Most never evolved beyond single cells, of those that did they never became more complex life, of those that did most never developed advanced intelligence.

Those aliens with advanced intelligence have to survive constant natural extinction events, not killing themselves off. They might have nothing like wood on their planet or no oil, fire might not be possible so technological development is restricted, even if they have advanced technology the gravity on the planet might be so high they can never leave.

Humans are the only spacefarcing species in the universe until I'm shown otherwise.

Within our lifetimes I think we will find other life somewhere in our solar system, but it will be relatively simple and boring, nothing intelligent, and most normies won't see anything significant about the discovery

The ice shell moons, Europa and Enceladus, which are thought to have liquid oceans below the surface, and Pluto might have similar properties.
Tricky thing is making a probe that can drill beneath the very thick ice layer and take a peak at what's inside. But maybe we could find something like a young fissure in the ice or an inactive vent that shortens the distance

>Where are all the Aliens !?

They're plants, animals, and microbes, and thus can't return our calls. I genuinely don't expect us to meet any Aliens in our life time and even beyond that and into the distant future- unless we start speciating from living on other planets for too long, but that wouldn't *really* count.

>>16004175
>The ice shell moons, Europa and Enceladus, which are thought to have liquid oceans below the surface

My guess is Venus. Specifically Venus' atmosphere.
I wouldn't be surprised if Europa had marine life under that sheet of ice it has, but my big bet is Venus. I think Venus has life. It has energy, it has all the chemical ingredients, and the atmosphere has been shown to not only be 'buoyantly thick', but maintain a comfortable temperature at higher altitudes.

Still, it'd be really exciting and fucked up if one of those satellites we keep sending to probe ice-rich asteroids/muddy snowballs, just comes back and it has freeze-dried dehydrated viable microbes, or some kind of spaceborne fairy shrimp, waiting and ready to go the moment they've made planet-fall.

There are no other alien civs in our galaxy. Each galaxy gives birth to one technological civilization that eventually takes it over before any other civilizations can arise.

>> No.16004460

>>16004336
This seems unbelievable given the age of the galaxy and that countless worlds out there have likely been habitable for a very long time before humans emerged.
>eventually takes it over
Humans are a technological civilization but it seems highly unlikely that we will ever travel to other solar systems.
Even if we did colonize other solar systems, it couldn't really be a cohesive galactic civilization, assuming you can't beat the speed of light and it takes many years just to communicate back and forth.
It would be groups splitting off from their old civilization/s and creating new ones.

They're probably already here and we can't even tell. And no, I'm not talking about ayys infiltrating our society or anything like that.
Maybe a lot of things we think of as natural in origin are actually artificial.

If you keep posting this every hour, maybe they'll finally get annoyed to the point where they'll actually reveal their location lmao
