Extraterrestrial Life and Theories

The video explores the Fermi Paradox, questioning why we haven't found extraterrestrial life despite the high probability of its existence. It introduces the Great Filter Theory, suggesting a significant obstacle prevents civilizations from advancing. Two scenarios are discussed: the filter is either behind us, making intelligent life rare, or ahead, posing future challenges. The role of AI and potential habitats for life in our solar system, like Enceladus, Titan, and Mars, are examined. The video concludes with a call to continue searching for life.

What does the Fermi Paradox question about extraterrestrial civilizations?

• Why they are hostile
