so i just learned that we inhabit a supervoid, which basically obliterates the fermi paradox argument. what the fuck is going on? i feel alone

DISCUSS GOD DAMNIT, HOLY SHIT HOW IS NOBODY ELSE BLOWN AWAY BY THE FACT WE LIVE IN A FUCKING EMPTY VOID THERE IS PROBABLY AN INTERSTELLAR PARTY GOING ON ALL OVER THE UNIVERSE WHILE WE'RE STUCK HERE JERKIN OURSELVES AND EACH OTHER OFF

Citation needed.
I don't think you really understand what Fermi's Paradox states.

You know how theres that island in the Indian ocean full of savages that we are not allowed to visit and let them live like cave men with no access to the modern world?

We are that on a planet scale.

Probabilistically, if the Earth inhabited a highly energy-dense region of spacetime we'd be more likely to be eliminated in some sort of galactic cataclysm before life could evolve.

Thus, a priori, it is more likely for life to evolve within a 'super-void' than otherwise.

Pretty sure we still believe the universe is homogeneous on a large enough scale, so the Fermi paradox is probably still alright. You think Fermi would be so easily defeated? The man was a steel trap.

ya i was thinkin something similar after making this post.

Our galaxy, the Milky Way, takes about 250 MY to make one rotation, which means that Earth has been through about 20 revolutions, during which we have moved in and out of regions with rather variable densities.
