There are various arguments as to why aliens have not visited earth such as “there’s so much empty space in the universe, the likelihood of them finding us is infinitesimal” or “we’re not interesting enough for such advanced civilizations to study.”
I think there’s validity to the empty space argument for the following reason: there are billions, if not trillions - or an infinite - number of earth-like planets in the universe. Ours is not interesting but for the fact that Earth hosts intelligent life. However, human civilization has only been able to emit radio signals for less than 200 years. Since radio signals seem like the most likely cause of discovery, I don’t think that’s enough time to be detected and then visited.
Thoughts?
