So far we've seen no verifiable evidence of other sentient species. That said, I believe with some certainty that somewhere in our galaxy at some past, present, or future time, a sentient species did/does/will exist.

Why haven't we heard from them?

Perhaps they are not technologically advanced to be heard. They may be mastering stone knives right now, or experiencing their own Rennaisance.

Perhaps they are here right now. Any species sufficiently advanced to travel interstellar distances would be able to hide or masquerade with ease. That Boeing 737 that flew by may be a surveillance craft.

Perhaps they are so far away they will never notice us and vice versa.

Perhaps they existed a million years ago and died out.

Perhaps they will exist a million years from now.

It is really impossible to know for sure.

The Drake Equation suggests that there is sentient life out there. The Fermi Paradox casts doubt. Play around with the calculation form at the second link and see what you think.

We are already here and we ARE aliens. It didn't take much to alter us to pass as Human, which is why my species was chosen to study Earth. Over the centuries, your planet was a curious place to visit once or twice and was not considered very interesting . Sure, your wars showed us how undeveloped you are as a species. Your infantile,(in cosmic terms) dependence on god concepts does not bode well for you and neither does your penchant to breed beyond your planet's ability to sustain you. We are now showing an interest in you because it is not often that we get to observe a species commit suicide. You are so close to maturing as a sentient species and it will be a shame to see you kill yourselves. There are just not enough of you becoming rational enough to force the issue. You let the least among you determine your fate, so be it.

NASA and the ecu abode corporation did a mixed venture to easily considered one of Saturns moons, Titan. The Cassini area probe which carried the Hyugens lander. They sent a probe down (Hyugens) to the exterior. What they got here across became as quickly as, forms of amino acids, which from my information, are the development blocks of existence! And the only reason that existence has no longer greater on Titan is pondering the undeniable fact that it quite is too chilly! If there's a risk of a minimum of two factors with existence in our sunlight technique, then in the remainder of the universe? superb to no longer produce different existence. Mars is likewise thought to have a minimum of till now harbour existence. notwithstanding with the magnetics all screwing up, then our surroundings is basically being shaved off by the cosmic rays from the sunlight. additionally, the posibility of greater existence (greater desirable so than us) in our universe is quite in all risk. Our universe is suspected to be around 13 billion years historical. Human civilisation is onl approximately 50 thousand or much less, people are generally older than 200 thousand. evaluate approximately how far weve are available in the final 200 years, then persist with that to the doable BILLIONS of years that diverse existence has had to evolve! Whoa!

I doubt whether hominids developed on other planets, but per Drake's Equation, the probability of life on other planets is pretty high. If there were other "real people" as you say, i'd have to change from an atheist to a theist, since all logic and rationality would be thrown out the window.

Yes,

If nature follows the same rules in other stars, and I don't see why it wouldn't, then chances are that any life form, given similar conditions like us, would evolve into similar beings like us. Animals of the water land and air. With good probability of bi-pedals.

Having said that, the chances of finding each other within our technological life span is really short.

What are the chances of having two fireflies lighting up next to each other on the country side on a warm summer night?

I would hate to think that humans are the only life form that there is in the universe. The universe is so vast and unending that I tend to think that there is life somewhere else. Now, what that life looks like I couldn't guess but I don't necessary believe that they would be more advanced than we are. Who knows, we could be way more advanced than they would be in another million years.

If you believe in the Bible, it says that man was created in the image of God. With this reasoning, other life forms would look like us as well, since God would have made all of us.

Yes and No, Yes There has to be life on other planets, but the common misconception is that they will stand up right or have only two legs, This is parsley do to scifi shows like stare track and other shows of that nature. the fact is that life as we know it is only as we know it, not everything out there is going to be carbon based it might be methane based or even an element that we don't even know about, which in turn means that life out there might be a fish with wings that breaths ammonia. We just don't know But to make the assumption that there is life out there like us is hard to swallow, There is life out there just not like you might think.

I firmly believe there is life on other planets in other solar systems. I cannot imagine there not being any. As to whether or not we will ever encounter any is up for question. I highly doubt it. If we do, I would suspect they would be much further advanced than we are.

As to whether or not they are "people".... who knows....

It's a definite possiblity. By "real people" you must mean humans. There may be a species very similar to humans, but at a more advanced evolutionary stage.

I think that it is naive of us to assume that there is no other form of life out there, why should we be the only organisms in existence, in a universe which is never-ending?
