planet in which galaxy all of the aliens have been chilling on all this time? You needed him to tell you upfront that he didn't know that information? I find that incredible that you couldn't figure that out yourself.
funny josh
Gerry C after about 100, we (humans) are unable to really grasp a number. 1.8 million and 8 trillion all just comes across as a shitload. you're not special
@Gerry C agreed! Is not difficulty to comprehend but to quantify, which is a very different thing.
Goodness , I could give this presentation and I left school at 16 with 6 'O' Levels and a CSE in Motor Vehicle Studies.
Where are all the aliens? Too far away to ever visit here.
Somewhere, Bob Lazar sits shaking his head , quietly saying "I tried."
Well said, Jahi! In the description of this TEDx talk, Tim O'Brien says "there is no evidence that extra-terrestrials exist or that they have visited us." The fact is, there is a MOUNTAIN of evidence that extra-terrestrials exist and that they have visited us. But the so-called "experts" simply refuse to accept that this evidence has merit. So I'm shaking my head right along with Bob Lazar.
@@linguist2k You, me and the thousands of eye witness accounts from aviators, scientist and the list goes on. Reputable people with something to lose. I guess according to people like O'Brien, THEY ARE ALL JUST SIMPLY LYING.
how do you define it from false news?
I've been thinking long and hard about this. I am a Alien. There it is.
Aliens are just the future version of us as we are to our past.
Where are all the aliens? They are working at your local quicki mart.
"beam me up, scotty"
An adventure in speed-speech mostly. Not much content packed in there,
If you think the BBC and Fox News would tell 7 billion people aliens have come to earth, you need a Tin foil hat.
Yup sooo true!!! Wonder why they didn't air gram Hancocks speech ..
When they do tell us, it will be a staged alien invasion
There are literally billions of planets in the visible universe, so why do some people insist that conscious beings are restricted to this small planet ?
Visions of grandeur perhaps, or even idiocy ?
The lack of skepticism in today's society (as evidenced by so many of the posts in this thread) is beyond frightening.
I say after the us navy incidents, one needs to be mighty brave to say “no evidence”.
Agreed
OnKeyboards ... for reals. It’s all crickets 🦗 from these cats.
Our own human writers for star trek write into their stories about aliens what is know as the prime directive. If we can see that this prime directive makes sense why would aliens not actually feel that same way about us.
Aliens are busy doing actual important things while their kids are playing a MMORPG called "Life on Earth" 😉 😉 😉
Maybe plenty of aliens have observed us. Then they decided to move swiftly on. Can't blame them.
i like how he simplifies big numbers into comments like 50 stars each per person on earth.
It seems that the question has now been answered, by of all things, the U.S. Navy.
No doubt they exist. Gov is hiding info
I'm personally not so interested in whether or not there are extraterrestrials, but there is definitely compelling evidence of aerial technology that has been witnessed and filmed that significantly defies any known aircraft that we have. I've witnessed myself on a few occasions these and they had no wings or any characteristics of any aircraft I've ever seen. One sighting I had was a very irregular shape and was rolling around in all directions, all the while going at a terrific speed
Trust me...there are aliens..do some research...
Waldorf : I wonder if there is life on another planet.
Stattler: Why, you don't have one on this one!
No evidence? Watch The disclosure Project.
Good point
@David Watson Junk to a Junk intellect.
Its disinfo
There are also the declassified videos of the Tic-Tac UFO's. And, in my case, having been within 20 feet of a UFO in Ohio.
What if aliens have visited us, but in a form that we can't comprehend or understand (yet)?
Doom Wizard Talks like this focus our attention on the exterior, the Macro. What if aliens exist at the Plank scale?
we would appreciate it if you did not speak of such things.when we are ready you will all know at the same time.
john- that is pretty much it, in a nutshell. they've never NOT been here and when earth can take it, they'll be all up in our grills. it just so happens that time is now.
+leloodallasmultipass please do not pester me with blithering brain diarrhea, as I said before ,when I'm ready to tell you ,I'LL TELL YOU ALL!!! now begone peasant ,back to the primordial swamp you just oozed out of
there's nothing for me there now.
Haven't the US air force already released images?
My dog watched this video and now he wants to be a pug.
Where are all the aliens ? well half of them are living next door and a bunch more are just up the street
Your government let them in
Wanna find aliens? Point those things toward the ocean.
Agreed. We explored less than 5% of the oceans.
Why do we think anyone from another planet would even want to come here, when its obvious, that they are far more advanced than we are...
The problem with searching for extra-terrestrial life is that we are biased by living on earth. On earth, life is everywhere and nearly every when that you look for it. Life is easy to come by on earth. There's a bias that abiogenesis is inevitable because that's what happened on earth. In fact abiogenesis is so statistically unlikely that even this vast universe isn't nearly big enough for it to have beaten the odds for it happening twice in one universe.
Aliens learned from what happened to Jesus.
_"Nah, were good up here."_
"Where are they" is no question. The right question is: where are people who deserve their attention?. Excluding big ego cientists, generals and polititians. Better they stay away.
flavio chab Truth! Aliens more than likely made earth a no fly zone once the Chinese invented gun power way back when. I can see it now, "Oh no not again, why does this always happen"
You are speaking as if these once tribal A N I M A L S are morally better, incredibly good angel type beings. The truth is that all beings in this universe will act similar to us.
It may be useful to try and listen to a different frequency, right? Radio is a super limited way to look for a sign.
They use radio because they know no one else uses it!we are thousands if not millions of years behind other races!
Gee, imagine that, aliens who have a way of thinking that is alien to humans.
Join us... we are among you! We👽are, watching you.. we've been here before an will be there after.
@@vitali-opal-and-gem toned down version of god/ knowledge is hidden from us?
I have aliens under my sofa
This is so simple to work out?
1: The numbers of inhabited planets out there is so huge it is beyond our comprehension. It is into hundreds of quadrillions.
2: Given that humans in terms of design are just a logical response to environment, it is likely that every ‘Earth twin’ will follow a similar process and give rise to similar life forms and the same evolutionary pattern. So there are zillions of ‘human types’ out there.
3: Given that ‘human type’ or other ‘types’ are so common the numbers make it virtually impossible to visit each one? And why would anyone want to? When they are all pretty much the same?
4: distance is so great that even 100 quadrillion (15 zeros) advanced civilisations scattered across the universe would seem to each other ‘where is everyone’
5: the percentage of advanced civilisations that have solved intergalactic travel is going to be so tiny compared to the number of inhabited planets, and with inhabited planets being pretty much the same in many cases, it’s going to be unlikely that anyone will ever be visited, and most inhabited planets are likely to be of little interest.
6: if you are a galaxy hopping advanced civilisation, then you are only going to be interested in species that are highly unusual or different, and as our planet isn’t particularly unusual, then it’s hardly goi g to give rise to any life forms that billions of similar planets have not also produced. Truth is, we don’t hear from anyone because we are not particularly special and we haven’t heard anyone else yet because we have only just started to listen.
To us life seems rare, that’s because of the distances involved and the scale of the universe as well as our technology limitations. But to another species that has mastered travel life is going to be incredibly common because they can see the whole. So why would we imagine for a second that with access to everything that we would stand out in any way and be of interest as our civilisations is just one ant among trillions of ants. An advanced civilisation’s perspective is going to be completely different to ours.
This is entirely my own theory. If we want to answer this question then we have to first consider whether we have the answer now (already being visited) , or.......we listen and look harder, or we make ourselves more interesting than the other trillions of unremarkable planets with bipeds walking around on them in different stages of development so widely scattered across our universe.
Looking for Earth type planets and focussing on water and oxygen and habitable zones is entirely sensible as we know to some extent what life designs such planets produce through environmental response and evolution. If we were entirely an ocean planet for example we wouldn’t have legs, and we know that if something flies then it needs to follow the laws of symmetry and aerodynamics. Design is a universal principle, and at least we can predict what sort of life this sort of planet produces.
They would need to apply for tourist visas. Stay permit is out of the question
You could just say Drake equation and save yourself 15 minutes here
Pop singer drake knows nothing about astronomy
The Drake Equation only calculates how many civilisations we should be able to detect. I've seen and heard several figures thrown around, someone even suggested that even with the lowest possible "settings" the equation came out with around 10,000 civilisations out there in our Galaxy alone.
With all that possible life you would think we would be able to hear something and yet our heavens are silent.
So we are left with a few possibilities:
A) We are indeed alone in the universe.
B) We are the first civilisation to reach our current stage of development - A very scary thought!
C) Other Civilisations have developed different methods or more direct ways of transmitting information.
D) Other civilisations know something we don't and have adopted radio silence in an effort to hide their existence.
I wonder if there were 6 Earth like twins that had our exact level of technology that all would pop up evenly around the Universe. For discussions sake, lets also assume they are in similar types of galaxies and locations within that arm of their galaxy and orbiting sun like stars like our own, etc. Most of them would likely be expanding away from us also as the universe itself expands. My question would be, how long would it take for us to detect a signal coming from their planet if we knew where exactly to look?
John, let me make one small yet very significant change to your first statement. The Drake Equation only calculates how many civilisations we should be able to detect if all the assumptions the terms represented are true and correct. As we learn more and more about our local solar system and our local view of the universe, we necessarily make changes to the values of the term and even the terms themselves. As we view more and more exoplanets, we will have to make changes to the equation.
Right now, however, the equation does not represent our current evidence and observations. In other words, the equation says one thing and we have nothing. But we must keep looking because what we find will point to the truth; whatever that truth may be.

Concerning Fermi paradox -and SETI
> Please Bear with me, while I propose a hypothetical.
Several 1000 years in the future. And we have discovered principals of
physics that we had not been aware of. Several thousand more and we have
learned how to manipulate (Take advantage of these principals) and in
fact journey to another world.
> We find intelligent beings, all be it quite primitive.Also these
particular beings are gigantic and prone to extreme violence.(With both
raw physical speed and strength, and armed with crude but deadly
weapons.)
> We of course would want to study them but it would be most
responsible of us not to interfere with their world (Societies,
metaphysical beliefs, religions, economics etc.)
> So,What would be the prudent course of action to further our
scientific study of these people?
> I would suggest top priority : 1 We insure the safety of our
Scientist.
We could do this by implementing a protocol including confining our
interactions with them on a- one subject at a time basis (No more than a
few individuals at a time) Further we would want to quickly disable
them (Employing A quick an effective way to physically paralyze them
while not effecting their ability to think and respond to our request.)
And 2 : To maintain our non interference policy ; We would want to use a
drug or other method to blank out their memory of our interaction with
them; as this would prevent any individual "Trauma" and further avoid A
possibly negative interaction (Unpredictable consequences)with the
society as a whole.
> Would you have any other suggestions, on how we could best deal
with this hypothetical Future Scientific study and interaction with
alien beings and that alien world?
[ In this scenario, it would be they who would be perplexed by the fermi
paradox and we the answer.]

aliens exist ask the alien
Not much to add to the conversation about the possibility of alien life here. But a nice presentation. Of course any sort of radio telescope device would only detect technologically advanced life, advanced enough to send signals. 150 years ago we couldn't do that here on earth.

The best way to locate extraterrestrial life is through the location of exoplanets. I get the impression that with this method all they have achieved is waste of time and resources and nothing concrete has arrived.

Question: 'Where are the aliens?' Answer: 'we are way too unevolved at a personal level yet for them to even be interested in an encounter....'
There are no aliens. It's a spiritual universe.
Then again, we study bacteria.
I believe aliens have visited this planet before they probably just went somewhere where no one lives and thought "Ok next planet."
And what makes you think that?
Aliens are the only one who know whether they visited. But this guy does!... 😅😅😅😂😂
The speed of light is not the fastest measurement of speed... the speed of thought is faster.
Well thats 15 mins gone.
What if aliens can't be perceived because of limits of our perception?
The fact is they can be perceived, take a look at some of the most famous UFO cases and documentaries like "I know what I saw" and the evidence is in your face.
Most people are aware of their existence so perhaps that's why we perceive them. 🤔

We are annunaki
Maybe at a certain point in a advanced civilization they realize it's better to not let other aliens know that they exist
Too late for that now, for us; ever since we started emitting radio-electric waves we've been literally glowing in the dark.
.....And He spoke it into existence!
Think, McFly, think. Do you commonly joy-ride around in Watts or Detroit or south-side of Chi-Town? No, of course not. Why? Those are seedy, run-down neighborhoods. Don't you think that creatures advanced enough to out wit space-time would do so for the pleasure of cruising around in the galactic ghetto? Of course not.
We are the aliens, haven't seen ancient history? Crop circles?
and now, moving lights in the sky.
