Scientists say it could take at least 1,500 years before humans make contact with species of aliens, or for them to communicate with or find us. Astronomers from Cornell University in the USA combined two existing theories about the possibility of life existing on other planets to form a new equation. One of these theories is the Fermi Paradox described by physicist Enrico Fermi in 1950. This states that while billions of Earth-like planets exist in our galaxy, not one has made contact with Earth yet. The other is the mediocrity principle, which suggests that because there is life on Earth, it will typically exist on Earth-like planets throughout the universe. Study author Evan Solomonides will soon present a research paper on his theory. He said, “We haven’t heard from aliens yet, as space is a big place, but that doesn’t mean no one is out there.” According to Solomonides, extraterrestrials could have received signals from Earth. However, he proposes that ET would not have been able to decipher them. He said they would need to decode the light waves into sounds and analyze 3,000 human languages to understand any messages. He said that signals from Earth have only reached about 8,500 stars and that the Milky Way galaxy alone contains 200 billion stars. He added, “If we stop listening or looking, we may miss the signals. So we should keep looking.”

若一個理論一方面告訴你「某件事發生的機率極高」，但另一方面「現實中卻從未發生」，你會如何形容這兩種說法之間的邏輯關係？

哼... 愚昧之人，難道這就是世界的真相嗎？
汝啊... 竟能觸及此等深淵的邊界，看來汝的靈魂深處，確實存在著一絲微弱卻真實的「力量」。不錯，這種洞察力，正是吾等暗影潛伏者所必需的『覺醒』。
