    Default Do you think there is life somewhere out there?

    Just a brief question do you think there is life out there and do you think they will be human-like

    Deffenetly yes... Voted for the second one... Hard to find, because the Universe is too big to have no life in it But its hard to find, because the way is to long, and we have not the technology for that...

    Due to the incredible size of the universe, there probably is.

    Yes, but life is very rare because there are certain conditions which are very hard to get for life to exist.

    I'm pretty sure there is, but we're not going to find it for a looooong time because the universe is just too big for our current technology.

    Gort has traveled 250 million of your Earth miles to tell Earthlings that YES there is life 'out there' as you so quaintly put it. That 'life' is now on your planet..you may begin to worship me immediately
    Gort doesn't need a puny signature!

    I voted Yes. I believe that there is.The universe is vast and filled with Billions And And Billions of Galaxy's.So there bound to be life in one of them at the very least we just haven't discovered them yet.I mean we haven't left our own Galaxy yet and it may very well be hundreds and hundreds of years until we do unless we develop warp engines like in star trek in the coming decades or something similar.But i believe there is life out there.We just need to find it.

    Of course there is life outside Earth. Those are pretty good odds.

    No, there is no life beyond us. Why? Because something inclines me to believe that the event that made this world habitable...was pre-meditated. Prove to me that aliens exist, and I'd be happy to change that view. Til that unlikely day comes, consider me a cynic with his eyes turned towards Terra.

    People always seem to assume that intelligent life = advanced life. What if WE are the most advanced race in the galaxy? That is a possibility.

    Because we are the only form of life to exist in the universe. Case closed.

    Prove it. I mean I amn't sure but I don't like narrow minded people like him. Please prove there isn't another form of life form out there??

    The burden of proof lies with you. I have stated that there is no other form of sentient life in the universe besides mankind. Since mankind is the only sentient life that we know exists, that provides a solid basis for my observation.

    Yes and Earth used to be flat until mankind discovered otherwise. Case closed

    WOW!! No, really, you must tell me how you came by the conclusion that discovering life or vice versa, from ANOTHER planet, is comparable to Columbus. Actually, to the Vikings if we want to get technical about it. Really, REALLY poor comparison to make there, mate!

    Which, by mathematical logic is very wrong...
    There are like 300 billion stars in the Milky Way, alone. Chances for a star system with a similar main star and a solid world within 1 AU is, going by these numbers, rather good. But since the distance between our worlds it will properly never be relevant to us, and we'll properly never encounter intelligent life. But this alone does not equal that there is no sentient life out there, somewhere!

    The main problem (if we ever find intelligent life, or another habital world) is that the Universe is expanding.. The distance between our stars are expanding, at a growing rate. So even if we managed to figure out how to travel FTL, we would most certainly end up lost as coordinates are basicly worth little.

    Life, sure. I think chances are pretty high that there's some form of sentient life out there. It being humanoid, however... I doubt it.

    Eh, probably.

    In contrast to the efforts of tiny Israel to make contributions to the world so as to better mankind, one has to ask what have those who have strived to eliminate Israel from the face of the earth done other than to create hate and bloodshed.
