There has to be life outside of our universe. There is an incredible number of planets and stars and galaxies beyond our own;a number far beyond human comprehension. Our evolution is imperfect and flawed, yet we have still become the most powerful and intelligent species within millions and millions of miles. Conditions like ours that can support life could very easily arise somewhere else in the universe. THere has been such a wide window of time, and so much space for it to happen, that it is inevitable that there is life somewhere else in the universe. If we can exist, why should we be the only ones?

There are many planets , with supstences of H2o *Water* on them . Where there is water there can be life. Since the earliest hominid species diverged from the ancestor we share with modern African apes, 5 to 8 million years ago, there have been at least a dozen different species of these humanlike creatures. Many of these hominid species are close relatives, but not human ancestors. But it only takes one to evolve creating a sucsessful species, just takes two animals with good offspring to create a more human like spcies.
Most scientist say that Earth started out as a *star* that was mostly mad out of valcanos, and that many meteors hit earth making its huge trenches within our ocean. But after all of the meteors hit earth , it started to rain , for Billions of years, Then formed an Ice age ... Which soon after melted making land and our oceans . And within our oceans life began...

But of course *humans were first evolved by creatures that lived in water . All there has to be within that water is bacteria, which could form into something over time. Then create a Ape like animal , *Which is a close ancestor to hominids*.


Well the point of planet earths history is , it could have happend some where else , within our Solar System or not. Maybe billions of light years away.


If you have any thing you would like to say just post on this fourm . Im going to keep this on my page. Hope it gets somewhere.

Enjoy!!

So if Europa might have microbial life, we probobally could find life elsewhere. Heck, for all we know Alpha Centauri might have an earth sized waterworld.

considering the size of the universe probably yes

I think there is because it would be a waste of time to only have one planet with life on it and have all of the infinite others have no life on it.


I don't think it being a waste or not has anything to do with it.

Even with infinite space there is finite amounts of matter. Though there is still plenty enough for the odds to be favorable.


If there is an infinite amount of space, then how is the amount of matter finite?

-the average rate of star formation per year in our galaxy
-the fraction of those stars that have planets
-the average number of planets that can potentially support life per star that has planets
-the fraction of the above that actually go on to develop life at some point
-the fraction of the above that actually go on to develop intelligent life
-the fraction of civilizations that develop a technology that releases detectable signs of their existence into space
-the length of time for which such civilizations release detectable signals into space

Guys , I hope you know you cant just copy and paste things into your comment . It's copy write, i can tell when someone is just copying something when they have blue titles within the comment. Kind of foolish to not know what you're talking about , but just tring to act smart and copy an old " Term " or " Phrase " . Atleast know the topic and if your going to copy and paste something , leave the link you got it from .

I think the bigger and more important question to ask here is, will we ever get out of are solar system....

As far as I can tell the human lifespan traps us


Just ten more years and the voyager probes are officially out of the suns sphere of Influence and into interstellar space.


And besides, the Ion engine will cut the trip to mars from 8 months to three weeks. Let's see what happens if we build an interstellar space ship.


As always, your local Scientist.

And from the top of his head, no googling or research needed.

Sorry didn't see your question. This is like asking if a container can hold 5 gallons of water why isn't there 5 gallons in the container. With the matter energy in the universe it only takes up a small percent of what's actually out there. With dark matter an dark energy taking up most of it.

I think TheAmazingAtheist on Youtube had a good analogy. Think of the universe like a hamburger wrapper. The dark matter and energy is the burger and that stuff stuck to the wrapper is the regular matter/energy we know about.

I believe that yes,there is life outside our solar system.In our solar system might not be.But there are billions systems and zillions planets in this never ending huuuuge WORLD.And it's impossible for us to be the only one's to exist.Its IMPOSSIBLE!Of course they differ.They do not live like we do.They might not be the aliens we know,those little - tall green creatures with black eyes and no noses.They might just be germs or bacteria or just worms.And the might evolve in 20000000000 millions years,just like it happened with us.

now it's not the "universe"
it's a "multiverse"
there are other kind of life
which may be they are in the other dimension
I mean different physics

In an infinite Universe there must be by the property of being infinite and infinite amount of matter. Though the amount of space is a larger infinite than the amount of matter. In the same way that there are a larger amount of decimal number than counting numbers since between the numbers 2 and 3 there are an infinite number of decimal numbers whereas in the counting set there are only 1.

But our observable universe is finite so there is also a finite amount of matter.

Also dark matter could just be large singularities in another dimension that are affecting the gravity of our universe like for example a black hole.

now it's not likely the "universe"
it's likely "multiverse"
there are other kind of life
which may be they are in the other dimension

Multiverse is not a proven concept the math is suggesting it but it's not proven.

OP's should really define by what Universe they are referring to. Since in one it's likely and in the other it's an inevitability.

No it doesn't have to have an infinite amount of matter in it. It could be like how a mobius strip is infinite. Or as some theorize like a 3D torus (dounut universe) we can have a universe without boundary but still have a finite amount of stuff in it.

I am pretty sure there is life outside our Solar System

Sas. you should explan more lol , i've been off for a couple months but i came back and saw my Fourm has stoped growing, lol shall we continue? Anyways there is no proff that I know of. Alot of images are fake . Some are made in Photo Bucket, like the one on page 1. I've seen that before, someone just added a skull then pasted it on a moon pic. But also i've never seen the effect of the image like the one on Page 1 . So lets try and keep this topic going.

Well, in my case, im not sure if their planets outside our Solar system. But what I am sure their is living creatures other than earth, but all of this may not be true...or could it?
