Ai...no...in a million plus years we would have seen them...this hasn't happened simply because there is none

Why....because God doesn't play like this.....our technology will run itself dry at some point....we will never travel to another inhabitable planet, ever, nor will another to ours


You have a very sad POV for our species. Let me guess, like every single zealot in the last 2000 years, you think you're in the end of days and that it's going to be YOUR generation that is raptured? Please. Our radio waves have only travelled 200 light years, and after say 80 they become scattered and are difficult to decipher, to where we may even now be constantly bombarded with subtle alien signals but we don't have a clue about it. And for a visual representation on at most a species would only know about us if they were in this tiny yellow dot:



And that doesn't even includes hundreds of billions of other galaxies. It's laughable that you think the lack of physical evidence of other intelligent life is conclusive evidence for lack of life throughout the cosmos, despite the fact that their existence is a near mathematical certainty.

It's obvious we come from robots and are just trying to make new robot babies.

come on the Fermi equation is famous for being full of numbers that are just guesses. there's no 'certainty' there at all. it would only take a few million years for a civilization to colonize the entire galaxy. so hence the big question: where is everybody? why are there no indications of type 1 civilizations? why no large scale engineering like dyson spheres or star alignment? there are possible explanations for all the questions but they are just wild arse guesses.

bottom line: no one knows if there is any other intelligent life or if we're the only one.
