Start the new year by realizing how insignificant we are

Yes, but what im looking for is estimates for the number of planets like earth at the same distance to the sun, same orbit same axial tilt, in the entire universe not only the milky way. The Fermi Paradox is the most ridiculous paradox i have ever seen. Given the huge distance between everything in the universe it is quite obvious that not seeing life from other planets is not strange at all. Even if there are aliens smarter than us somewhere they may be millions of light years away and they may also not be able to travel at the speed of light. Same thing if they are close, even if there was life in the moon it would be perfectly normal if life there wasnt able to get out of the moon. I also dont believe our inteligence is as extraordinary as we think.
