There could be an advanced civilization on the other side of the Milky Way, right now, gobbling up stars with Dyson Spheres, and we wouldn't notice the missing light for 10s of thousands of years.

Our ability to observe is half the problem. It's not just that we've only looked at one cup of water out of an ocean of stars; we're looking at it without a real microscope or knowledge of microbes, and we kinda need glasses.

The universe is young, and we’re only able to observe the distant past. It’s not surprising that we haven’t seen anything yet.

To me, the paradox assumes that we have looked everywhere, turned every stone, and cant find the aliens. When in reality, all we've done is take a cup of ocean water, looked in the cup and said " where are all the fish?" We really havent even looked. And we assume they follow our technological paths. Its just silly

My assumption is that there are about 3 or 4 civilisations existing at any one time in the galaxy. But so far away from each other they never interact.

Time and space is too vast for civilization's to ever meet. This is the simplest explanation.

Thank you for saying this out loud. Of the two assumptions, I think the second is the weakest.

I think things like megastructures and colony ships and slow galactic expansion are the weak points.

People like to assume that all technological problems will one day be solved, as if it's inevitable that FTL travel and Dyson swarms must be realistic. I don't think they are.

If we're ordinary -- the mediocrity principle -- then the idea that we can get the whole species focused on creating a Dyson swarm for the 1000-odd years it would take to build is IMO preposterous. We can't even keep space programs funded longer than one US presidential election cycle.

I'm assuming that our counterparts are likely to be political to some degree. As much as FTL may not be a solvable problem, so might politics not be solvable.

We still haven't proven that civilization was a good idea.

The absurdity of having the voyager shuttles which have barely left the solar system, and our arrogance in saying “where is everyone?!”

We might be the first. We are the aliens we seek.

Considering the utter scale of the universe and how long it took for a spacefaring civilization to appear on Earth, it's highly unlikely the Silurian Hypothesis produced even an industrial civilization, it would not be all surprising if a single galaxy or several dozen galaxies are home to only a single sapient species.

Of course, there could be so many other reasons as well. We are asking the question of why we haven't encountered or found signs of an alien species after all.

Thanks again, David Kipping! In an era when deep-sea exploration and outer-space speculation have both become entertainment for the wealthy or wish-fulfillment for the under-read & less-traveled, we depend more than ever on rigorous science articulated with intellectual coherence by scientist-heroes of ethical integrity. You are that hero/that scientist.

they are too far away or too long ago...we are an extremely tiny dot in an enormous beyond belief galaxy and have existed for a nanosecond in the span of the age of the galaxy.

we are stuck in islands of time. there was a species like us out there 2 billions of years ago and now we exist and once we are gone 2 billion years later or 500 millions years later another will rise. We are not separated by space or distance, but time.

I love the inherent hubris involved in the fermi paradox. WE obviously are going to populate the galaxy and make enough ruckus that other civilizations will see us, so why can't we see them?

So weird that people don’t think that the Galaxy and even our own skies could be densely populated but keeping on a slightly different frequency which is just out of normal human sight.
