Plus, if teher even was otehr life, it wouldn't be in our little solar system, or else we deffinatly would've found SOMETHING by now.
In a word, "no." You have ta think, it takes Light years ta travel from one star system ta the next and there r billions of star systems out there. So it would take a very long time, millions of generations in fact, jus' ta try and get from one star system ta the next. Not ta mention our current lack of technology ta b able ta effectively communicate wit those other lifeforms that may, or may not, exist on those other planets; let alone any ability ta travel ta those other systems. Whose ta say that they also lack that technology also? We can' b certain that they have technology that even equals ours, 'cause they're so far away, or that they even have intelligence. Even scientists say that it is very unlikely that we are the only species, in this vast blackness of space, that exists. We have no proof that there r other species out there, but we do have proof; thnx ta the Hubble telescope; that there r planets out there that meet the conditions for sustainin' life. That offers some evidence, however circumstancial, that there exists a very high probablity that there is life on other planets. The real question, like I stated earlier in this thread, isn' whether or not life on other planets exist, but whether or not they r intelligent lifeforms.
