Can we detect everything there is to detect? Are there extant things/patterns/states beyond our ability to detect? (yet)
There is what we know, there are known unknowns and there are unknown unknowns.
Absence of evidence is evidence of needing to develop better questions, leading to new perceptions/information and new ways of thinking about the information we already have. Someone had to experiment with the nature of magnetism to develop the compass to navigate the globe. Someone had to play with electricity to find out how it could be uses to convey information. Now we are technologically expressing and perceiving as a planetary society near instantaneously.
Only those who are looking for evidence will find it.
