The Nordin Dystopia is a possible explanation to Fermi's Paradox:
The Nordin Dystopia speculates that it the following might be the case:The Fermi paradox (or Fermi's paradox) is the apparent contradiction between high estimates of the probability of the existence of extraterrestrial civilization and humanity's lack of contact with, or evidence for, such civilizations.The basic points of the argument, made by physicists Enrico Fermi and Michael H. Hart, are:
- The Sun is a young star. There are billions of stars in the galaxy that are billions of years older;
- some of these stars probably have Earth-like planets which, if the Earth is typical, may develop intelligent life;
- presumably, some of these civilizations will develop interstellar travel, a technology Earth is investigating even now, such as that used in the proposed 100 Year Starship;
- at any practical pace of interstellar travel, the galaxy can be completely colonized in a few tens of millions of years.
- Any civilization advancing to a certain point will realized that:
- a variant of Utilitarianism is the only acceptable moral
- more organization, development, evolution and intelligence will invariably with mathematical certainty lead to more suffering and by (1) it will there for be immoral.
- The most moral action to do is therefore to immediately exterminate all life and civilization.
- This action would be the action reducing suffering the most
