Final Solution to the Fermi Paradox! Scientists Hope They’re Wrong!

Do we have proof that we're the only intelligent life in the Galaxy? Even the brilliant Enrico Fermi subscribed to this idea. What if he turns out to be correct?

[granthawkins]

We're being held back. It's a obvious fact we're constantly avoiding the fact that we would be a space faring species if were not constantly being pitted against eachother.

You live alone on an island in Alaska with no means to leave or communicate with the outside world. Even if you know that there are millions of people in Australia, you can not reach, doesn’t make you feel less alone.

If we are here, then they are there...

Alien 1: "Earthlings don't like Aliens."
Alien 2: "Whaaat?"

[ericcoskun]

There is actually one viable theory that explains our inability to detect other civilizations, the Dark Forest Theory/Hypothesis is not only viable but also the most likely scenario.

[craigmoy]

I quite like the idea that we are part of a galactic Truman

[ronholfly]

Another possibility is we have been observed as being too hostile in our nature, so a cloaking order has been issued by the Galactic Federation regarding visiting our solar system.

We may be alone right now, but mathematically it makes no sense that we are the only life in the galaxy let alone the universe. Time and distance might make it tough to connect but the math just isn't there for us to be the lone exception.

6 major extinction events before humans. A rare star as it turns out and a pretty bizarre moon . IT could happen again.

[GrampaGrumpy]

We are not alone, we just haven't met them yet. They are out there.

[NvSCatalyst]

Not to go all star trek. But maybe this planet is protected until we discover interstellar travel with warp engines or something.

[Alter-human_Library]

That assumes that they would want to spread out. Or they know how humanity would react in a negative way and so stays away from Earth

Its really not about being physically alone its about is this just you and thats it no one else just you being

[davidsarfraz]

whether aliens exist or not we are soon going to the moon and mars.

[Larry-ouhq]

Even though late Stephen Hawking said we'd be weary about contacting aliens because it could be very hostile to the human race!

[edwardhinton]

How many times can you change the title and rehash the Fermi Paradox? Tell us something new.

[creationmuse]

Because of SIN! We are not isolated, just Quarantined. There are beings other than us.💯

[josephjucker]

With ~2 trillion galaxies in the observable universe chance is stacked against being alone. If the universe is infinite non human intelligence is guaranteed

[davidsarfraz]

donald trump has stated that we are in contact with the aliens.

[allies]

For the moment we are alone, however, if we are obedient to God's will by being fruitful and multiplying, then we will take our progeny out to the stars, and they will spread throughout the galaxy. The places they occupy will have significant evolutionary effects on their biology. Thousands of years from now, we the progenitors, will have grandchildren who may have purple skin, antennas on their heads, and pointed ears. No one knows how truly far we will go. Even we ourselves will change, but what we will change into is anyone's guess.

Live long and prosper, Humans !
