Or their signals reached Earth millennia before humans existed, or will reach Earth long after we’ve managed to exterminate ourselves. Time and space are unimaginably vast, and our place in both is infinitesimally small.

It makes me laugh when people play this “where is everyone?” argument despite the evidence plainly stated in this thread about the massive distances, the time frame chances (before humans existed/could receive signals, etc).

There is an almost mathematical certainty of life in the universe beyond our own.
