The real reason we have not found extraterrestrial life so far

in life •  7 years ago 

The Milky Way is home to billions of stars (100 to 400 billion). Each of them is potentially the center of a system of planets . In the visible part of the universe there are at least 2 trillion galaxies similar to ours. And it is full of planets - trillions in the orbit of billions of stars.

Even assuming that the chances of living on these planets are minimal, pure statistics suggest that somewhere there must be intelligent life.

If only 0.1% of the planets in our galaxy could be habitable, it means that it will have about 1 million planets with life on them, say by Business Insider.

"In the Universe, which is billions of years old - with star systems separated from each other by time and space, civilizations are probably born and dying too quickly. Without being able to find one another ... The mass extinction of species we have witnessed recently is only at the beginning. The bad has yet to come, "said David Wallace-Wales at the New York Magazine.
