      Title of the video is not correct. We see them here on Earth for centuries already. They just do not want to contact us. They have rare contacts only with some individuals or just watching us like we watch wild animals in African Sahara.

    It's a mere open question with so many contributing factors to the solution it doesn't even have real implications to the life in the universe.
    1) as intelligence is only one of many survival traits its evolution is not granted on a living planet. this alone narrows the multi-planet civilizations into minimum and also limits their technological development due to time potential of the single home planet
    2) all species evolve into the specific conditions of their planet, meaning that any migration to other planets and stars will always require full scale terraforming to be possible, which is a major technological step that most of the intelligent life probably won't reach (we haven't)
    3) the life expectancy of a civilization might not be very long on a cosmic scale, narrowing down the amount and level of technological civilizations born and the chance they spread to other systems
    4) the obvious vast distances of space. the distances are so massive it narrows down the spreading potential of the civilizations again into a fraction of the already small. this also means that those few civilizations who reach this level are bound to spread absurdly slowly across the galaxy, and probably never be able to spread onto another galaxies
    5) the space is probably absolutely filled with small space gravel (leftover from planetary collisions and formations) that's nearly impossible to shield but capable of annihilating any unshielded spaceship colliding onto it at traveling speeds. this is especially true inside the solar systems, greatly reducing the amount of civilizations to ever spread out to the stars, as any collision will end an entire colony
    6) any radio and similar wave signs of a civilization is minuscule at the cosmic scale, meaning the signs will get lost and distorted to the sheer volume of the background noise of space, and also probably also weakened to nonexistence by the collisions with all the clouds and other matter filling the space. it is also undefined what kind of wave trace should a civilization leave at its different stages of technological development, meaning we don't really even know what we are looking for
    7) only technological civilizations give any detectable radio or similar wave trace of themselves to the space, ruling out literally 99,999...% of all life in the universe. while very high concentrations of life technically can be detected via telescopes, we have just barely discovered this technology ourselves and are only starting to study the exoplanets for traces of possible life. and the possibilities of all the different signs a life could leave in its planets trace is not defined, nor is it said that all life will ever effect their planet so much its visible to space.
    and these are just from the top of my head. it has literally so many contributing factors and solutions that fermi paradox being called a paradox by anyone actually studying life has to be either ideological or paid opinion.

      Due to the sheer vastness of the universe I do truly believe that there is life out there, however, I think the odds for two interplannetary civilizations to overlap with their technology simultaniously so they can interact is extremely small. Imagine that we finally reach the first exoplanet and we land and see life, in a single celled form, a primordial soup that would take at least half a billion years to evolve to multicellular lifeforms. Where will we be? are we going to wait for 500m years? We won't even be the same species anymore.
      So perhaps this has happened to Earth as well, perhaps aliens visited 1b years ago for example and perhaps another alien civilization, completely unrelated to the other visited 85m years ago. The odds that they would arrive during this modern age is just so extremely small... but of course I can only speculate :)

    People today mostly grew up with Star Trek and Star Wars and just for some reason assume this will be possible some day. We have a hard time understanding the huge distances within our solar system. I doubt most of us can appreciate the distance involved with interstellar travel. It will most likely never happen, why leave when you can’t be sure what is at your destination and you already have huge amounts of resources within theoretically possible distances within your solar system? I believe intelligent life could be out there but it doesn’t matter because they will never attempt physical contact.

      Its very possible life could be closer to us but we or them have no clue because of how massive space is.
      I mean we are seeing light that technically is hundreds if not thousands of years old.
      Its hard to think of space because of how big it really is. You could travel for thousands of years and still only be less than a few Galaxies from your own.

    The human body is simply incapable of travelling at the speeds required for interstellar travel and even if we could travel at the speed of light, if you travelled at 99.99% the speed of light for one year, more than 2000 years would have passed on earth, meaning that the entire mission behind travelling would be pointless, as there might not even be any civilization left after that amount of time. It would be a death sentence.
    The closer we get to travelling at the speed of light, the more time dilation we experience.
    Our current achievable speed is only 0.05% the speed of light.

    I live near by Hessdalen (Norway).. a known ufo hotspot. In 1947, a huge round metallic/white object crashed into a lake called djupsjøen. Just behind my house. We call it `the egg from another world` A major streaming service is making an episode about the egg. Theres also a big search team there right now doing investigations. i and many others who live her have seen ufos and many strange things in this area. Most weird is something that looks like a portal opening and closing in the night sky. Ive seen that many times. At the end of the 80s there was a mass sightseeing of a huge craft standing on the ground in a valley. There was 80 people who witnessed this, my dear old aunt was one of them. The craft emerges from the valley and start to spin at tremendous speed, morping into light and then shoots of to the sky, gone in a second. Left behind is a black smoke. Aliens or not, something is here that we know nothing about.

Therefore we can actually make headway into things that really matter, but since out defense budget takes up the majority of the funds its impossible at this stage. Yeah I know that one is a child's wish & the way the human race is biologically programmed to destroy it's self & kill one another.

    “Are we alone in the universe?” is the opening statement. Consider that practically everything in the universe is vastly far away from Earth in both distance and time. Only one large galaxy outside our own, M31, is close enough to see with the naked eye. It is about two and a half million light years away. At that distance we can resolve individual stars and observe some of their characteristics. But practically everything in the universe is much farther away than that. For galaxies outside the local group, we can detect supernovae, but not much finer detail about the stars. Detecting planets, and radio signals from planets, is not possible beyond some distance, so nearly all the universe is beyond the range within which we can detect civilizations. Thus the initial question is moot.

    Intelligent species are much more separetd by time than space. Temporal seperation comes from the shortness of the lifespan of intelligent species.
    Human level intelligent life could have developed on Earth over the past 200 Mio years at any time, statistically. With a civilizatory lifespan of less than 100kyr this would mean 2000 slots.
    Taking our level of civilization as a baseline we could exist in the physical form for another 20'000 years. During this time span contact could be feasible. This means 10k slots for meetings.
    So if we had a perfectly even distribution of these higher level civilizations we needed to have 10k +1 civilization in this galaxy alone for two to meet at any time over these 200 Mio years. So it could be that 2 civilizations overlapped 200 Mio years ago and will not for a statistical other 200 Mio years.
    Now if these civilizations were living at opposite sides in this Galaxy the probability of them meeting in time before one fades away obviously decreases considerably as if they accidentially developed only 5 light years away from each other.
    So we primarily have a timing problem.
    Hang on! If we lived for 200 Mio years then we could meet all of the 10k civilizations! Right? Correct, if we did live that long. But this again is very , very unlikely, as when we look at the speed of our development it is A) unlikely that if we survive the next 20k years that we will still be having a physical existence anywhere near our current substrate form, and B) equally unlikey that we would be interested in any kind of contact with such low level civilizations or C) if there were many low level civilizations and we wre capable of contacting them, we might be saturated from the many millions we might have already made contact with across many galaxies.
    Equally we would most likely have taken a form or moved to a place which makes it impossible for lower level civilizations to even find us or/and for us simply not interesting/utile or morally correct to make that contact.
    So temporal separation and physical incompatibility and non-interest further drastically reduce the likelihood of meeting other similar level civilizations.
    Spatial and temporal distance between civilizations is good for evolution as it gives each species enough time-space to evolve before they might ever can get in contact with each other.
    Looking at our highly aggressive species this is absolutely ok.
    However there might be another way: AI.
    An AI civilization as our successor could bridge space-time we cannot.

    I am pretty sure other civilizations out there are older than ours,just because the direction of the universe's expansion,but if we ever meet,am quite sure that after travelling for trillions of kms/miles,those aliens are going to be needing fuel,hydration and food..I don't want to be their food source.

      If they made it this far, they’d have a self sustaining fuel source and food. Use your head.

    Even if there are other creatures, it's impossible for them to come here because of the distances. Especially with rotating discs.

    3:00 I was bored so I did the calculation, the fastest manmade object ever travels at 394,736 miles per hour, that’s 0.058 percent the speed of light, that means it would take the fastest manmade object ever made, 7,207.45 years to reach the nearest star

    Or you can make contact with Aliens and ask them, that would be faster and easier , rather then wait for millions of years. Just saying 😂

    The possibility of developing a teleport system from place to place in a very difficult task tracking the zones of safetracks to reaching a different kind of vibration and the starting point of understanding that resonances FALLOW through with resonances and nonresonances are deadly

    Why? Simply because the speed of light is the limit. Forever. Period. That's why.

    This is great, it's like some post space-x stuff, where ho hum, here's how space travel works.
    Not mocking it, it's great, comes across as very realistic and near/current term as far as the tech goes.
