Unless there is some sort of evolutionary barrier which kills off any species that reaches it, and we are the only species to pass it. Or, we could have not passed it yet, and we are all going to be killed off sometime in the future. Or a predator species will receive a signal we beam off into space and they will come and kill us because we are a potential threat to their empire. Or, there could be thousands of sentient species out there, but they are not trying to see if others like them exist because they are afraid that there is a predator species out there, and any attempts to communicate with others could lead the predators to them. Which means the whole universe could be cowering on their own little planet, afraid of something that might not even exist.
