This is the opinion of scientists at METI – the organization Sending a message to alien intelligence.

Humans have been trying very hard to find extraterrestrial life but to no avail. However, according to some scientists, this does not mean that aliens have not found us.

At the METI International conference (Sending a message to extraterrestrial intelligence) held in Paris last week, experts discussed why despite the high rate of life in the universe. very high, but after decades we still can’t find anything.

One of the theories is that they actually found us. The point is that they are just quietly observing, so that humanity is not alarmed by the existence of a more intelligent race. They just watched silently, like an intergalactic zoo.

“It seems that the aliens are doing so-called ‘galactic isolation’, because they realize that it would cause a cultural disturbance if we knew about them,” – quote Jean-Pierre Rospars, director of the Institut National de la Recherche Agronomique.

“There is really no reason to believe that man has reached the pinnacle of intelligence. It is likely that there will be a higher life form than us on Earth in the future, or that life form already exists. now.”

Douglas Vakoch – president of METI also agrees with this view. He likens it to observing a zebra in a zoo: the horse can suddenly turn around and… kick a kick unexpectedly. It was an extreme reaction, hard to predict.

“Maybe they’re looking at humans the way we see animals in the zoo. The problem is, if we’re ready, how will they show up?” – Vakoch said.

According to Vakoch, humans need a more direct and realistic approach if they really want to communicate with aliens.
