The observable universe is a big place that has been around for more than 13 billion years. Up to two trillion galaxies made up of something like 20,000 billion billion stars surround our home galaxy. In the milky way alone scientists assume there are some 40 billion earth like planets in the habitable zone of their stars. When we look at these numbers it is hard to imagine that there is nobody else out there.

    @@ValouroverFear we kill millions of members of our own species every year, either by violent crime, or war, or simply hoarding vital resources. we prioritize our individual selves over our whole species. i doubt a type 2 civilization like us in that way could ever even become a type 3 in the first place, since the more they advance, the faster they push back against their own progress via war. even if they don't eradicate themselves with antimatter bombs or some other super sci-fi weapon we haven't even conceived of, they could still destroy themselves faster than they expand, and never actually go further than controlling a few solar systems as result. even if they did become a type 3, they'd likely change their ways as result of it. a type 3 civilization has virtually unlimited resources and energy, far more than they could ever use. things like killing other species would no longer provide any advantage to them, so even if they were selfish they still wouldn't have any reason to do that. there aren't any materials on earth that they can't get unlimited of from other parts of the galaxy, and if anything it'd be more of a hassle for them to take from us than from planets without life, since our nukes could still delay them from mining whatever it is they want from earth for a few weeks at least. there's just no point in stealing or war when you become that powerful, it actually becomes more trouble than it's worth, so it makes no sense that they'd be "evil". compared to that, we're pretty primitive.

    Something i think about a lot, is "the need for oxygen, water and the right temprature" (a lot of people say this) to be able to be alive, but isn't it possible for other creatures in outer space to live/breathe from other maybe unknown elements?

    The thing is, almost any element that can exist in non laboratory environments/circumstances have already been documented extensively. Any unknown element would be too unstable to help support life in any way. Even the speculated "Island of Stability". Other carbon based lifeforms can breathe gasses other than oxygen, but still require water. And there is no known carbon based lifeform that doesn't need water in some way. Maybe silicon based life, but at that point it isn't known what they would need, as silicon likes oxygen too much to be viable in an oxygenated environment as far as I know.

    the thing is aliens could be so different and not apply and known means of life, for example it is possible for a mass of liquid to be sentient if the right conditions occurred allowing it to behave like a brain. if aliens did not have the right biology and were not driven to get more resources like earth life because they didnt need to reproduce or eat, they might not evolve and realize the need to get more resources and have to expand off of their planet. the properties of earth life were a result of chaotic and random change and perfect conditions, if time was rewinded to 3 billion years ago and made to repeat, an electron might have not altered an organism's DNA causing life to be different, there is no way to expect aliens to even come close to multicellular life

    Theoretically, yes, but statistically no. Even something like non water based lifeforms (ie fluoride) they loose a substantial amount of chemical complexity due to limited bonding options against water. There's probably Creature's who do run on fluoride or are built from silicon, but it'd be a low percentile and essentially none of them would be comparably complex to us

    Questions like that are so effective at disabling any structure or strategy for searching, that scientists HAVE to ignore them or else they wouldn't get anything done basically. A common strategy for these kind of surveys involves taking gas chromatograms of an exoplanet's atmosphere, looking specifically for any molecules that don't have any known way of forming without biological processes. Yes, aliens might not even rely on their atmosphere for their biological processes, but it's something we can measure in detail and we have to apply SOME kind of metric that we know COULD work, knowing it can never be perfect.

    @@misere4 You kind of just contradicted yourself though, because if they all advance at different rates, the chances are that some would advance even faster than we have and have had more time as well. You can't argue that we shouldn't make assumption about alien's based on our experience but then say actually the other civilisations are round about the same stage as us, that would be ridiculous. I think the most likely answer to the whole Fermi paradox thing is the most boring one. Firstly I think the idea of type 3 or above is a fantasy and civilisations will hit a hard limit due to the limits of space of travel, you end up with fragmented type 2 civilisations. On top of that life is probably just so insanely rare and then complex life on top of that it's too far apart to ever encounter other life. The universe is just so big that I find it really unlikely that we really are the only intelligent civilisation, but at the same time because it's so big I think it's completely reasonable to assume we will never ever encounter or find evidence of other life so are effectively alone.

There are other sources of energy we need to be able to deploy on industrial scales like fossil fuels, such as solar, geothermal, tidal, etc. Though fusion power will bring us closer to being a type 1, a type 1 civilisation needs to be able to harness and exploit all the sources of energy on their home on a scale that they can rely safely on said sources, so not that much.

    The most important thing is that we become civilization type 2, i.e. that we can use all of the sun's energy. From this point onwards, we can spread throughout the universe at will and apply the same principle to every solar system. In this way, we scale almost boundlessly into the universe, decentralize ourselves and become immortal because no catastrophic event can affect all of humanity. Not even dangers emanating from our own sun. I love the Kardashev Scale. 😅 Keep up the great work and greetings from Cosmic Wisdom!

    This is an interesting vlog about Prof Kardashev adapting Prof Leslie White’s Culture Law (Culture = Energy × Technology) to search/compare colonies or civilization & then expanded by Prof Carl Sagan. Technically it can be used to compare human colonies/countries/civilizations with non-human colonies/countries/civilizations (e.g. apes, wolves, ants, corals, fungi, algae, etc.) although anything beyond Class/Тип 3 sounds too hard/crazy to comprehend. Sadly if one compares US, China & Russia, it is sad to watch these “Super Power” nations are caught between the devil (terrorists, brutal-police, corrupt-officials, etc.) & the deep blue sea (fascism, pandemic, economic-depression, etc.). However this is Not very surprising since Dr Kaku & the late Prof Hawking have already warned that humanity will face greater & greater hardships+dangers as it progress towards Тип 1 status. Unfortunately there is also no/little chance of turning back the clock as the late Prof Sagan (& his team) has calculated that humanity has moved pass the Тип 0.7 status. In addition Dr Crabtree & Dr Woodley discovered evidence that with each passing generations, many humans are getting genetically/biological weaker, dumber, slower or fearter despite improved/improving food, water, healthcare, nutrition, internet, telecom, education, sanitation, infrastructure, etc. To make the situation worse, scientists has uncovered the 1st Species/Lifeform of Mass Destruction/Extinction (SMD i.e. a species/lifeform that literally had directly/indirectly cause massive destruction/extinction to multiple species/lifeforms). As such it is believed that there are now at least 2 active SMDs on Earth & a 3rd one maybe emerging/awakening. Hopefully cooler heads will prevail over the fanatics+hardliners & allow humanity to overcome these hardships+dangers. May the deaths+suffering of the innocents be merciful 🙏

    Ok here's a different take on it, lets imagine highly advanced marine worms living around a geothermal vent. They might speculate on the possibilty of other vents and whether there might be life around those vents, ways to cross the cold dark ocean to get to those vents and the possibilty of a civilization harnessing the resources of a vent or an entire ocean ridge or ultimately the entire geothermal energy of the planet. Meanwhile other life has broken free of the vents entirely by utilising an entirely different energy source, sunlight. Now for vents think stars. There's a leap of imagination needed to go from interstellar to post-stellar.

    It's fascinating to contemplate the potential diversity and scale of civilizations in the universe. The Kardashev Scale offers a thought-provoking framework for understanding the progression of civilizations based on their energy usage. The prospect of eventually reaching Type 1 status is both exciting and daunting, raising questions about our responsibility as stewards of our planet and our place in the cosmos. As we continue to explore and search for signs of extraterrestrial life, it's a reminder of how much we have yet to discover and understand about the universe and our place within it.
