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 enough 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 just 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.

I definately think aliens exist.I mean imagine this.Do you have any idea how big our planet is and how far an astronemor can see using the best telescope?He may just be able to see a few of the planets in our galaxie.There are many galaxies in this universe.So there definately should be life in some other planet in maybe another galaxie,don't you think?whether they are nasty or freindly,intelligent or dumb,we won't be able to find out.Most probably,like all the humans in earth,they will probably have all the different types of personalities.

ASOLUTELY! The odds of them not existing is extremely low! Think of how many stars there are! Certainly more than 2 stars have a planet orbiting them that contains life! Now, whether that life is "human" or not may indeed be a different story! I would guess that there are other planets that have what we would call dinosaurs and microbes. But it could very well be that there are other human-like beings on another world! But as of right now; we have no way of knowing for sure!

Yes, look at Micheal Jackson. Don't even get me started on the friendly/nastiness factor of that guy.

i havent seen any, but its very likely that theres other life out there, if you look up at the sky at night you see alot of stars some are other glaxys and to think almost all of those stars and galaxys have theyre own planets just like the sun has planets

think about this
if you take a hand full of sand, you will have more sand particles than stars you can see at night.
But the actually number of stars in the universe are more than all the sand particles in all the beaches of the world.
so it is kind of unprobably that we are the only ones here
nasty or firends, i think both

I believe that intelligent Aliens proliferate throughout the universe.
We will never meet them,but if we did and they were anything like us they would kill us if they could when it suited them.
