Duhh life in outspace is real how can we be the only living tings in the world |
| |
|
| |
|
| |
|
|
|
There probably is some form of intelligent life out there, i refuse to believe we're the best the
universe has to offer |
| |
|
| |
|
| |
|
|
|
Definitely. The universe is huge, it's laughable to assume that we are *so* special. I believe their
has to be at least one other form of intelligent life in the whole universe. |
| |
|
| |
|
| |
|
|
|
It is insane to think that in all the universe we are the only intelligent life. No way |
| |
|
| |
|
| |
|
|
|
If there are aliens, which I kind of do and don't believe, they probably have a lot of brain power
if they are what they are described as. If they are shaped as a human in a way, then I would have to
agree that they do. |
| |
|
| |
|
| |
|
|
|
I won’t go into the actual math again but with around a hundred and twenty five billion galaxies
out there and if one out of a billion earthlike planets actually harbor life that still leaves
around 6 ¼ billion planets that may harbor life. Even assuming every planet that harbors life
eventually develops intelligence (a big if) that’s one planet per 20 galaxies; meaning that to
visit us they would have to find us then likely have to cover galactic distances which are mind
bogglingly big. Not to mention we’ve only been worth talking to for let’s say 50,000 years to be
generous, out of the 14 billion year history of the universe.
To sum up;
Intelligent life… likely
Finding us… unlikely
Getting here… really unlikely
Getting here when we in our timeframe… really really unlikely |
| |
|
| |
|
| |
|
|
|
Yes, i agree with you. We are but one tiny planet in an infinitte universe. The fact that we exist
is proof enough that life outside our planet exists. |
| |
|
| |
|
| |
|
|
|
It's a fact. They found life on Mars. |
| |
|
| |
|
| |
|
|
|
Probably...but to paraphrase George Carlin, if you were an alien and you saw the types of things
humans are capable of, like necrophilia, incest, rape, torture, cannibalism, etc....would you land
here? |
| |
|
| |
|
| |
|
|
|
And they are coming for our WOMEN!! ;P
Anyone who can sit counting stars, knowing that each is a sun with a solar system surrounding,
knowing that the naked eye only sees a tiny fraction of those suns to start with that are out there,
and yet try to claim that intelligent extraterrestrial life does NOT exist may as well also insist
that the world is flat. |
| |
|
| |
|
| |
|
|
|
There are hundreds of millions of billions of Atmosphere out there and so many galaxies each with
there sun usually so it is a likely chance there are others out there |
| |
|
| |
|
| |
|
|
|
It may not exist as we are familiar with it but i think that it exists |
| |
|
| |
|
| |
|
|
|
Of course it exists, same as there is quite likely the possibility of more primitive life existing. |
| |
|
| |
|
| |
|
|
|
The Universe is very large. And other planets have been around much longer the Earth. And it places
where there is life, most of the time one species come out dominant. People just can not comprehend
what happen in billions if not Trillions of years. |
| |
|
| |
|
| |
|
|
|
You've got to destroy all concepts of what we define as "life" when thinking about the notion of
intelligent beings. "Aliens" could take any shape and any form that we could think of, from beings
the size of an atom to monsters the size of skyscrapers to abstract intelligence riding on the wind.
Anything could be possible, and with an infinite universe, there must be something out there. |

Zillions of planets... I think the hype about aliens visiting us is a little silly. The first thing
they'd probably do is see our planet and say "holy skeet! How could anything possibly live in these
conditions!?!" They sure as hell wouldn't be able to set appendage inside our atmosphere or say
hello. The communication barrier would be so complex we would probably understand their minds less
than we do plants'. We probably wouldn't have any idea how in the universe whatever they fly is
flying..we might not even be able to see it..or them... I wouldn't be surprised at all if things
like cockroaches formed in several places in the universe. Even less so if simple photosynthetic
organisms like phytoplankton, algae, stromatolites...etc. Existed. |
| |
|
| |
|
| |
|
|
|
Yes, I believe this is true, but the possibility for life to exist is infinitesimal. We got lucky
to get just the perfect conditions to survive. Because of this, I think Earth visitation is
unlikely, because life in the universe has to be terribly sporadic. |
| |
|
| |
|
| |
|
|
|
The universe is so freaking huge (infinitely vast) that there has to be something out there, even if
it is %$#@ing E.T.! |
| |
|
| |
|
| |
|
|
|
The universe is a huge place and its most likely that life is on one of those planets. |
| |
|
| |
|
| |
|
|
|
It's almost impossible for aliens NOT to exist. With all the possibilities in the universe,
something will be out there |
| |
|
| |
|
| |
|
|
|
Certainly. There are potential billions of planets in the universe, and the chance that only ours
has life on is minute. |
| |
|
| |
|
| |
|
|
|
It does and it is here all around us. |
| |
|
| |
|
| |
|
|
|
Like the thing in mars. |
| |
|
| |
|
| |
|
|
|
I believe so because why would Big Brother is so worried about people finding out about area 51. |
| |
|
| |
|
| |
|
|
|
Yep probably thinking the same thing |
| |
|
| |
|
| |
|
|
|
It exists look at all the Testimonies people give... |
| |
|
| |
|
| |
|
|

Given the infinite nature of the cosmos, probability states that all probabilities will occur an
infinite number of times. Therefore, I believe that, assuming the cosmos is infinite, there
must be infinite life-forms out there...somewhere.
However, just because they exist (in my opinion), this does not mean humanity will ever witness
their existence! The fact that an extra-terrestrial spacecraft has never landed outside the White
House does not lead to the conclusion that we are the only life-form in the cosmos! I mean think
about it; an extra-terrestrial civilisation may be pondering the existence of other life-forms
elsewhere in the universe (i.e. Humankind), but we have never landed on their planet - does this
mean we do not exist? |
| |
|
| |
|
| |
|
|
|
It is more improbable that extra-terrestrial life doesn't exist. As many planets as there are in
our galaxy alone... Much less the countless other galaxies in the universe. |
| |
|
| |
|
| |
|
|
|
I guess they do. |
| |
|
| |
|
| |
|
|
|
Well of course, it's not like life only has the circumstances to grow on Earth. We've seen moons in
our own solar system that are suited to sustain life. It wouldn't be any kind of life we could
possibly imagine. Maybe not even made of up of the kind of cells we're used to, but life none the
less. |
| |
|
| |
|

According to my point of view, I personally believe that there is somewhere the life exists in a
different solar system. In some form of intelligent, there must be some life in some other universe.
Our scientists are working very competently in this matter. There are thousands of different solar
systems in this entire universe. Among these systems, there must be a sign of life. According to
Sophie1’ claim, if there would be a life in this entire universe we would have found it by now.
Although there is no evidence of this fact, but it may be explored any day. That day it would not be
count as the imagination. Among these thousands of solar systems there should be a single radio wave
that would come one day from this system and would make the world full of chaos. |

There are literally thousands of factors involved in whether life can inhabit a planet. For
instance, it has to be a specific (with a range of plus or minus only a few hundred miles) distance
from the sun. It needs a molten iron core to create the magnetic field necessary to deflect harmful
radiation from space. It needs water - which has a unique shape (think Mickey Mouse) necessary to
preserve life even if frozen. It needs a sun that is stable enough to give the planet enough time to
evolve into something even remotely intelligent. It needs hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, and carbon to
make organic material.
There are plenty of other factors. The rate of inhabitable planets in the universe is one in
millions. The universe is finite, both in time and space. Because of how finite it is, we can narrow
it down to figures measured in dozens at best that can even provide the conditions necessary for
life, let alone have actual intelligent life on them.
Now, just for kicks, let's assume there are a few dozen planets with intelligent life, each
scattered evenly throughout the universe. There is no possible way for them to ever interact with
each other. It would take millions of years to travel between them. Even the most technologically
advanced extraterrestrial civilizations cannot defy the laws of physics in order to find us. We are
alone, for all practical purposes, so we may as well focus on improving life on earth, rather than
try to find something out there somewhere to do it for us. |

This is merely a fantasy that was initiated by a few Star Trek films in the 20th century.
There is no foreign life on Mars as proven by numerous unmanned shuttle examinations.
Also, almost all reported UFOs were identified as aircraft etc. And I believe we all know that many
of the ones that were not identified were started by an attention-seeking person.
As well, there is a multitude of ingenious photographers who can easily fake shots of UFOs or
aliens.
Furthermore, Area 51 makes for a great scary story but this location does not hold any new
creatures. This information undoubtedly would have been leaked out again, by an attention-seeking
person.
Lastly, your argument is invalid as all "some", or in your case "probably", statements are invalid.
All in all, there is no proof of alien life forms. |

Aliens do not exist simple as that even if they did why are we so concerned they are not in our
solar system, maybe not in our galaxy if they exist then they could actually be more of a threat we
do not need them |

The odds of there being other life in the Universe is very likely, the odds of it being intelligent
enough to try contacting us, not so likely. You need time for intelligent life to evolve and take
root, intelligence such as ours has only been in existence for about 200,000 years. We've been
finding life on this planet in some of the most inhospitable places, from extremes of hot to
extremes of cold. Life has come up in places with little or no oxygen, no sun, in acidic pools, you
name it life probably can be found in every corner of the earth. So who's to say that life can't
survive in an extreme environment on another planet, or even somewhere else in our own solor-system.
I'm not saying that it can't be intelligent life, I'm just saying the odds of it being intelligent
are not good. |

Little green men? I don't think so. |
| |
|
| |
|
| |
|
|
|
I'm sure that if it did exist we would have found it by now.
We've sent out space probes and satellites for years now and there is still no concrete evidence
that intelligent lifeforms exist anywhere else than on earth. This is a bit frightening as we fall
short of being perfect examples of anything.
Perhaps in many years to come other universes may be discovered which have intelligent life ,
perhaps they do exist and we haven't found each their yet but I doubt it.
I don't believe in visitors from outer space. I think this is media or government propaganda. It is
a form of control by fear.
Being captured by aliens seems to run in cycles and this has all gone quite in recent years. I think
some of these claims are a manifestation of what is wrong in peoples lives and the world at
large.
I hope I'm not captured by aliens now for saying this. |
