It’s just the MASSIVE amount of whereand when that something exists makes it incredibly unlikely that something just happens to be right next to us at the same time that we exist.
There might be “people” out there with near-light speed travel that could possibly reach us. But when did they exist? We won’t be seeing them if they lived and died out a billion years ago.
Space (crazy huge) times Time (crazy huge) is just an incomprehensibly big number. What are the chances that aliens are visiting a planet at the exact moment that the planet just so happens to be full of crazy people that claim to see aliens and make movies of aliens and seem obsessed with aliens?
I’m not doubting that something is out there.
