I don't care how big the universe is, that's not happened too many times. It's just not probable. The conditions are so hard to create. But, I do acknowledge that it is possible. Factor in the bountiful evidence of multiple global extinctions throughout our earth's history, I wonder that any sentient race could survive long enough to develop that kind of advanced technology assuming they had to start with nothing, like us. I dunno, I just can't see aliens being any different mentally from us. What do I know, though?
