I think that intelligent, space-fairing life is probably rare, and here s why.
1. Only so many planets are the right distance from a star
2. Only so many of those planets also have enough water
3. Only a portion of those planets have magnetospheres, like earth, shielding them from a lot of radiation from space
4. Only some of those planets also have a large neighbor in their solar system, like our Jupiter, that helps protect them from asteroids
5. Only some of those planets have had life develop
6. Life has not gone extinct before becoming intelligent on some of those planets, but it has on others
7. Of the planets with life, only some have developed intelligent life
8. Of the planets with intelligent life, only some of them have developed intelligent life that can use tools (think of whales and dolphins)
9. Of the tool-using intelligent life, some have gone extinct for various reasons (war, disease, AI, climate change, famine, asteroids, etc )
10. Of the intelligent, tool-using life that hasn t gone extinct, only some of it developed on planets with enough rare earth metals to build advanced technology needed to develop advanced spacecraft

I think that the fact that life is so rare in our own solar system is all of the example that we need. If life was so common it definitely would've popped up elsewhere. Not only that but even if life could exist in abstract environments and thrive in abstract ways how come no ecosystems of this kind are evidently clear in our own solar system? Why would we have to look so hard then? I believe that earthlings may be the 1st or very last of it's kind. No biodiversity though of any kind evidently clear in our own solar system? Out of all of these planets and moons? Earth is booming with life! And clearly so even from way out in space. Even in the most seemingly void regions. Even a teaspoon of the ocean has millions of lifeforms!

Pah. Probability says nothing about reality - unless the probability is 1. 0 or 0. 0. ( )
Also, why do we assume that civilisations continue to exist? It seems to me that we're not going to continue to exist for too much longer, so why would any other? In which case, the massive amount of time there has been (and there will be) works against there being other intelligent life right now.
Also, light years don't just imply distance, but also time - so, we would only know about if life used to exist.
( ) unless the universe and time are both infinite, which can can't ever know - we can only know they aren't infinite.

Everything I had thought was wrong. Everything I had expected to see was wrong. I didn't see infinite possibilities of worlds to explore, of adventures to have, or living creatures to connect with. I saw the deepest darkness and silence and emptiness I could have ever imagined, it was terrifying, contrasting starkly with the welcoming warmth of our nurturing home planet. I had to get to space to understand that Earth is, and will remain, our only home. And that we have been ravaging it, relentlessly, making it uninhabitable.

Golf clap for not including that annoyingly long interaction reminder that every other one of your videos has. I've seen this on a few videos lately and I'm not sure what's going on, but it's a breath of fresh air.

Aliens probably see us as too primitive species to engage. We basically are causing our own self destruction over religion, race, resources, destroy the environment, and causing the extinction of other species.

We need to fix all of the issues on our little rock before we venture 'out there'.
When you see how we treat each other, what would we do to extra terrestrials.

The grey aliens live in Zeta Reticuli, about 34 light years from our solar system. At least two good sources have mentioned this.

Were surrounded by nothing more than rocks, ice and empty space. Aliens don't exist. Anyone who believes they do is a fckin nutjob.

Intelligent life on earth in the USA is roughly 50-50 cause there is no way you can count republicans as intelligent life
