Where Are They, All Those Aliens? | Episode 305 | Closer To Truth

All this talk of no evidence. Our search for life in the universe is like wading into the ocean with a shot glass, scooping some water, and inspecting it with your eye and concluding the ocean must be lifeless. Our search has not even begun.

If a super advanced civilization hundreds of millions of years older than us wanted to keep Earth isolated as a zoo, blocking out all signs of their existence in the universe would be easy. Like draping a curtain over a birdcage..

The first step in learning is to admit that you don't know. The 2nd step is to declare that I want to know.

Imagine if they are already millions of years ahead in terms civilization... i think they could not even be bothered with our own existence...

Can I just say you do a fantastic job covering some really difficult to talk about subjects, thanks it’s brilliant!!

Much of this search for aliens reminds me of a family leaving New York City for the Grand Canyon. They're not even out of the driveway when the kids start demanding: "Are we there yet?"

Can't get enough of this stuff. Great channel!

This show is the best on YouTube. Neurologist curious about human consciousness leading him to search for other life and answers to our own existence. Brilliant ! Then he interviews the smartest people on earth about our future. Great program . Thank you.

I find it absurd to assume that intelligent alien life would act like we do.
