Episode Synopsis "Explaining the Silence: Theories for Alien Life"

In this episode of Spaced Out, we dive deeper into one of the most puzzling questions: given the size and age of the universe, why haven't we found intelligent life yet? Building on the last episode about the Drake Equation and the Fermi Paradox, we explore several theories—some grounded in science, others leaning into sci-fi—that try to explain this silence.Whether you're curious about how fragile life might be, or wondering if aliens are deliberately hiding from us - this episode helps set the stage for even more questions about our place in the universe. Note: This music is not mine, you can find it on YouTube and other platforms!Title: Cosmic Storm by A Himitsu
