Will we discover life forms on another planet in our life time?

Question

With the computer age upon us. It just seems to me that soon another planet will be found that will be able to sustain life as we know it. I wonder when? What will it look like? What kind of life will be on it? How would a human being eventually get their?
Just wondering...

Answer 1

Yes, we will discover other planets that also sustain life, and we will do so within our lifetime. I do not mean that we will physically go to these planets but we will discover this by placing much more powerful telescopes in orbit around Earth. There is a definite signature that we will be looking for and that will be the presence of Oxygen in another planet's atmosphere. If a planet does not have any oxygen in its atmosphere then it would not be able to support life. There was a time billions of years ago on Earth when there was no oxygen in the atmosphere and at that time there was no life on Earth. We may not discover other intelligent life on other planet's during our lifetime but i am sure that we will discover other planets that are supporting at least plant life if not primordial single cell life as well.

Answer 2

Bob Berman wrote an exceedingly strong article about this contained in the present Astronomy mag. in all probability, we would nicely be able to hit upon 'existence' (of a few kind) on an extra-image voltaic planet interior the subsequent decade or so. this can create a right away, yet particularly short, surge of interest - until eventually human beings hear scientist tell them for the twentieth - fiftieth time that we does no longer be able to visit that planet 87 mild years away - even at our very brilliant technologies, we will be searching at 10s of thousands of years... no longer 3 or 4. At which element the 'pschics' and different looney-toons will be popping out with ''we knew this each and every of the time - the extraterrestrial beings were conversing with us telepathically - we may be able to astral-commute to the 'different-Earth' (or in spite of stupid call is given the numeric designation that the astronomy community supplies the nonetheless-unknown planet)'' Sigh...

Answer 3

This is the age of science and day by day, it reaching up one stairs. Nothing could be sad. Many videos clips are seen on discovery channel about the space craft of extra terestrial flying on sky of earth but scientists proved it incorrect. But, i am supposed, science can make it possible. Scientist trying to send radio waves signals to the outer space to get any sign of extra terestrial life and also they using powerful telescopes and binoculars to find out sign of extra terestrial. But, had not be succeeded. extraterestrial may be a as small as ant or as big as dinosaurs if it really exist. No body have answer of your question. It may be yes and also no.

Answer 4

its a very high possibility. seeing the things we have gathered on mars, and how close we are getting to hitting the jackpot everyday , makes me think that yes, we may find another planet that supports life just like ours. it may look alot like our planet or maybe even totally different.

Answer 5

well biblically speakin, God created the universe but specifically choose earth for man. so life will neva be found on other planets xcept this one. no matter who goes where, how, when, NEVA. IF there was other adams and eve in mars or jupiter then maybe
