Not having a degree in astrophysics does not make you "dumb" or a "tard". He is a natural at explaining the beautiful phenomena of our universe. Stop trying to put people down, listen to him and learn something about the planet we live in and the universe we are a part of.

    Fermi paradox - The apparent contradiction between the lack of evidence for extraterrestrial civilizations and various high estimates for their probability.
    Abiotic emergence of ordered information stored in the form of RNA is an important unresolved problem concerning the origin of life.
    A polymer longer than 40-100 nucleotides is necessary to expect a self-replicating activity, but the formation of such a long polymer having a correct nucleotide sequence by random reactions seems statistically unlikely.
    The expected number of abiogenesis events is much smaller than unity when we observe a star, a galaxy, or even the whole observable universe.
    The observable universe is just a tiny part of the whole universe and there is no strong reason to expect more than one abiogenesis event in such a small region.
    This gives an explanation to the Fermi’s paradox (we need a much larger universe to have other life than earth - the multiverse)
