in 1950 at los alamos a scientist was talking with his friends and the conversation had them all fully engrossed about this universe that almost has no ends and as they were all about to return to their study enrico suddenly shouted where is everybody and he worked out a few simple calculations that indicated we should have been visited thousands of times at least based on his estimations oh that s the fermi paradox if they re out there why don t we hear em talk the galaxy just keeps on spinnin with four hundred billion stars in it and i just can t believe that we could be unique when there s so much space in this galaxy oh i want pandora s box to be open but instead we re stuck in fermi s paradox there are dozens of ways this paradox might be resolved and you probably can think of some yourself maybe civilizations very rarely evolves or maybe god sent them all to hell or maybe advanced technology leads to its own destruction or maybe species lose interest in reproduction or maybe they re just afraid of what we ll do when we find out so they re hiding until we grow a bit and don t have the same tendency to frequently freak out oh that s the fermi paradox if they re out there why don t they talk the galaxy just keeps on spinnin with four hundred billion stars in it and i just can t believe that we could be unique when there s so much space in this galaxy oh i want pandora s box to be open but instead we re stuck in fermi s paradox oh the question of whether there is more life out there as far as i m concerned is moot but it appears that the aliens do not use foursquare and no i m not trying to be cute because the way that we listen is defined by our ears and the time that we ve been listening just a couple dozen years we ll be lucky when we see them if we notice them at all our cosmic phone could be ringing off the hook right now and we re just not answering the call  oh yeah we re stuck in fermi s paradox oh no we re stuck in fermi s paradox oh no we re stuck in fermi s paradox
