The likelihood of alien life in the universe has decreased dramatically in the past hundred years. A hundred years ago, the possibility of moon men was considered to be realistic. Then we got obsessed about Martians until we landed probes there and found...just red sand and rocks. Oh, and NO canals. Then we figured SETI would detect intelligent life in the universe. So far...a big NOTHING.

And with the observation of other star systems we've found out how strange our own really is.

No hot Jupiter wiping out planets in the habitable zone.

No Super-Earth's with crushing gravity.

No planets at all within the orbit of Mercury.

The Earth itself with a large moon to stabilize wobbling and give a stable climate and a powerful magnetic field to hold it's atmosphere...

Also amazing is that the moon is at the EXACT correct size and distance from the earth to give us perfect total eclipses with just the sun’s corona showing. The possibility of this is infinitely low and that is combined with the fact that the Earth is the only known place with intelligent life. So perhaps eclipses (extremely rare but taken for granted) are God’s way of winking at us.
