I don’t think people fully appreciate just how vast space is. The nearest star is over 4 light years away. That’s 186,000, times 60, times 60, times 24, times 365, times 4 miles away...
That’s the nearest star.

Yeah, it’s a good point. But we only have 1 example of life so far, us. So for just one other theory, maybe the drive to explore is super rare or something. Hard for us to imagine, but that would be truly alien, right?

Don’t get me wrong, your theory is as valid as anything else for sure. It can’t be proven to be wrong. I can’t see how it is proven right either though.
