Even if we accept that technology can never afford to use the Alcubierre drive or traversable wormholes , traveling from star to star comparable to those that can reach speeds today and in multiplying, such probes could colonize the galaxy full in less than 300 million years according to his calculations. Our Milky Way is old and containing a large number of exoplanets , we can not escape the conclusion that the Earth should have been part of a galactic empire for a long time, even before the appearance of man, unless, for one reason or another, the birth and development of technological civilizations are very rare phenomena.

Max Tegmark: Yes, and I'm going even further than he did. In the last chapter of my book that I dedicated to the future of our universe, of life and our civilization I gave arguments that make me think that not only are we alone in our galaxy but probably throughout the observable universe. As a cosmologist, I am naturally led to reflect on time scales and very large space and not to focus me on the short term as we still do far too often. I believe that humanity has a huge development potential and a bright future ahead. But if we are truly unique in the observable universe, it would be a shame and a tragedy if we did not do anything to avoid disappearing.
I'm not the only one in the scientific community to be concerned about the future of humanity and the various risks facing it, environmental or technological. That's why we decided to create the FLI ( Future of Life Institute ) in a similar spirit of Foundational Questions Institute . He has a website and a Facebook where you can join us page.
