Fermi Paradox: Here’s What an Alien Civilization Settling the Galaxy Looks Like


Interesting research to the Fermi Paradox and how fast settlement of our Galaxy can be done in various scenario's. Also, animations!

The simulation shows a significant fraction of a galaxy can be settled in a relatively short period of time, even with ships traveling no faster than the Voyager spacecraft. Further, the center of the galaxy could be a cosmic cantina that’d make even George Lucas blush.
