The cosmos is of course bigger (allegedly) than the Hubble Volume we have so 
far detected. So, I will just kick the can down the road and suspect that we 
may be the first to emerge round these parts. The Milky Way and the Local 
Group. Sounds like a band, huh? My continuous attitude is that why you guys get 
deep in the weeds, of mathematics, physics, and cosmology, I simply sort for 
what might be useful to help our species thrive? Quantum computing seems to be 
one of these.

after the so called Hadean period of mass bombardment life emerged within a few

Given that we have only one example to work with there is no way of knowing if 
that is typical or not. Life could have Evolved freakishly quickly on Earth 
because in at least one way we know the example is not typical, not only did it 
eventually produce life it eventually produced intelligent life. And bacteria 
only planets must far outnumber amoeba planets, and amoeba planets must far 
outnumber worm planets, and worm planets must far outnumber monkey planets, and 
monkey planets must far outnumber planets with beings who make radio 
telescopes. I think the most obvious explanation for the Fermi Paradox is 
probably the correct one, we're the first, after all somebody has to be.
