To take the other side, we could simply be under study.

Possibly for the same reason that microbes don't realize they're being watched in a microscope? Any civilization that can develop the techology to somehow overcome C can probably hide from what would be our comparatively primitive detective technology.
Again, I'm just having some fun playing devil's advocate. Let me reiterate I don't personally believe we're being visited, myself

Radars are scanning the sky all the time, also, but the F111 has no trouble passing undetected through them

Are there any good new theories in science which answer the fermi paradox? Ive heard the ones like the "zoo theory" which is pretty fun. I keep shouting "get me out of here!" :-)

I personally don't put much stock in Fermi's Paradox. It isn't much of a paradox, really, and has some rather gaping holes in it. It's akin (but not precisely) like simply dismissing dark matter because no one's managed to physically bump into it yet

The "zoo theory", if I recall it correctly, however, IMO, is quite a stretch. At that point, you're just a hop, skip, and a jump to Niburu

Given the immense size of the universe, statistically, no matter how you choose to assign the odds, I don't see how there
can't be another intelligent race, or at least has been or will be, at some point, in our universe's history, somewhere, but as much as it goes without saying that we have no evidence of that, we also have ZERO evidence that any have ever visited here. Nada
