SPACE ALIENS!!!

[Hitman]

Nonsense, with all due respect. Life elsewhere (i.e. zillions of light years away) may not require earthly conditions at all. Dont project limited scientific knowledge on all of the (vastly unknown) universe.

But of course you are right What I meant is that we are SURE that under OUR earthly conditions the universe "can" produce life, so it si logic to think that other planets with same conditions "could" also have the same style of life as ours. Of course that does not exclude -quite the opposite- a differently structured life.

Sorry you could very well be very wrong again, Hitman. How can anyone know or even talk 'odds' ? We have no idea of the potential events in the entire universe.

I personally think it would be rather disappointing if the universe outside our solar system would consist of nothing more than rocks, space and gasses (and some) and no other life forms (in there or wherever), including intelligent life forms, but then again: maybe it's just that. Dunno.

Again
