Is there planets that have other life forms?

Question

like aliens or 3 headed worm like persons

just curios

Answer 1

Hey Don:

Your question is a good one. I can't tell you the answer to it
just yet because a lot of really smart people are still looking
for suitable planets which might bear further close inspection
in hopes of finding some kind of life forms there. I am not certain at this time if there will be any three headed wormlike people found, However, as funny as this may seem to some, the actual configuration of life forms which might be found in the years ahead is totally up in the air. We might wind up trying to study intelligent fish or really smart birds. There is,
you see, absolutely no reason to assume that life forms have developed elsewhere in the same manner that they developed here on Earth. Just a few tiny little differences might make a world of difference in the way things grew up on this new world. Also, keep in mind that the developmental process might not have followed lock-step along with ours time wise...

So, life forms on the Earth Equivalent Planet might still be in the worm stage, no fooling. Worse (for us science freaks) might be the situation where this Earth Equal Planet had really neat life forms but due to some terrific collision with
a monster object from space, everything was wiped out millions of years ago. Maybe there was an unexplained climate change which killed everything, or some crazy disease... Who knows?

Only time and painstaking observation will tell...

Answer 2

To my best knowledge, we really do not know yet. I hear about all sorts of reports on UFOs and visitors from outer space, but many of these reports have been explained as either being Earth based events (nature or man made) or hoaxes. I do believe there is life elsewhere in the galaxy and universe. So far (again to my best knowledge), the only aliens we see are in science fiction. I really don't know if we have been visited and I suspect, if their technology is advanced enough to travel faster then light, then they probably can cloak their ships and disguise themselves as humans (or use well hidden observation posts, like those seen in Star Trek: TNG). Hope that helps.

Answer 3

We haven't found any yet, but given the size of the universe, anything is possible. Since we are limited to travel at sublight speeds, and the nearest star is over 4 light years away, it would take a long time for us to find any. The only way to speed up the process (pardon the pun) is if we, or another civilization, creates a FTL drive, and heads in the right direction.

Answer 4

Yes, billions and billions of stars, billions of galaxies (read this with a voice like Carl Sagan). Only trouble is the distance. Forget about Star Trek and Battle Star Galactica, you will not exceed the speed of light. If a planet had life in our neighbourhood, and that life became radio spectrum active at the same time as we did, then they would be receiving our signals from the 30's -40's now. And we would see theirs as well in our large array radio scopes. So it boils down to timing. make an assumption that radio capable life rises, flourishes, and dies out (we will you know). The time span could be, say 100 thousand years ( pretty liberal I suspect). All the stars in our small galaxy within 100 thousand light years would hears us by then... if their rise to radio capability happened at the same time. 100 thousand years is only a very small portion of the life span of a galaxy. life could rise and extinguish many times at many places and never overlap.

Answer 5

there MUST be life else where in this universe. It happend here, why cant it happen someplace else? all you need is a planet that is a good distance from a star and some water (like Earth). Making contact with these beings or knowing if they can think complexly like us is a different matter. Or maybe THEIR way of thinking is much more complex than ours.

Answer 6

There certainly must be untold numbers of planets in the universe with other life forms, but so far we've not found any evidence that they really exist.

Answer 7

No doubt there are many planets with life forms on them, what form life takes on other planets may never be known by humans.

Answer 8

They are billions of stars in our galaxy , and there are billions
of galaxies, so yes there's life on other planets. The right wing might disagree. I guess the universe is so big because god got bored.

Answer 9

Gliese 581 c.

Answer 10

Yes, We just don't want to accept that yet. I'm going to go puttz around the cobblestone streets in my Model-T spouting bible passages now.
