Current prevailing theories point towards somewhere between 100 Billion-200 Billion Galaxies in the Universe. Our own Milky Way is estimated to have anywhere from 100 Billion-400 Billion Stars.
Quite literally the number of stars may as well be infinite. And each star will have one or more planets. Meaning an infinite number of worlds.
When the bulk Humanity can reliably travel to and from Earth. It’ll trigger a Golden Age of technological development and exploration that would make Colonial Europe Green with Envy. Colonies spread over countless worlds. Great Fleets of Explorers and Merchantmen plying the new frontiers.
The potential of humanity is boundless. Only limited by self-imposed limitations. Whether knowingly placed or not.
That’s not even factoring in the potential for other life. What would such beings look like? About the only thing I’m reliably sure of regarding Aliens. The first people to try and bang the aliens will probably be in the Military.
