The Fermi Paradox

Dr. Ryan MacDonald welcomes Prof. David Kipping, Assistant Professor of Astronomy at Columbia University and creator of the Cool Worlds YouTube channel (https://www.youtube.com/coolworldslab) to the Mars Bunker. They will discuss the connection between missions to Mars and the Fermi paradox, while answering your questions LIVE on air.

Get a free month of Curiosity Stream: http://curiositystream.com/isaacarthur The Fermi Paradox, the big question of where all the aliens are, has many proposed solutions focusing on what might lower the odds of intelligent species arising on another world, or what might end technological civilizations or cause them to go unseen by us and our SETI efforts. But what if intelligence rarely leads to technological civilizations in the first place? Could there be countless planets in our galaxy occupied by species who never came to value technology?

Where are the aliens? Are they dead? Were they.... murdered? And are we next?

Today, we discuss the possibility of a more idle but settled civilisation: one that remains utterly restricted to the boundaries of their home planet and sees no point whatsoever in traversing the stars, even if they have the ability to do so, as a solution to why we aren't seeing any alien civilisations in the night sky. ►Click here to subscribe: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCB0fFWQLZ2oj-FaoDUG_wow?sub_confirmation=1 ►Written, Produced & Narrated by David ►Share this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uen6euyVYFM Music: “Cylinder Five” by Chris Zabriskie “So Many Stars” by Miguel Johnson “Sirius” by Sergey Cheremisinov Credits: Vidsplay.com

The Fermi Paradox ask us how in a Universe so vast and ancient we seem to be the only intelligent civilization around, with no older interstellar alien empires visible in the galaxy. But could extinction play a role in that, or might extinction events instead drive evolution forward?

Senior Astronomer Seth Shostak gives a short rundown of what the Fermi Paradox has to do with the search for ET.

Do you ever wonder why we're here? Why humans exist on planet Earth? Is it even slightly possible that we were put here by aliens, as part of an ancient extraterrestrial experiment, and that we just don't realise it? In this video, Unveiled explores the theories and possibilities that humankind is actually an intergalactic guinea pig, totally at the mercy of our alien overlords. What do you think? Are our lives an alien experiment? This is Unveiled, giving you incredible answers to extraordinary questions!

A new paper has come out discussing how the Fermi Paradox might be explained by the rigors of traveling space for interstellar colonization, causing settlements to be rare and and possibly not long-lived. We'll look at this model for spreading humanity out across the galaxy and see what insights or flaws it might have.

If we want to discover alien life out there in the universe, we first need to figure out where to look—and what we're even looking for. Will it be biological like us? Could it be artificial, or take some other form we haven't yet considered? And how do we find something so fundamentally different from ourselves? In this program, scientists devise plans for searching for beings beyond Earth while they grapple with the very definition of life.

Visit our sponsor, Brilliant: https://brilliant.org/IsaacArthur/ Our current theory of evolution holds that all life on Earth originated from a single, simple life form billions of years ago. But what if that life did not originate on Earth? In this episode we'll explore the theory of Panspermia, that origin of life might be extraterrestrial in origin, and that the abiogenesis of that origin life form we descend from might have descended from the sky in a comet or some other alien source. We will explore the impact this concept would have on the Fermi Paradox if true.

The Dark Forest Theory is a proposed solution to the Fermi Paradox from Cixin Liu which suggests all alien civilizations remain intentionally quiet, hiding from SETI efforts and possible hostile civilizations. It also argues they may attack any civilization which does not remain silent, like us.

The Fermi Paradox asks us where all the alien civilizations are? Today we will ask if the might be hiding in the Voids, from those between the stars to the massive Supervoids like the Boötes Void. Could they be home to Extraterrestrial Empires so large they dwarf even Kardashev-3 Civilizations?
