  • The universe is unbelievably big - trillions of stars and even more planets. Soo… there just has to be life out there, right? But where is it? Why don’t we see any aliens? Where are they? And more importantly, what does this tell us about our own fate in this gigantic and scary universe?

Every species created in his image were just so far away that we never see each other. A pocket civilization for each of gods creations so that we can all live peacefully away from each other

    Fun fact: The Fermi Paradox has a new option thanks to the books 3 bodies problem, and Dark forest. The new option states that the wall is other civilisations that are so advanced it would be like an ant trying to comprehend an elephant. The terrifying thing is, this could actually be right. We, Humanity may be feverishly screaming out to a universe that wants to eat us.

Of course, it might develop in ways we don't even imagine.

    my ideas and theories:
    1: Aliens are not yet capable of traveling distances long enough to get to planet to planet fast enough.
    2: there may be some factor that makes life much much rarer than we thought, rendering us one or the only species left
    3: something happened that wiped out all the other aliens
    4: most other advanced species killed themselves before they could develop enough high tech rockets to take them from place to place
    5: we are in an alien zoo or we are prisoners of aliens
    6: We are one of the first beings ( not my idea )
    7: Aliens are ready, unpredictable, and fast on their way.

      Indeed. Sometimes the answer is closer than we think. If we are alone, it means one of two things: other civilisations exist/existed but can't reach us for a reason, or we are about to die out, because limited intelligence can only bring you so far, especially now that we have 'porn, Instagram models (men and women) of lighter intelligence, who are now considered a'perfect mate' by all men which means that dumb people obssessed with 'perfect Looks' are mating with other dumb people who are obssessed with the gym, plastic surgery,taking selfies etc but cannot find time to use their brain in reality and this causes a reverse in Darwin's theory of evolution, where the most 'intelligent and fittest' survive. Reminds me of the film 'Idiocracy'.In 5000 years it will only be plastic people left who will have to 'flex their abs' at climate change, new viruses and unknown bacterial infections, and threats from 'space'. Humans WILL die out.

      Except for the tiny problem that that's not how things work. There are certain criteria that simply has to be met for any kind of life to even start evolving and even more for it to evolve into something more complex. So far we have not found any traces of even the simplest forms of life anywhere outside our planet. They might exist somewhere but the chance for us to discover them is extremely low with how huge the universe is.

      OfWeave or you can get philosophical and reason that one of these advanced civs have technology that are able to run simulations of planets like us this is statistically a whole lot likelier than being actually alive.
      We’ve also seen very little of the Milky Way so if a different civilization isn’t in the let’s conquer the entire universe phase or is busy with it we probably haven’t seen them.
      It also felt like “in the Milky Way” became the universe at one point in this video when other civs could have the ability to cross galaxies.
      It’s also possible that we have seen other “life” but it’s beyond our understanding.

We’ve barely been to the moon we aren’t even what we understand as stage 1 (but might be stage nothing for civilizations that have actually been here for a while) it’s not like we pose a threat or if others would care for our existence.

    I personally think this paradox fails to take into account how impossibly large the universe is. On Earth we have planes and jets capable of traveling hundreds of MPH , satellites mapping the entire Earth and billions of people , however if I were to hide a marble at a random location on Earth there's a good chance nobody would be able to find it.

      Regardless how large the universe is, the chance for life to arise on other planet (abiogenesis) is very very very small. Even in a perfectly habitable planet like earth, every single organism shares only ONE common ancestor.

      Even IF there is life elsewhere, it'd take forever to know it. Light itself from distant stars takes millions of years to reach us here. An alien civilization trying to travel here would take vastly greater time. Add in that space itself is expanding further extending the distance. Probability says it's likely that other life is out there, but we'll just never know it.

If it's a trillion, it's nothing one needs to be concerned with, they might as well not exist.

      Also the Type 1-3 civilizations sound unachievable.
      If you were to use all available resources there's
      1) Going to be resources that just aren't worth it (burning wood, coal, etc.) compared to others (Nuclear Fusion & Fission)
      Unless of course it's meant that the most efficient source is used
      and
      2) It's impossible to use the completely use all the of the Sun's power because some power has to go into the ecosystem just to keep us alive, and a Dyson sphere sounds completely idiotic. Really? A giant dome around the Sun? We'd all freeze to death!
      and
      3) A type 3 civilization can never exist. If 1 country can't control all of Earth, then 1 planet isn't going to take over a galaxy

      These can exist. You're thinking about this in a regular human perspective. We're still bickering over race and religion and can't even solve our own problems. 1 country can't take over the earth, because we are still primitive compared to type 2 or even 1 civilizations. We are still on a .7 type. Type 2 can exist, but we don't know how to do it because we can't comprehend it yet. And a type one is possible, but we'd have to colonize other planets or we'll likely just destroy ourselves.

      To harness all of the power of the Sun would leave other important stuff deprived of the sun they need
      for example;
      Plants won't be able to do photosynthesis because we're taking their power
      The Earth would freeze over
      Wildlife will die off
      (RIP the penguins)
      And also a Dyson Sphere, unlike how this video explained it, isn't theoretical at all.
      You need more resources than the entire Earth just to build an insignificant portion of it. and if we somehow even build half of a Dyson sphere, there's no way we'd be able to bring it to the sun. In fact the mass would so great it would most likely overwhelm Earth's. crush it into tiny pieces. I can go on and on but you get the jist of it
      A type 1 civilization that uses all available resources is both stupid, and wasteful. Why would you use wind and solar power if a fusion reactor can keep a country settle with a few grams of Hydrogen?

      (RIP the penguins)"
      - The Dyson Sphere is an object of much greater size than you seem to think. It doesn't just engulve the sun, it engulves the goldenlocks zone. We would be on the inside of it's surface where the sun would still shine.
      "You need more resources than the entire Earth just to build an insignificant portion of it. and if we somehow even build half of a Dyson sphere, there's no way we'd be able to bring it to the sun."
      - We would build it in space, duh.
      "In fact the mass would so great it would most likely overwhelm Earth's. crush it into tiny pieces."
      - That's the biggest problem with the concept of the Dyson Sphere, however by the time a civilization reaches the ability to construct one, I'm sure they'd work around it somehow.
      "A type 1 civilization that uses all available resources is both stupid, and wasteful. Why would you use wind and solar power if a fusion reactor can keep a country settle with a few grams of Hydrogen? "

      That doesn't answer the problem. The sphere requires more resources than THE ENTIRE EARTH! Literally impossible to build anywhere.
      The fact that it covers the goldilocks zone is even worse considering it's mass. It would create a Sun-Sphere system and completely fuck up all the orbits. There's no way around that just as there's no way to travel through space @ the speed of light
