Another possibility: We have seen indications but we don't believe it when people say so.

What if all the UFO stuff the US is once against investigating is true? While its hard to get scientific evidence, trained military observers have made consistent reports of craft with anomalous very high G transmedium (Space, Air, & Sea) hypersonic antigravity tireless performance & designs that are beyond rather than straight out of sci-fi.

Example: USS Nimitz incident 2004. Source of the famous "tic tac" video in the NYT. Testimony from pilots, a radar operator, & crew members. Best video I've seen on it is "Extraordinary Until Proven Otherwise" by LEMMINO

What if we are being visited? Studied, & mostly left alone to develop? Like a wildlife preserve. Popping in and out on quick safaris. I believe the "zoo hypothesis" answer to the Fermi Paradox is closest to this scenario.

Then there's decorated former NRO intelligence officer turned whistleblower David Grusch's testimony under oath to Congress of investigating, vetting, & receiving information from current & former officials asserting the existence of an unsuccessful multi-decadal reverse-engineering program hidden in compartmentalized Special Access Programs (SAPs) run mostly by private aerospace, funded by misappropriated funds, holding exotic wreckage & even "non-human biologics" of pilots of unknown origin ("Interdimensional" stated as being his personal theory )

Some mishaps perhaps. Not all sorties are successful.

It's certainly interesting the times we live in.

If FTL is impossible, the resources required to launch colony ships across the interstellar void to destinations that may or may not support them seems wasteful. Especially when you consider that with same resources you could build another orbital habitat that could house millions. Which would you rather, build another habitat to reduce the strain on earth's ecosystem, or send a small group of people on a generational trip that will probably end in failure? Humans would probably just densely populate the solar system rather than spread out to other systems.

There's one complication: we don't actually need to live on planets. With the high tech that allows interstellar travel, you can easily build giant space stations to live on, powered by your friendly neighbourhood fusion reactor (your Sun) even if you yourself haven't figured out fusion.

@placeholdername0000

1w↑238

And if you find a decent sized rock with some uranium or thorium in it, you can live on that for thousands of years. This would allow you to travel interstellar distances, just by hanging out and waiting for generations on a rock. Also, the stars move, meaning that any civilization in a star system that lasts for millions of years, will inevitably have a close encounter with another star.

@joost199207

1w↑205

But a planet is always preferable though. No tech can match the scale and freedom you have on a planet (that suits your needs).

You could get close though, with enormous stations powered by an artificial sun and other trickery. But at that point it's probably easier to just find or terraform a planet.

@Vespuchian

1w↑207

I find one of the greatest ironies of interstellar colonization is that if you have the ability to create ships to travel those vast distances, or settle on the surface of extremely marginal planets like Mars, you've also the ability to make artificial habitats, bottle worlds, completely undercutting the need to colonize another planet in the most extreme version of an invasive species.

This actually makes colonizing other systems easier because you don't need to look for planets to live on, the asteroids within a system become a more valuable resource because of accessability. This also means you don't need to go sailing off vast distances because just about any system will do, which means expansion happens in small jumps rather than great leaps. This keeps inter-planetary civilizations quite compact, even if each system in that civilization might have a much greater population than a planet might sustain.

@Aureonw

@Vespuchian

1w↑11

@@generaldelasmontanas2699
It bears pointing out that what drove the initial wave of exploration from Europe wasn't to settle somewhere, it was to make ridiculous amounts of MONEY by bypassing existing trade routes and monopolies. The colonization was a byproduct.

I suppose a decent historical parallel is how the Dutch just made more land to farm instead of relying on colonial expansion. Oh sure, they had colonies, but those were about resource extraction for making said ridiculous amounts of MONEY rather than finding somewhere to live. Dutch colonialism wouldn't have worked without native populations to ~~enslave~~ offer minimum wage jobs to, while the polders were entirely homegrown.

Another might be the Boat People in SE Asia, where whole communities float on rafts/barges because it's a better use of resources than taking up land with homes.

One of the spookiest explanations for the Fermi paradox is that civilizations might create their own virtual universes to live in, instead of colonizing into space. Considering how hard humans are diving into the Internet and virtual reality, this sounds really plausible.

The assumptions with aliens get me because they always assume if there are aliens they must be more technologically advanced than humans. Like why can’t they exist and we also just so happen to be the planet that’s the most advanced? Technically even bacteria on another planet would be considered an alien.

@mme.veronica735

Well, we are assuming that intelligent aliens would be intelligent like us. In just a few hundred thousand years humans have gone from making stone tools to harnessing the power of the atom, our technology some would say has advanced exponentially.

Unless Humans are among the first intelligent life in the universe, one or two million years extra on humans, or in other words evolving 0.5% to 0.25% earlier in the life of the universe, would cause their technology to advance that much more exponentially to the point where interstellar travel is possible.

@@MrTuneslol See that’s what gets me, in a million years I imagine OUR tech could get pretty impressive, but I think its a bit of a stretch to assume the same would go for whatever form life took on another planet.

I mean some planet has to be the top dog so why not us?

@ashleyobrien4937

@@MrTuneslol Many people seem to lean toward aliens being more advanced than us, but, it isn't likely, based on available evidence. If there were any aliens out there, now, and ahead of us technologically, some form of electromagnetic radiation from them could be detectable by us, but we hear nothing. Why ? Quite possibly because we are the first, small G type yellow dwarf stars like ours aren't that common (~ 10 %) and are the best for life because they do not flare and are long lived and output sufficient energy to make a planets surface dynamic with variable energy strata. The other over riding factor is the age of the universe, it is YOUNG, as far as the "age of starlight" goes, which is at least 100 trillion years or so before the last stars fade into darkness, the statistical probability is obviously that the vast majority of the universes life forms have barely even begun.

People tend to forget that much of the universes early days were not friendly for life, the first generation of stars, the population three stars were no good because apart from Hydrogen, a little Helium and even less Lithium they were the ONLY elements around, most of the rest of the periodic table didn't show up after the next generation of stars, and seeding interstellar hydrogen gas with enough of these elements for the formation of rocky planets from proto-stars and their protoplanetary discs took billions of years. Given the se and other things that had to happen to get us here, it seems more than likely we are first, we may turn out to be the dominant life form across the entire galaxy, or even further.

One problem, the video assumes "contact" means an alien civilization making a colony right next to us. If Earth was in the middle of an unihabitable zone, we would still get all the radio signals from colonies further away. So maybe colonizing is just that too hard and colony ships aren't very practical in the first place, considering you'll only get results a whole century later.

@sebastianbauer4768

1w↑2

That is assuming they use radio, they might not. And even if they did they might not use it at a strength were it would be still intelligible as a signal to us against the galactic background radiation. I mean we don’t, why would they? Far more likely they use directional EM waves like laser for that, it’s far more efficient which is why we switched to that.

As far as colony ships being unviable … that would imply that space stations are unviable since the difference is minor really and we already strongly suspect they are not unviable. In fact I strongly suspect that space stations are more viable than most planets. There are many drawbacks of sitting at the bottom of a giant gravity well, chief among them that stuff tends to fall down it gaining ridiculous energy. A space station in a quiet orbit, maybe inside a large asteroid to shield from radiation, seems far safer.

Maybe we don’t find settled planets because everyone prefers shielded stations and they would be impossible to see since the shielding that protects them from the hazards of space also ensures they don’t emit anything we could detect.

It's not a fluke, but our level of intelligence is really, really hard.

Evolution favors adaptation, and intelligence will make a species more adaptable over long periods of time. In other words, you would necessarily expect species to be more and more intelligent.

Problem is how long it takes to go from primordial soup to such intelligence. In most cases, life isn't able to evolve to such a point before the planet becomes hostile to life due to an expanding sun. The goldilocks zone is not stationary, and it takes around the order of billions of years to reach our point.

Given how long life has been on our planet and how much longer our planet would otherwise have remained habitable, it's not really surprising that there isn't other intelligent life in our galaxy. After all, it would necessarily be extremely rare, and if we could see it, it almost certainly would have already been here for a very long time.

The push and pull of generalists and specialists will come down to reproductive success in a given environment at a given time (the thing selection actually selects for).
