[REAL TALK] The Universe is teeming with life, so why haven't we seen any Aliens?

[D4thincarnation]

Where are those Aliens to?

Just in our galaxy alone, they are at least 200 stars, with at least 1 planet per a star and 25% of those planets are in the habitable zone and earth size.

Even if we just take earth size planets that is 5 billion planets that can support life with the same sun type and same planet type as ours and at the same distance from their sun as us.


That is 5 billion planets, and that is just our galaxy and they are trillions of galaxies.

Yet none of them have mastered interstellar travel and have contacted us.

None out of Sextillions (A 1 with 21 zeros) have managed this.

Are we kidding ourselves dreaming we can traverse the stars one day?

What could this mean?

There is a force that is stopping this? That life when reaches a certain stage destroys itself? This is not the real universe? God made the Universe jut for us?

Universe Schmu-niverse, WHERE DA WEED AT YO??!!!?

First, we have seen alien life and, two, the distance between stars, heck the distance between planets in the same solar system is still ridiculous.

After millennia of general scientific research, our planet has basically spent the last 60 years physically exploring beyond our orbit.

After the stall of the efforts, government and business are now, not only looking to better lunar travel, but reach towards travel to MARS.

With the knowledge of how to get to the Moon, paired with knowledge of how to get people to MARS, you know have data points to gauge for human travel beyond Mars.

The point being, they must be civilizations out there millions of years in front of us, yet they can't traverse space to other worlds

And where are these aliens at?

The absence of evidence is not the evidence of absence.

[EdWins]

well what exactly makes you think we haven't been visited by aliens? They are probably observing our earth and our star system right now as we speak. They aren't gonna just appear to us in broad daylight like "yo whats up earthlings I'm from a galaxy far far away n sheeeit, whats good?"

[D4thincarnation]

The absence of evidence is not the evidence of absence.

By that logic, even though we have not seen any evidence of bigfoot it is not evidence that the creature does not exist.

[Robbie Barrett]

The absence of evidence is not the evidence of absence.

But it is.

[megas30]

But it is.

How so? Please explain....

[Robbie Barrett]

How so? Please explain....

Well it's pretty simple. If there's no evidence of something, that's evidence itself that goes towards an argument that the thing doesn't exist/didn't happen. Is it proof? No, but it's evidence.
