Do you believe there are other living things outside of this earth??

Personally, I believe we do have extra terrestrials or other living things outside of the earth, and I believe the government knows something about it. I mean, humans have only been 248,655 miles outside of the earth's atmosphere. There is still so much more space to be discovered! There's no way we are the only living things out of all 100-200 billion galaxies in space. No way.

There are over 200 billion solar systems in our galaxy alone, on top of that, there are 100 billion galaxies in the observable universe. Keep in mind, only in the OBSERVABLE universe, therefore that would average a 160,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 or one hundred sixty sextillion amount of planets in the observable universe.

Of course there are. We have people in outer space as we speak.

I believe that life arrived here from outside the Earth in the first place. Many scientists are finally coming around to the panspermia idea after years of failed abiogenesis experiments. For example:-

All humans are 'aliens from outer space', scientist claims

UK Scientists: Aliens May Have Sent Space Seeds To Create Life On Earth

Unfortunately, the headlines are almost always sensationalised by the media, but the basic theory is that the seeds for life exist in abundance throughout space, and when they find the right conditions they grow and thrive.

Research into blood protein derivations pretty much discount that outright. Although it is fully possible that life could have been jump started in this way, it still begs the question as to how life started out there.

Provide pictures of the seeds.

Obviously, there are humans now outside in the space station. That’s outside this earth!

Although no concrete evidence has yet come to light, I know for a fact that other conscious beings inhabit the universe.

Moderate numbers punched into the fermi equation show there are hundreds of thousands of places where life exists, but the real question is ,'are there any intelligent societies out there, living in the same time as us, that aren't so far away we could actually hope to communicate?' I believe the answer is yes, give us another 50 years to figure out sub space quantum telecommunications. That means don't explode the earth in ww3, so there's maybe like a 50/50 chance we survive based on the leaders of today!!

Some people try to reason that due to the enormity of the cosmos there must be life beyond earth.

This of course is pure speculation based on the dreams of romanticists with school boy mentalities, nothing more, nothing less.

DESPITE PROBES AND OBSERVATIONS USING THE MOST POWERFUL RADIO TELESCOPES AVAILABLE THERE IS NO EVIDENCE ''WHATSOEVER'' THAT LIFE EXISTS OUTSIDE OUR OWN PLAN.

Bullshit. To believe that Earth is the only place special enough for life to have emerged is even crazier than believing the Earth is the centre of the universe. Especially since the facts show fairly clearly that the same process happened to some extent on Mars and possibly Titan.

So show us the aliens, seeing we can see billions of years into the past across the vastness of deep space. I'll wait.

Hello Coco:

There's this thing called the speed of light. Radio waves don't travel faster than that. Therefore, our radio waves haven't had TIME to reach the edges of our own galaxy, and radio waves from ALIEN civilizations haven't had time to reach us either..

Church is NOT a good place to learn your science..

We don't care about waves. I just want to see some ships, lights, visual signals, anything. Come on Con. Give up the goodies. Show us the three headed aliens, the Star Trek Enterprise, the advanced city lights. I'll wait.
