People like to point towards US “Star Trek” patents, the Nazi’s who played with electromagnetic propulsion, America and its immensely vast black projects and the fact that both Russia and China are heavily investing into hypersonic technology.
They also like to point towards science, such as the Alexey Warp Drive.
It’s possible that humans are responsible for beyond next generation technological advancements. But how unlikely would this event be? It’s unlikely to be aliens based on our current scientific understanding about the possibilities of life. It’s unlikely to be a hoax due to the sheer complexity of it and how long it’s been going on.
So ultimately, we have three possible explanations and all three explanations are inprobable. Where does that leave us? One of those answers has to be correct, or it’s some other explanation entirely.
Which leads to time travelers, multiverse, alternative dimensions, higher dimensional objects entering a 3D space or macro manifestations of quantum energy. All of these are exceptionally unlikely events as well.
No wonder people get obsessed with this stuff. We see something is definitely happening. However, none of the possible explanations prove to be logical. We must be missing something, otherwise a miracle is happening right in front of our eyes.

@dankmemes7658 Let me clarify: Our current understanding of life suggests that life forms are common in the universe. We don’t have conclusive evidence yet, but the scientific logic points towards life being a common thing.
For example, it is estimated that the probability of life occurring on Earth was a 10 to the 47th power chance of happening. For reference, there are roughly 10 to the 47th power of water molecules here on Earth. So we have a 10 to the 47th probability occurrence, with a 10 to the 47th power of water molecules relentlessly interacting with other molecules, over billions of years. That’s a lot of chances for a very improbable event to occur. It only needs to occur once as well.
So to our understanding, Abiogenesis isn’t a Great Filter.
So that means the Great Filter is likely the transition from consciousness, to civility consciousness. The formation of complex artificial bodies. Governments, militaries, buildings, ideas and technology. So our understanding of alien science states that it is extremely unlikely that other higher intelligent species exist around us. Earth and our solar system is exceptionally unique. It’s likely that the extraordinarily stable conditions of our solar system has nurtured our complex life.
So since science thinks there isn’t life close to us, we’ve started searching much further out. If there was any civilizations capable of communicating with us or reaching us. We should be seeing their signatures everywhere. For example, it’s formulated that it will take humanity 2 million years to fully colonize the galaxy, assuming we don’t go extinct on Earth or our solar system first. 2 million years is a really short time on cosmic scales. Therefore we can assume other species in our position would have sprawled out to their entire galaxy, or potentially thousands of galaxies. We should be seeing artificial voids from them harvesting entire stars or building stellar engines, Dyson swarms, etc. Instead, we see only naturally explainable phenomena, everywhere we look.
This leads to several possible conclusions.
1.) We are the only life.
2.) We are early to the life party.
3.) We are late to the life party.
4.) Other species are at a similar level of development to us and neither is sufficiently advanced enough to make contact.
5.) Complex life is such a rarity that it could be seperated by billions of light years.
6.) Life might transcend this reality if it’s determined to be possible and if it’s determined that it’s too difficult and dangerous to traverse the immense distances in this universe.
If Quantum mechanics can prove its claims on parallel universes, multiverses, alternate dimensions or higher dimensions. Then it’s likely we as humans will aim to explore these worlds before we explore our own universe. Why go through the dangerous and painstakingly slow process of universal exploration, if you can simply portal into another world.
So I’d like to end with that I understand our modern scientific thinking is incomplete. Our determinations on the probabilities of any of the above stuff could be completely wrong. But it’s the best we have, based on the most supported theories and achievable evidence. It’s why I love funding scientific projects because they have the possibility of revolutionizing the world. Even though our thoughts on alien probabilities are likely wrong. It’s amazing how well humans actually understand our universe. Granted we still don’t know so much. But the stuff we do know, we have a masterful understanding of it. Therefore it’s really odd that we can’t find any signs of intelligent life beyond Earth. What is it we’re missing? Time and effort will hopefully tell.
