Given the fact that there are so many millions of other planets out there, not just in our solar system but in others as well, I wouldn't be at all surprised to learn that there is life on other planets. Whether or not those that inhabit those planets are "human -like",walk on two legs and have two eyes, ears and a nose and mouth like ours is debatable. But since some of the planets we have studied have life-sustaining elements, I am sure that there is some kind of life out there. I just couldn't begin to guess what he, or she, might look like! Let me know if you find out!

possibly not with all those similarities... people like us, specially. interesting thing, organic life. the way it moves makes for zillions of potential combinations that ensure that no two species are quite the same.
and who knows if organic life is the way to go? inorganic? something totally else? possible.
then there are a hundred other questions that arise... how technologically aware? how advanced? society? culture? art? stuff? junk? timepass like that on yahoo answers? the internet? messaging? online porn? who knows?
it's a big world out there, not necessarily bad. other planets may not quite share the same characteristics, if at all they support life.
don't worry about it too much, asker. enjoy life while it lasts... 123yrs is the maximum any person has ever lived, and most of us pop off at less than half that.

Hi,
I think yes there may be life on other planet but not exactly like us. I think that because universe is a vast space and it is big so it does have stars exactly like our sun and there may be a planet revolving around it and it may have life and remember there are billion,trillion galaxies and billion stars in then and some like our sun so there maybe life on those galaxies stars which are like our sun or even bigger. You never know what is in our universe and it is really big. so we may never reach them or contact them that is why we don't know about other planet holding life.

The possibility that evolution would create beings just like us on a planet millions of miles away, millions of years in the past or future is very remote. Thy are out there but they are not like us.

I believe you mean 'inhabit'. I do believe that there are other forms of life on different planets and moons, as for other forms of beings that are able to communicate with us, I personally do not know.

Just like Terrans, to believe they are the only intelligent life on their tiny piece of rock. If life other than humans can exist in thir backwater planet why would they question life elsewhere. humans are too primite for us to reveal ourselves to them

Yes definitely but I hope their society and their planet isn't as screwed up as ours is.
