At some point we’ve all looked up into the inky black night and considered the possibility that the universe is teeming with life. But have you ever thought about whether or not space is actually littered with death?
Probably not. I mean, that’s not the chirpiest outlook to consider when wrestling with life, the universe, and everything. But then again, it’s also an incredibly likely possibility.
At least, that’s according to a new study that posits alien civilisations ended up destroying themselves through progress. Kind of like how life on our planet got considerably worse following the invention of social media, but on a grander scale.
As reported by the New York Post, NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory and California Institute of Technology researchers have outlined a new theory. They believe that the galaxy is, or rather was, home to ancient aliens that ultimately met their “complete destruction and biological degeneration,” through technological advancement.
In other words, any intelligent life that did exist in the Milky Way killed itself a long time ago. If you’re wondering how any civilization could manage that, you might want to look out of the window.
“If intelligent life is likely to destroy themselves, it is not surprising that there is little or no intelligent life elsewhere,” the researchers state in their paper on the theory. As far as explaining why we’ve yet to bump into aliens, this definitely makes sense. I just wish it wasn’t such a bummer.
I’m gonna go right ahead and choose to believe that our predecessors just built some sick af spaceships and yeeted themselves right out of the galaxy to somewhere better. As far as you can get from Earth is a good place to be these days.

But,CAn they help us not do the same???
I believe you HIT this right on the head! Yes!
I don’t know if you have watched the many varied PARANORMAL SHOWS on TV, but the majority of them always have a night sky sighting of some triangular lights or colored Orbs that split into three to six other orbs, not to forget the even stranger shaped living ectoplasm hanging in our skies! Yes, people are seeing lights in different form shooting across our skies at a velocity that leaves anything human made on earth in its dust! So what does this tell you?
Yes, I do believe we are having extraterrestrials visiting our planet! Why? Thought long and hard about this. Because the majority of these sightings seem to be close to Military installations, I do believe these aliens are “monitoring” our nuclear fission technology so we do NOT BLOW UP OUR EARTH OVER SOME LAME DISPUTE BETWEEN NATIONS. I believe these aliens have been here since the beginning of time and watched and helped form our evolution to this day. I also believe they are critical in advancing human growth from the cave man to today’s great minds!
All you have to do is take a hard look at the Egyptian Pyramids to know that the human body could not lift those mega ton carved blocks to create the immense and amazing pyramids! Humans had help — levitation?? Yeah it works! Also, if you look at Petraglyphs (ancient pictures on rocks and/or walls), you will see images of something much different than the humans of that period! Something resembling some kind of space vehicle and something depicting an entity that perhaps came from that space craft!
Aliens have been here since the dinosaurs, watching our planet. The reason we are seeing more of them is because we are dabbling in Nuclear weaponry which could destroy our World and they do not want that to happen!
I also believe that previously our Federal Govt has met with some aliens and learned more advanced technology for our Military. But the aliens are watching what we are doing with that technology and if the human race becomes too aggressive, I believe they will step in and change things up so we don’t destroy ourselves!
Many Americans have seen UFOs across the U.S.! Both my spouse and myself saw a UFO one night in the mountains of Arizona. We thought it was a Satellite slowly crossing the night sky when it sped up quickly, dropped close to the horizon and FLASHED A BRILLIANT WHITE LIGHT THAT LIT UP THE SKIES! Then it shot exceedingly fast straight up into the sky and disappeared! W O W !
A few months ago we were driving down a Main Street around 1 PM when I looked up in the cloud formation directly in front of us and saw a shiny object. I thought it was a plane, but it quickly changed direction and dropped down, hovered and shot off to the West and disappeared! No plane, no drones, etc can change direction so quickly and shoot through the skies at such an amazing speed! This was no man made object — this was alien created, driven and flown through our atmosphere! And I truly believe when these alien crafts “know” they are being observed, they “perform” to show you what they can do! I do not believe they are aggressive, but trying to communicate with our world. I also believe that not all UFOs are from the same place, but from different areas of our Universe! That is why we are seeing such a variety of UFO configurations.
IF you do not believe what I have said, check the shows on TV to see what others across the U.S. and World have seen! We are being monitored by something far more advanced than the technology we have! And it is to preserve our planet! Actually, there probably are alien bases in our oceans, deepest lakes and remote wildernesses!
Someone or something needs to monitor our human behaviors as we develop more advanced technology — and threaten to use it against our enemies! That would be the end of life on this planet (including any alien bases) and the aliens DO NOT WANT THAT HAPPENING NOR DO WE! But then we get someone running our Country that is stupid as dirt (Biden) and bad things could happen!
Thank you to the UFO’s for monitoring our skies!
Spectacularly dumb enquirer drivel. Fits this “news” outlet though.
You got that right.
Here’s my question: How would they know this? Did they somehow build a form of the Enterprise D with warp drive and visit some of these places? That’s a HUGE nope…so why put a “paper” out with something SO stupid and ridiculous as this and expect folks to take them at their word? I’m guessing that they have to put a paper or something out to prove that they are still “working” on whatever their latest money-grabbing project is at the moment.
