Saying it is largely sterile isn't non sequitur. I can't say it is completely sterile as there is life on this planet. But the probability of there being another intelligent civilizations within this universe is infinitesimal.
Regrading faster than light travel. I can't give you a detailed explanation on a forum post. But theoretically it is possible, and it would be the only means by which we could ever escape this rock. Light speed is much too slow.
The mechanism would involve creating an Alcubierr space-time manifold. Altering the shape of space-time by utilizing the Quantum Zeno Effect to shape at least one dimension of time, and leave General Relativity to demand a resulting reshaping of space. Space-time is thus reshaped quite precisely according to some guiding principles of the QZE and observed temporal change to produce an Alcubierre Space-time Manifold of exacting proportion to produce Faster-Than-Light travel without actual motion taking place.
Yes, it is impossible to go faster than light in an inertial frame of reference within the confines of this cosmos according to Special Relativity. However, in a system that is isolated from all of the above in General Relativity that is not a true statement. The Alcubierre Spacetime Manifold as Alcubierre described it in 1994 is fine, just as described, except for being upside down and backward, and not quantized. It works by stretching space to its target, then bringing up the rear. Contracting space is absurd. Our best example in nature requiring the mass of millions of stars contracting space does so with a factor of perhaps a few hundred to one. Stretching space can be infinite. The QZE has no upper boundary. The QZE acts directly on General Relativistic principles to stretch space towards its target without limit. There is no Special Relativistic consideration or limitations.
Bending space-time by brute force is rather absurd, as it takes the mass-energy of an entire star to produce minimal curvature of space-time. this was demonstrated in the 1919 solar eclipse that barely detected the bending of starlight around the sun. the type of energy and the application of such energy to artificially bend space-time in the many ways presented to date by brute force remain mysterious because it is the wrong approach to take. The simplicity is; the Quantum Zeno Effect is the suppression of ‘unitary’ time by constant observation.
The QZE was designed by nature to be the mechanism that makes one Planck interval of time ‘tick’ to the next, provide the natural flow and order of the seeming continuity of time on our macroscopic scale.
There are no ‘negative energy requirements’ necessary to produce the Alcubierre Space-time Manifold, nor wormholes, Casimir effects, ‘negative mass budgets,’ exotic matter, and so on. This is simple: Alter the progression of time via the laboratory hardened QZE, which in turn alters the shape of local space. There is no need for theories of Quantum Gravity, negative mass, causality violation, reshaping the manifold into a ring, and the many proposals over the years that simply produce a null result, nor any other improvable set of mysteries. These are all unacceptable failures in an otherwise simple approach that requires tabletop, proven technology and no direct energy requirements. To date, no industrial process has produced the QZE beyond the atomic scale. Scaling the QZE up to macroscopic proportions would be required. The mechanism to achieve this requires math that I won't post on here.
