The Fermi Paradox: Reasons why we havent been visited by Aliens

What a mind fukk

Yeah? What's your explanation then? What are the likely possibilities according to you?

maybe they got better shyt to do? this whole why don't aliens talk to us sounds like some white folks dilemma. cacs need to realize they ain't the center of the universe.

 

[Swagnificent]

possibility 8-10 are the most likely.

The simulation theory always stuck with me....

Whole thing reminds me of several Sci-fi series I read a while back with the most pertinent to this thread being Larry Niven's Ringworld series, Isaac Asimov's Foundation series, and Jack L. Chalker's Saga of the Well World.

Ringworld and Foundation were comprehensible. Well World was a total mind-fukk crazier than Babylon 5.​

Fascinating. I personally believe In the alternate reality possibility. Also that we are sent here like op had as one of the possibility. My mind's blown

The universe is unimaginably big. Like mind blowingly vast and huge. Even if a civilization had lightspeed travel they couldn't hope to begin to chart the galaxy for thousands of years. We are lucky no one has found us yet.

Well if string theory is real, an Alcubierre drive could move at a max of about 3.3 trillion trillion light years per second. So you could reach the edge of the observable universe in about 4 femtoseconds. Thats assuming a lot tho

If M-theory is real shyt gon get fukking crazy
(theoretically speaking of course)
What you know bout that holographic universe doe

That was deep

 

[mc_brew]

it's interesting to consider the contrast between how intelligent an ant is versus how intelligent a human is and to consider the possibility that there is life out there that is so advanced that we're just an ant compared to it....

however, an ant is aware of other lifeforms other than us that might be on the same level of intelligence as itself... so thinking of it that way, we might not be able to observe a life form far more advanced than us, but wouldn't we at least find life that was less advanced than us? ... hmm... so much to think about, so little time...

Read this back in hs, the ending of the story always got me.

People assume faster than light travel and the ability to traverse worms holes and shyt. We don't have a theory of everything yet and until we do we won't even know if what I mentioned earlier is possible or not. If it isn't that's your answer right there, it would take them forever to get here.
We don't know enough about physics to even speculate.

FTL really depends on the nature of the universe. Also we have never really found a wormhole and even if we did we have no idea how to use negative energy or exotic matter. You're right we don't know and these questions will probably not be answered
