The Fermi paradox

 This is the apparent mismatch between the number of planets that should support intelligent life and the total absence of any evidence that intelligent life exists.To my knowledge we have been looking for about 60-70 years without any success.

There is some conjecture that we already have several examples that do indicate that other life exists. A problem is that it may be difficult to provide iron clad evidence over the very large distances involved so no one want to stick their neck out and possibly get ridiculed by all the skeptics.
One example is a star that contains spectral lines for elements in its emitted light which exist no where else in nature and that we have only been able to make in small quantities in labs. Their half life is so short that they should not continue to show up unless they are being replenishef somehow. It has been said that this could indicate a civilisation dumping nuclear waste into their star. The star is a very long way away however si its hard to find other evidence.
