Oh, and just as an aside, the gamma ray burst from that star would have sterilized most of that ‘unknown’ galaxy.

So what I am saying is that out of 100 billion trillion worlds what % have to have life for it to be “plentiful”?

We are 100 years away from going to the stars. Think about those that went to the stars a billion years ago, million years ago, thousand years ago.

People like Ross can’t accept the truth because of their egos.

BTW, what makes people think these advanced civilization even use radio waves that would reach us now. They could have passed by 100 years ago and gone undetected or are still a millions away from getting here.

My understanding of this type of event, admittedly not great, is that the burst is somewhat directional. Not a focused beam, but not equal in every direction either. Can you elucidate?
