Absolutely. The probability is extremely high that there is life SOMEWHERE else in the universe. That's just because there are probably over 10000 billion stars out there.
But there's even a fairly good chance that there is microbial life elsewhere in our solar system. Mars, Europa, Enceladus, and perhaps even Titan may harbour some forms of primitive life.
If you mean: intelligent life. There's nowhere else in our solar system for that, but the odd are good that there is intelligence elsewhere in the universe. It's just unlikley that we'll ever be able to make direct contact with it (like meeting), because distances are so great.

Yes i do. I believe that God created mankind in his image to live on Earth and prosper. As far as other "things"(some people
call them aliens) in the universe, I don't really think there is. But you have to stop and think that the universe is very big and it
would be very unusal for us to be the only planet that has life. There could be other planets that have microrganism life on it.
If you stop and think about how scienctist say life started on earth it really doesn't add up. They are trying to prove that an asteroid hit earth and left a living cell here(which lighting help to start the living process)-You can't get living things from non-living things-asteroids are non living-so it is hard to believe that life is elsewhere because how did it span in the first place.

I definitely believe their is life beyond earth...The universe is infinitive..Why would the planet earth be the only planet to develop life..Being that the universe is so mass, even the closest planet is probably out of our reach..Or maybe the government already knows their is life beyond but doesn't want to tell us..

I can't believe that in this entire universe there is not intelligent life somewhere else other than this little insignificant third rock from the sun. If an evolutionary "big bang" process, or God, or Nature created this vast space, why would (s)he choose only give life to this planet we call Earth?

According to the Drake Equation
N = R* x fp x Ne x Fl x Fi x Fc X L
N is the number of civilizations in our galaxy with which we might expect to be able to communicate at any given time
and
R* is the rate of star formation in our galaxy
fp is the fraction of those stars that have planets
ne is average number of planets that can potentially support life per star that has planets
fl is the fraction of the above that actually go on to develop life
fi is the fraction of the above that actually go on to develop intelligent life
fc is the fraction of the above that are willing and able to communicate
L is the expected lifetime of such a civilization
Add a number to this Equation and it would give you the amount of possible life in the universe.

Yes I do, in fact I believe there is a parallel world like ours somewhere out there. The vast universe have so many secrets and mysteries yet to be unfold by mankind. Perhaps, in the future if man finally succeeded bridging the enormous distance between our world and other heavenly bodies then we might get the chance to meet other beings not necessarily like us.

The universe is too vast for there not to be. (400 billion stars in the Milky Way alone) Billions of galaxies, amazing grandeur. The chances that humans are alone are almost zero. I would assume the universe is utterly amazing in its diversity.

Yes i believe that there is life beyond earth.If right conditions are met then there is every chance that life,as we know it,may exist.There are so many stars and there may be so many planets.So there is a strong probability that life may exist,either as we know it OR as we dont know it.
