There has to be other life out there in the universe. Just look at the odds. If there is one in a 100 billion chance that life exists in other solar systems, and there are 100 billion stars in our own galaxy (most of which have solar system), and there are millions of galaxies in the universe, then there must be millions of other solar systems in the universe that have life. Just do the math.
If we don't kill ourselves off on this planet in the next few hundred years, and we continue our progress in space travel, then I could see us colonizing another habitable planet.

Based on the Urey Miller experiments back in the 50s or 60s, I firmly believe life is very common: basically algae or moss. The difference between prokaryotes and eukaryotes is the difference between a rowboat and an ocean liner. SETI has shown the heavens are silent of communications, and there are no alien artifacts on Earth. Intelligence wise we could very well be alone, or very nearly so in this galaxy. There are lots of other galaxies but their distance is a permanent barrier.

You mean life on other planets? Yeah, probably. Go google "Drake equation" to see a way to estimate how many planets likely have intelligent life of some sort. You might be amazed at what you learn.

Of course there is life out there. Lots and lots of it. And it's pretty nonsensical to think that in order for there to be life, things have to be the way they are here on earth. Life evolved on earth the way it did because of what was given, not beacuse things were perfect. It's called adapting. Who's to say that somewhere they're aren't beings who breathe helium and drink mercury? The possibilites are endless.

Life on other planets? Yes, I do. The Universe is too big for there not to be life out there.

of course! there must be another solar system just like ours in every galaxy, and there must be a planet which shares the same living environment as earth.

You may want to focus on grammar and spelling before you jump right into astrophysics.
