Why have we not yet found proof of alien life? According to astrophysicist Avi Loeb, we simply haven't dedicated the proper resources. Diving into unidentified phenomena such as the Oumuamua asteroid, he explores his scientific search for extraterrestrial technology, envisioning a future where a higher interstellar intelligence helps us improve life here on Earth.

    “I do not have a footprint on social media, I enjoy nature” … I was expecting applause but the silence was deafening.

    "Science is better than politics." Applause. 👍

    The world needs more curious farm boys. Gods speed Dr Loab!
  • @ThorPalsson
    Avi doesn't deserve that hate he has received from the scientific community Since when does science not allow curiosity and wonder? He is asking questions that are absolutely fundamental to our existence
  • @TheFutureisretro
    I loved his take on the Fermi paradox, “Single people ask this a lot, but you have to leave your house to meet people”
  • @wade8130
    A scientist who is more concerned with his reputation than with searching for answers is of little use to the world. Too many of those. Dr. Leob is a scientist who isn't afraid, and that's refreshing.

    "4 trillion dollars a year on military budgets" Insane :(
  • 4 trillion $ per year. 1000s of elements in other stellar world. Truly aliens. More alien than bizarre alienating Capital.

    Avi is taking the risk that was needed by many scientists in the past leading to incredible discoveries for mankind. I'm not going to assume he's right, but I admire his curiosity and stubbornness and just hope for him to get his breakthrough in time. It'd be the discovery of a lifetime.

    If we divert the world's military budget to science, our civilization can grow faster

    LOL, They threw him off stage. He started to talk about God and they couldn't handle it.
  • @BearOnTheMoon
    Thank you for choosing to give a TED talk worth listening to. Shame the management didn't have the decency to let you finish in peace. Hope the next generation gets a chance to hear and understand what you were trying to convey. GOOD LUCK on your next hunt.

    If I find a Tennis ball in my yard, I would be more inclined to think my neighbor has a dog.
  • I'm so happy to have him on 'our' team. Scientists swimming against the current is what we need more of. Of course he's not the only one. Professor Jacques Vallée, Professor Garry Nolan, Professor Diana Walsh Pasulka, etc., etc. Many good people unafraid of following the evidence, even if the evidence is something completely unexpected. All the scientists calling BS on the UAP/NHI question haven't even tried to look into the data. They dismiss it at forehand, which of course is very UNscientific. Thank you Prof. Loeb! ✨🛸🌟
  • @paulcantu2
    Love this man’s work and dedication!!
  • @lassereden1574
    The Spanish Inquisition is in the chat again. With those people science can't evolve, they know already everything. 🙉🙊🙈
  • @TenthCrane2788
    Of course there are advanced alien civilizations. The universe is huge. The problem is they don't want to talk to us.
