Are we alone? There’s a reason why this question is so intriguing; it defines how we see ourselves. Finding life would greatly alter our worldview and our place in the cosmos.

Space is vast full of billions of habitable planets and potential life forms, yet we’ve never detected any. It’s the great silence. The perplexing nature of this is known as the fermi paradox. There are many theories to explain this paradox away:

Maybe we’re too far away from one another.
Being isolated on purpose.
They’re already here but we can't sense them.
We haven’t found anything because our search has just begun.
Transcension hypothesis.
We are the only intelligent life out here in the universe.
We haven’t detected life because we’re searching in the wrong way.

Is it possible that they have transcended the physical limits as we know them? Could they be traveling and communicating in ways we never thought possible or haven’t yet discovered? Do they even perceive space, time, and base reality as we do? We assume they do. We assume a lot, but we have to as it’s all we have to go on. Nevertheless, these assumptions should be explored, examined, and scrutinized.

We will cover all that and more in this video.
