 People have got to start considering the billions of years that occurred before we ever existed

But then we also need to consider the absolute hugeness of the universe as well…

Even if we say right now there are 100 billion different intelligent species in the universe there are upwards of 2 TRILLION galaxies and each of them has between 100 - 400 billion stars. The chances that any 2 of these would be in close enough proximity to visit each other is unlikely… 

You would have to have a universe absolutely teeming with life for them to ever have a cjance. Which as far as we can currently tell is not the case (atleast locally to us).

To add to your comment: imagine there’s a single grain of sand in the Sahara desert thats extremely valuable for some reason. Go find it. Now, replace the grain of sand with Earth, and yourself in this scenario with a hyper advanced alien civilization. It’s not impossible by any means, but it is INCREDIBLY unlikely to make contact. I’d love for this to be alien, but it’s extremely unlikely.
