Not discussed by the article, but I wonder...Is it more terrible to find out that nobody's out there? Nobody's listening?

- holografix 8y agoNo. It’s much better that there’s no one out there than we being the colonised.
- zzzcpan 8y agoOr how about this: find out that somebody's out there, but not evolved enough to be listening? This I find likely. Fixes Fermi paradox too, since this doesn't assume high probability of random life on some planet evolving as far as we did in those billions of years.
- zokier 8y agoDoing exhaustive search of the universe is pretty big task; I don't think we can anytime soon determine that nobody is out there.
