No, the null hypothesis is that if life can evolve here then it must be able to evolve elsewhere, unless for some reason it could only evolve here, in which case we are unique and special. You have a pre-copernican model of the universe
I'm asking for any sort of evidence to indicate that the thing you're claiming exists actually exists. If there's no evidence then that's a supposition.
What if I'd said that we shouldn't invent warp drives because then the Reapers will come kill us all? Would you be wanting some kind of evidence from me that Reapers existed?
Think you should probably read this https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Null_hypothesis
Yes, and? The null hypothesis with regard to the question of whether aliens exist is that aliens don't exist. That's the null hypothesis. It behooves you to disprove it.
