Fermi Paradox – what is it?
Here's what you need to know...
- The Fermi Paradox isn't strict evidence for alien life – but more of a thought experiment
- It's a famous contradiction posed by physicist Enrico Fermi
- Fermi suggested that the enormous size of the universe – and the billions of Sun-like stars in the galaxy, and their planets – makes it highly likely that there is intelligent life out there
- Some of these civilisations may have developed interstellar travel
- But Fermi also noted that there's a significant lack of evidence for life on other planets
- The chances of aliens being able to reach us are high, but there's no evidence that aliens ever have
- This paradox has baffled scientists for decades
