The Drake Equation says otherwise.

N = R* • fp • ne • fl • fi • fc • L

N = The number of civilizations in the Milky Way galaxy whose electromagnetic emissions are detectable.
R* =The rate of formation of stars suitable for the development of intelligent life.
fp = The fraction of those stars with planetary systems.
ne = The number of planets, per solar system, with an environment suitable for life.
fl = The fraction of suitable planets on which life actually appears.
fi = The fraction of life bearing planets on which intelligent life emerges.
fc = The fraction of civilizations that develop a technology that releases detectable signs of their existence into space.
L = The length of time such civilizations release detectable signals into space.

Sort:  

Problem with Drake equation is that parameter fl is anyone's guess. Also you've got the Fermi paradox which is contrary to Drake Equation.
It would be amazing to confirm there is alien life. It would be just as amazing if the opposite holds true.
