The Fermi Paradox is Everything (WHERE ARE THE ALIENS?)

Where are the aliens?

The Known Universe contains more than 100 billion galaxies, each with at least 100 billion stars. There are innumerable planets.

But the age of the Known Universe is even more startling than its enormous scale: at 13.8+ billion years old, it’s far older than our solar system (4.5 billion years old), our species (a few million years old) and especially our Gregorian calendar (Mary lost her virginity 2,019 years ago).
