more science proof: We are the only intelligent life in the Universe - the Gaian Bottleneck

you may recall my thread already solving Fermi's paradox,

here's the latest (and more):

The aliens are silent because they are extinct | ANU


"The mystery of why we haven't yet found signs of aliens may have less to do with the likelihood of the origin of life or intelligence and have more to do with the rarity of the rapid emergence of biological regulation of feedback cycles on planetary surfaces," he said.

Wet, rocky planets, with the ingredients and energy sources required for life seem to be ubiquitous, however, as physicist Enrico Fermi pointed out in 1950, no signs of surviving extra-terrestrial life have been found.

A plausible solution to Fermi's paradox, say the researchers, is near universal early extinction, which they have named the Gaian Bottleneck.

"One intriguing prediction of the Gaian Bottleneck model is that the vast majority of fossils in the universe will be from extinct microbial life, not from multicellular species such as dinosaurs or humanoids that take billions of years to evolve," said Associate Professor Lineweaver.


Gaian regulation:

The regulation of carbon dioxide and climate: Gaia or geochemistry.


we are all alone in the Universe. enjoy it! we got the whole place to ourselves!!
