Fermi paradox: Where is everybody? (Where are other civilizations?)

If we would calculate the number of known planets, what are on the habitable zone of the sun type star we would get number one if we would live in 1950's And if we would see how many known civilizations were in that kind of planets in that time, we can get number one. So if we would calculate the probability to meet intelligent civilization on the Earth-type planet, what is in the habitable zone of the star, we could find number 100. So in every earth type planet, what orbits the star in the habitable zone should have an intelligent life form.


And here we must ask again where are those civilizations? When we are looking at the Drake equation, we must think about the question, where are the aliens, if every earth-type planet in the habitable zone of stars would have intelligent life. Here we must go to the Fermi paradox, the attempt to explain why there would be no answer from another civilization? The one thing in this paradox is, that when the civilization would get some special level of science and technology, they could destroy themselves with nuclear weapons.


This explanation is one of the most well-known things about this paradox. And then somebody would ask, "Was the Second World War the ultimate test", and if the mankind passed that test, would it become super civilization? The other thing in the Fermi paradox is that the gamma-ray bursts would destroy the civilization, and the opponent would claim, that if the civilization would have enough high technical level, they could evacuate to the dark side of their home planet.


And also moving to the dark side or underground network of tunnels, would that civilization survive even from the biggest cosmic catastrophes. When we are thinking about the communication between civilizations, there is, of course, the possibility that the hypothetical alien would not answer, because it would not feel the communication safe. That means it afraid that some other hostile aliens would locate it, and then the war between worlds would raise.


Sometimes some persons think, that maybe the afraid of conflict between two very technical civilizations would survive the Earth. Because if some civilization would use weapons like Death Star, it would show the power to other civilizations, what have the even better equipment and technology. Sometimes I have faced the theory, that other civilizations would leave us alone because we would be too pathetic being seriously taken.


That kind of talking is very usual between philosophers. Or maybe the radio signals, what are left to the universe are too weak to notice. Maybe the radio waves, what are coming from other stars and galaxies are acting like ECM-jammer system. That radio-transmission can cover the radio-waves, what is sending by using Hydrogen Alpha-frequency. Maybe we are alone maybe not. But the searching would continue.

The hydrogen-burning supernovas are interesting models.

"Researchers discovered a significant magnesium anomaly in a meteorite’s dust particle, challenging current astrophysical models and suggesting new insights into hydrogen-burning supernovas. (Artist’s concept.)Credit: SciTechDaily.com" (ScitechDaily, Rare Dust Particle From Ancient Extraterrestrial Meteorite Challenges Astrophysical Models) If the star is too heavy when its fusion reaction starts, it can detonate just at that moment, when its fusion starts. If the collapsing nebula is heavy enough, it can form a black hole straight from the nebula. But if the nebula's gravity is too heavy to  form  the blue giant or too  small  it can collapse  straight  into a black hole . If  the forming star is a little bit larger than the blue supergiants. It can explode immediately when the fusion starts.    The theory of hydrogen-burning supernovas consists  model  of the giant stars that explode immediately after their fusion starts. When the...

The ancient galaxy mirrors the Milky Way.

"This image shows the galaxy REBELS-25 as seen by the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA), overlaid on an infrared image of other stars and galaxies. The infrared image was taken by ESO’s Visible and Infrared Survey Telescope for Astronomy (VISTA). In a recent study, researchers found evidence that REBELS-25 is a strongly rotating disc galaxy existing only 700 million years after the Big Bang. This makes it the most distant and earliest known Milky Way-like galaxy found to date. Credit: ALMA (ESO/NAOJ/NRAO)/L. Rowland et al./ESO/J. Dunlop et al. Ack.: CASU, CALET" (ScitechDaily, Astronomers Baffled by Ancient Galaxy That Mirrors Modern Milky Way) Researchers found the youngest Milky Way-type galaxy. The distance to the galaxy is enormous. And the light that comes from that galaxy named REBELS-25 comes from the Universe that is only 700 million years old. The distance to that galaxy is enormous about 236 billion light years. And that means it's a very dista...

Transcendence, or the ability to transcendent thinking may grow in teen's brains.

   "New research has discovered that transcendent thinking, which involves analyzing the broader implications of situations, can foster brain growth in adolescents. This form of thinking enhances brain network coordination, impacting developmental milestones and future life satisfaction. The study emphasizes the need for education that encourages deep, reflective thought, underscoring the critical role of adolescents in their own brain development". (ScitechDaily, Scientists Discover That “Transcendent” Thinking May Grow Teens’ Brains) "Scientists at  USC Rossier School of Education’s Center for Affective Neuroscience, Development, Learning and Education (CANDLE) have discovered that adolescents who grapple with the bigger meaning of social situations experience greater brain growth, which predicts stronger identity development and life satisfaction years later". (ScitechDaily, Scientists Discover That “Transcendent” Thinking May Grow Teens’ Brains) The transcendenc...
