Why we might be alone in the Universe

RE: Why we might be alone in the Universe

If that is the case, and within that knowledge we can’t find a way to travel not at the speed of light but beyond that, and an extremely powerful communication system, we are doomed to extinct alone.

The only possibility would be if another intelligent species have access to something we don’t or if the multi universe theory is correct, and someone from a different universe contact us which is extremely unlikely

I think if we don't nuke ourselves to extinction, we will be able to find answers to lots of things we don't currently know. But as far as things like transporters, warp drives and worm holes and time travel, I don't see those things happening as a pragmatic reality. We might figure out the gap between classical physics and quantum physics, but I think most of that would be on paper only.

There is still is lots of steps between a wave function, to a particle, to an atom to a molecule to material to macro.
