Who says it didn't?
The problem about the "known" universe is that it's not so "known" as we would like. Our best telescopes are only scratching at the surface. And the things we see now are thousands, millions, or even billions of years old.

Why do you think there is no life anywhere else? The known universe is very small, in comparison to what is out there that is still unknown to us, and they have found evidence that there was once water and microbes on Mars, sounds like life on another planet to me..... I don't believe that life on other planets necessarily means more advanced life though, in some places there will be found more advanced species, in others less....

How do you know it didn't? We have no idea what other planets were really like over the ages or what they're gearing up for in the future. Science can only tell us so much and our knowledge and technology are limited. We don't even know the extent of the universe yet.

It is vain to think we are alone in the Universe. We don't know that life didn't develop in other universes. We're just a babe in the woods when it comes to exploring space. There are countless accounts of encounters with alien life forms. One shouldn't ignore that the unexplainable is occurring now in this day and age, just as it did in Biblical days.

Conditions for life to exist must be met. The fact that we have not found life yet on another planet does not mean life will never be found out there.

One could argue, if you wish to bring god into it, if god created the universe, why did me make so many planets and only populate one - what are the others for?
Decoration and navigational purposes?
How do you know there is not life on any other planets? What makes you so sure....

Living conditions. For how WE are structured:
Mercury has unstable climates, completely uninhabitable.
Venus, poisonous gases
Jupiter, too high gravity
Saturn Uranus, Neptune and Pluto are too cold.
And that's as far as our solar system goes. After that, we have no idea what's out there. There have been many planets that have been said could possibly have life on them, but we have no clue as to if they do.

I can imagine it has, we just havent found it, we do not even know about our close planets such as Mars, hence the expensive exploration the US is undertaking, how on earth can you say that there is no life in the universe. It is huge.

Statistically, it's impossible for the rest of the universe to be devoid of life. Too many trillions of planets.

Exactly what the first guy said.
You're assuming it didn't. We don't know that yet. We've only just begun to investigate other planets.
There might even have been primitive life on Mars at some point, even if it died before having the chance to evolve into multicellular organisms.
