It's like how before the telegram was invented, the federal government had barely any control over the states because of how long news took to travel. It could take over 6 months for news to travel across the country that the president got assassinated. It's wild to imagine. It makes sense why the U.S. became so separated from Britain, given news would have taken even longer. It's interesting to wonder how things would have been different if the telegram had already existed when the U.S. was first settled by the British. Maybe we would still be a part of Britain.

As someone who's played GalCivsIII, Stellaris, and Spore. Maintaining and expanding a galactic empire is a pain the bum. There's lots of resource gathering to be done, ship maintenance, colony administration and it is a race to procure all the resource hotspots to afford everything and procure good trading. Top that with all the tech research to terraform and FTL and immigration plans to new planets, and also keep stellar bases and bastions to defend against enemy empires. Space expansion is serious business while you are also 'sneakily' advancing a primitive civilization from bronze age to final frontier stage, you have to consider to either hand over the system to them or keep them under your jurisdiction either as a vassal faction or under the blanket of your flag.

It's not really a pain. If you play Stellaris AS THE FIRST alien (by turning off all other empires), it's VERY easy. No one else can get a foothold, no one else can harm you, and you just expand to everywhere. That's what the premise of grabby aliens entails, not the usual 'everyone pops up at the same time' mechanic in Stellaris to make things fair. Real life very likely isn't like that. This is why I believe we are first. Otherwise, we'd be in the borders of some alien species, and likely would never have evolved to this stage due to it. Because even if expanding isn't 'easy', a few million years is enough time for any alien species (or likely AI!) to cover the galaxy.

We literally would never have the chance to become space fairing if any species in the galaxy was space fairing before us by even a few hundred thousand years, and given the age of the galaxy, odds are VERY low any species just popped into existence within a few tens of thousands of years of us, which is the only reason we wouldn't encounter them. Basically, us being first is the simplest explaination.

The isolated island theory is the one I think is most likely. That "Ancient Aliens" show is a hoot. The basic concept isn't that absurd to me, but those guys really know how to break out the Planters and crank the nut knob up to eleven. I was reading this article last night about how they may have detected a type of particle called "glue balls" for the first time. It was pretty neat, and it finally explained the concept of "color" in a way that made it so much less abstract than other readings were making it out to be.

One good analogy for why we haven't found alien civilizations yet is that the universe is so vast and diverse that we've only probed a tiny fraction of it, like taking a glass of water from the ocean. Because there are no fish in it, we can't make any assumptions about the existence or absence of fish, or from small, unintelligent fish colonies to highly developed fish empires. Today, all these assumptions are just thought experiments. We really don't know and can't know anything about intelligent life in the universe until we have the enormous luck to find one with our limited scientific instruments. And all that is true vice versa.

My grandfather remarked, the advancement of aviation and manned spaceflight was due to the improvement of power plants (engines) and airframe design. Could a similar analogy be applicable for theoretical physics? While generalizations of the standard model allowed insight, the one equation to 'rule them all 'or set of ultimate equations has failed. Possibly, the speed of light (c) is a more than physical constraint of the known universe, but a theoretical limit of modern theory to provide an accurate description of it. Perhaps novel high-order mathematics will be instructive, its difficult to recognize brilliant theory from conjecture when processes are beyond our perception. Traveling past the speed of light appears a logical contradiction, however what if light isn't involved? As new technology solves old problems, new problems invariable surface in it's wake. Speed is essential for fragile biological organisms to endure the hazards of deep space. As with the advancement of airpower, the future exploration, development and containment of new forms of energy, and the systems to harness it - will unlock the heavens above and earth below.

I wouldn't trust Kurtz's estimates on the timeframe of terraforming mars and venus, or really any of their videos on how some crazy space technology might be possible. They generally only show best case scenerios that inspire people to think of what could be possible, and worst case scenerios that are dramatic and scary. The more mundane and realistic issues that will probably make these things impossible, unlikely, or only possible extremely far in the future aren't discussed. I do enjoy these videos, it's just that they shouldn't be seen as an accurate representation of how long something might take or whether a technology is possible. They are more just for fun and to imagine what it would look like if these things were possible and what the implications of that would be. That's just my take on it, though.

To me, the timescale is the real problem. The fastest human made object would take 3,500 years each direction, 7,000 years total to reach the nearest star and return and it's a flare star so it's not a good candidate. The oldest human writing is 5,400 years old. No culture has ever lasted even close to that long and we don't really have any indication that our current culture has "solved" that problem. Nor do any of the hypothetical ways to reach nearby stars faster work. All the ideas about traveling at some significant fraction of c require propulsion for the entire trip (half accelerating, half decelerating) and no technology we know of, not even ion drive, can make that work theoretically with the rocket equation. When you add in life support and water shielding systems, we can't even make slower propulsion work theoretically with the rocket equation. Just getting there at all, let alone faster than thousands of years, requires optimism for a new breakthrough. This lack of a new breakthrough is what they meant by space being "hard". Ultimately, if nobody can solve some of the currently impossible engineering challenges, every habitable world is going to be forever alone. I used to be optimistic that someone clever would work out how to make Alcubierre's drive system work without exotic matter - but now that they have, I've looked at it more closely and it's not a faster than light drive because the control mechanisms would have to break causality to move the area of contracting spacetime faster than light.

The current countries will surely not last for 1000 years. When the probe came back there would be no United States of America, or any other of the current nations. But still humans would be around and might be able to pick it up without destroying them. We just have to make sure any subsequent society will know about it and have an interest on it.
