I guess the primary argument to this is the number of stars, and the amount of time the universe has been around... but like the universe is _very young_. Our universe currently has an expected lifespan of like a trillion years. That is to say, if it's lifespan is 100 years, it's currently a ~13 month old infant.
There is a supremely _good_ chance we, humans, are and will be the creepy ol' species we write movies about that has colonized stars and existed "since the beginning."
Should we ever successfully make it off this rock that and to another star that is...
It's fun to think about too, how will our species handle billions of years of separation at distant ends of the universe? Will we use gene therapy to ensure our "look" and aesthetic, or will culture and evolution be unpreventable yielding humanoids nearly unrecognizable to our current form?
