Life in the space, other than the Earth?

Question

I noticed a simillar question was posted 3 days ago, but mine is bit different. I am asking for the possibility of the life in the "whole universe", not just our solar system.

I have very little knowledge on the space study, so I may misuse some words. But I am sure you understand what I try to mean.

As you know, there are many, many galexies out there, which could take some billion light years or more to just get to there. We simply can not travel that far, because our technology has not been developed sophisticated enough.

Based on this fact, I think it is natural to imagine that there must be some lives (not the primitive ones like the becteria, etc.), close to the human. They may not have been evolved good enough just like us right now, but who knows if they are having the middle ages of their own right now.

This is what I think. Do you think, or can you give me a fact that there may be a high leved livings like us out there?

Where do you think they possibly be?

Answer 1

hi.....I'm as you are.......i have little knowledge about that subject also, but in spite of that, it has always interested me.
Have you ever heard about a tibetan monk called Lobsam Rampa??? he wrote several books about many things that we cant understand so simply. if you have a good library, try to get a book called The third eye....in that book he told how pple from another ......galaxy???....came to the earth to try to teach us. He says that some of the machines that those people had, still exist inside a mountain on Himalaya. Why not believe that some other cultures can be in other planets???
You can agree with that or not, but is interesting to read him.
Another book from him.......The silver string........

Answer 2

Where could they possibly be?...That is the question
that everyone is asking. Who knows?

Consider this...
There are 100 billion stars in the Milky Way Galaxy which we (our Sun and the Earth) are a part of. Outside our
galaxy there are at least 100 billion other galaxies.

Now when we look at any of the stars in the sky with the
naked eye, or a telescope of your choosing, what we
see is the stars, like our Sun. We do not see the planets
possibly orbiting those stars because those planets are not burning and producing visable light which we can see from a long way off. So, how many possible planets like the Earth and Mars are there in the heavens? A huge number must be out there, but the number is beyond calculation and unverifiable...what would you say to 9 times 100 billion times 100 billion? Why not 6 times 100 billion times 100 billion? Who is to say one number is right and another is wrong? What proof do they have?

No, there are no facts that high level life exists out there, but with the possible places for them to exist so vast in number, the possibility becomes much more real. That is about the best anyone can do. I think I am fairly correct in this statement.

Answer 3

The interesting thing is that we cannot SEE the whole universe. We can see things that give off light and that aren't more than 14 billion light-years or so away. But the universe is bigger than that. Perhaps MUCH bigger.

From the parts we can see, there seems to be lots of places one could put life, if one wanted. And about the parts we can't see we can really say almost nothing.

So is it POSSIBLE that there's other life out there? Unless you ascribe to a religious framework which makes the genesis of life a completely unique event, then by definition it must be possible. WE are here, so the event has a probability greater than zero, and therefore the probablility of another, or even many occurrances is also non-zero.

Is it PROBABLE? Nobody can really say. All we can say is that we don't seem to have seen it yet. Will we see it tomorrow? Wait and see!

Answer 4

I think it's egotistical to believe that we are the only life in the universe that exists. That's a completely ridiculous idea.

Whether you believe creation (why would any creator design so much space and have life only in one insignificant spot?) or evolution (even accidentally, statistics show that there should be MILLIONS of civilizations in the universe) the conclusion is the same: we can't possibly be alone.

Answer 5

God is the architek of the universe. In the universe there is billions of small islands of galaxies. In each galaxy there is an earth and each earth was created by the sons of God. Christ created this one and in others there are different types of Saviours who does the same thing. That is why we are here, to Follow Christ's ways and be like unto him and our Heavenly Father, so that we may have a chance of creation, to be God Sons of God. For the survival of Mankind. But only for those who are righteous enough to gain such glory. Mosess and others have already earned that right.

Answer 6

Carl Sagan used to like to bypass by using this rationalization of ways possibly it became into and the respond became into fantastically lots that suitable at this prompt of time the percentages of there being yet another civilization with our point of intelligence or greater became into vanishingly small. however the percentages that this form of civilization ever existed or will exist sooner or later are certainly fantastically extreme. and of direction the reason he posited that we've been unique at that ingredient (he's lifeless) is that we've been for a while perilously on the brink of wiping out human existence in the worldwide - something that could desire to ensue to any sentient race on the different planet that stepped forward like us. to this ingredient, there is not any evidence that there is different existence obtainable right this moment (or, what quantities to "right this moment" in terms of the radio waves that impinge on earth).

Answer 7

Yes there is the possibility that the proper chemical reactions have taken place to produce the needed organic materials that would result in multicell life. What I would be most interested in is the cell structure of these aliens. I do doubt, however, that they would develope in similar ways to us, considering how different the geography must be.

Answer 8

perhaps extraterrestrial life consists of little creatures that resemble ferrets who live in tunnels inside rings of giant annelid worms which travel through the background microwave energy in outer space the way that earthworms travel through dirt.

Answer 9

I think it's possible ,we can't be the only aliens in the universe..there's plenty room out there for others..

Answer 10

Uranus.
