I'M REALLY SCARED ABOUT THAT
( Have you seen the movies "Predator", "Alien", "Independence Day", etc ?...)

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 don't believe in extraterrestrial.
Aliens are not real. At least, people who claim that they have seen aliens never have any good proof to back up their claims. You should never believe something unless it can be proven, and a lot of times people who say that they saw a UFO or an alien are either trying to get attention, or saw or experienced something that they don't understand.
Also, UFO stands for Unidentified Flying Object. So, if I had never seen a football, and one came sailing through the sky toward me, I could call it a UFO. But I would not claim that it came from outer space. People do see UFOs (and some are seen from airplanes, like you asked) but they are often just an airplane, or a balloon, or something else that is natural or man-made. No UFOs that I have heard of have been seen by astronauts in space.
We cannot travel to different solar systems, and, though many people seem to believe that UFOs are spaceships visiting from other planets, most astronomers believe that the chances of a visit from an alien are slim to none.

I believe in angels who don't live on this planet.
They are different from us. They don't have flesh and blood bodies and can take on other human bodys. So they can't be killed or harmed by humans. Job 1: tells about Satan he is an invisible spirit person who roams the earth causing all kinds of problems and even says he rules the governements.
The unseen ruler behind all these vicious governments.
He is ten times more dangerous than any alien the movies can dream up. The worst part is he is real.
Rev.12:15 tells about a war in heaven, where micheal and his angels battled with Satan and his angels and threw them out of heaven and down to this earth. I mean just where is heaven?

I think with all the millions upon billions of stars in our universe, the probability of intelligent beings existing elsewhere is greater than not. But don't be scared, Hollywood has thought up those movies. They are not facts. Why would an alien race want to spend the enormous resources to come visit earth?

The Universe is just to big for Earth to be the only planet with life on it. The intelligent life out there is not going to be like the way it is depicted in the movies. They could be below our level of technology, at our level of technology, or beyond our level of technology. If they are beyond our level of technology, I do not think they would try to take over Earth.

There are billions of galaxies out there, each with their own suns and planets. I find it hard to believe that we're the ONLY planet in the ENTIRE universe with life (including INTELLIGENT life) on it. I do NOT believe, though, that they're green bug-eyed creatures that come here in space ships. They're probably on their own planet wondering if there's life on other planets, just like us.
