    CNet[^]:

    Researchers are finding no obvious signs of life after digging through thousands of galaxy images in search of advanced civilizations.

    That's because they were "A long time ago"

      They might try looking out the window.

          100K is what like .0002% of the sky? Keep looking guys, you're just getting started.

            A galaxy is too large to discard and more so being as far as they are from one another. Intergalactic space is inconceivably immense. Perhaps they meant 100,000 star systems.

              Actually, they're looking "a long time ago". Life could have evolved in the time it takes light to cover the distances involved in some cases.

                Technical responses hurt my joke organ, even when completely accurate. ;)

                    I wonder what will happen if they DO find something

                    M.D.V. ;) If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about? Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.
