    No, it really isn't. Sorry.

    The best I can tell you is that my personal theory is that we're in the parallel universe where humans are incompetent fuck-ups and will soon drive ourselves to extinction, but somewhere out there there's at least one parallel universe where humans did better, avoided some historical pitfall, and have managed to build a more advanced society and are at least in the process of starting to build offworld colonies and explore the galaxy.
