MODERATORS
Ruling them out seems absurd, given the 0% of the universe we can see in sufficient detail - but the difference between 'they're in the next galactic arm' and 'it's just us' is mostly philosophical.
When people ask NASA about aliens, they mean, do you have some. And the answer is no.
No one can say anything definitive about the universe.
But there are certainly intelligent life forms far ahead of us by thousands of years.
