Episode Notes

Could it be that the reason we haven't seen or heard from any advanced civilizations is that interstellar settlement only happens in small clusters? This is the essence of the Percolation Hypothesis. Essentially, the challenges imposed by a Relativistic Universe and alien biology could prevent a "Galactic Empire" from ever emerging.
