That doesn't mean there isn't anything. It just means the answer hasn't been found yet.
In my world, the giant squid- a cephalopod that can grow anywhere from 33 to 43 feet long from tip to tip -was widely regarded as the subject of sea myths and speculation for literally thousands of years, until specimens actually started making the rounds in scientific study in the 1800's, complete with specimens washed up on shore. Nowadays it's a recognized species that we've managed to see alive and in actual movement; not only that, but an even BIGGER squid has been found!
Fluttershy. [He made a short noise, spreading his hands lightly as he thumped them down toward against his thighs, both feet resting now on the step below him.] I don't want to forget you. Or Sylvia, or Nes, or anyone else. Not again. And I want to keep seeing you, and everyone else, and I want to do everything it takes to do that.
And even though many people greater than me have tried, that's not gonna stop me from finding a solution somehow.
