Fermi Math problems
Science lesson: ‘The Fermi paradox asks why no clear evidence of alien civilisations has been found, when the universe seems large enough for many to exist’ (Great Silence/cosmic silence problem). Documentary voiceover: ‘The Fermi paradox begins with a disturbing silence: if intelligent life is common, the sky should not seem so empty’ (extraterrestrial non detection problem/technosignature silence). Story writing: ‘Her novel used the Fermi paradox as its central mystery, with Earth sending signals into space and receiving nothing back’ (silent universe/empty sky problem). Everyday metaphor: ‘The missing guests created a small Fermi paradox: the party was planned, the invitations were sent, and yet nobody appeared’ (strange absence/unexplained silence).
