can you share whatever math you have that proves there is ET life?

I feel the exact same way about you morons who believe in aliens. Your complete belief is based on assumption bc of the size of the universe. The size of the universe is no indication of amt of life.
1. Define Aliens
- Do you mean space-faring extra terrestrials visiting our planet?
- Do you mean space-faring extra terrestrials too far away to visit our planet?
- Do you mean non-space-faring extra terrestrial intelligent life?
- Do you mean just extra terrestrial life?
2. "The size of the universe is no indication of amt of life"
- In itself, of course it's not. If there was no life at all in the universe, then we wouldn't exist. The idea of life wouldn't exist and math wouldn't exist.
- You're too easy to discount the math. The only people that grasp the size of the universe are mathematicians and they use it in equations in an attempt to define it. Even they admit to the enormity of the mathematical universe.
- Humans are only on the early stages of exploration. Even the use of jet engines is less than 80 years ago, nuclear fission the same. We're children in the math of the universe.
- In our limited capability, humans have already found the building blocks of life as we know it outside of Earth. Cellular possibly just one planet over. Ice, oxygen, liquid water, etc.
Believing in extra terrestrial life doesn't include a tin foil hat.

Even better question! How can grown arse folks believe in et's but won't even look at "conspiracies" and the facts that support them.

See Drake Equation also Fermi Paradox. Punch yourself in the dick.

Also read about the "great filter". Scary to think about but very interesting.

The universe is billions of years old. So if the chances for intelligent life are high due simply to size then certainly they would have existed 3 billion years ago as well. And if so where are they! Shouldn't they have colonized much of the galaxy by now? Yet we see no evidence of there civilizations!
So if they couldn't do it 3 million years ago why would today be any different. Where are they? Why don't we pick up any alien signals. Hurry up I want to watch some alien tv shows!
If there where aliens visiting us there technology would have to be very advanced. If there technology is very advanced then

Maybe they died off before we existed?

No physical evidence of God, but actually tons of evidence of fricking ets. The fricking military believes in them.

By y'alls same argument... But but but the universe is huge.... they all couldn't have died off. Only ONE of the billions of stars would have had to make it!

You truly have no idea how big the universe is do you?
There are literally hundreds of billions of galaxies which are millions and billions of lightyears apart.

The correct way to approach such things is to look for evidence that does not support what you believe to be true.
If you only look for evidence that supports you, you can convince yourself of damn near anything.
Confirmation bias

You are confusing a galaxy and the universe. A alien species could have colonized a million galaxies not including the Milky Way and we still would have no evidence.

There could even be life in our own solar system. Jupiter's moon Europa.

At the speed of light, it takes 100,000 years to travel end to end of the Milky Way. Take the time to watch and listen to this man, Dr Steven Greer about UFO's and our shadow, military industrial government complex.

Let's make a few points here:
1) the universe is extremely, extremely, extremely large. So large that most people who think they can comprehend it's size don't even have a clue.
2) alien life simply means organized life outside of earth's ecosystem. It doesn't mean little green men in flying saucers.
3) If there is alien life then we are going to have to limit our discussion to the milky way galaxy. It's pointless talking about what's going on in other galaxys because under no circumstances will intelligent life ever be able to travel between the galaxies.
4)no one here is smart enough to "do the math"
5)we currently have ZERO proof of any life outside of earth. Zero. Not even bacteria.
6) Get educated:

7) Amy Mainzer is kind of hot?
