It is impossible to even fathom how large space is. We have barely explored anything out there. We are not even physically able to reach the closest star (besides our sun). I think that with the endlessness of space, it would be utterly amazing and strange if Earth was the only planet out there with life on it. Therefore, I believe that somewhere out there, there may be planets with other life on it.
As for the creation of space in itself, I don't think anyone can be certain for that. It's hard to even imagine what would have been there before space existed, if there was anything, and it's hard to imagine a beginning or an end for something that seems so endless and large.

actually if u take space and the physical aspects into consideration ,then there is only one universe.but if u take time into consideration then there comes the concept of multiverse, it is not like they are at a distance from one another, all the universe overlap with one another ,hence there are many universes if u condsider time .keep reading below....for more fascination...
Our universe (or OTL) - the universe we see, the universe of rocks and trees and people and galaxies out in space - is just one of an infinite number of universes, existing side by side. Each of these universes is constantly splitting, so there is a universe where Hitler lost the war, and another where he won; a universe where Kennedy died, and another where he lived. And also a world where you brushed your teeth in the morning, and one where you didn't. And so forth, on and on and on. An infinity of worlds. There are multiple universes and they're running right alongside our own. All these multiple universes are referred to as a multiverse.
Reality is much greater than just what we see in our universe. Other universes exist and they sometimes interact with our own universe. It's the nature of the multiverse. Within the multiverse, the universes are constantly splitting, which means that many other universes are very similar to ours. And it is the similar ones that interact.
The universe had begun as a single, very dense pinpoint of matter. Then, eight billion years ago, it exploded outward from that pinpoint - in what was known as the big bang. After the explosion, the universe expanded as a sphere. Except it wasn't an absolutely perfect sphere. Inside the sphere, the universe wasn't absolutely homogeneous - which is why we now have galaxies clumped and clustered irregularly in the universe, instead of being uniformly distributed. The expanding sphere had tiny, tiny imperfections in it. And the imperfections never got ironed out. They're still a part of the universe, at subatomic dimensions.

"Do you think millions and millions of miles away from our unvireses there is other universes?" Well no there can;t be other universes, as that would mean its illiterate to say 'The universe', but there are other galaxies out in space, similar to our milky way.
"Do you think there could be life or mabye other realations to humans on other planets in other universes if there is even any."
I think this is perfectly possible, if humans can live on this planet, they could certainly be life on other planets with a sustainable water source, and an atmosphere suitable.
But while you ask these questions, its kinda a pandora's box, because no one can be sure, as it takes too long to go out to these places to check, hence the reason we dont actually know.

First, our universe is well over millions and millions of miles wide, try billions and billions of, not miles, but light years.
Second, the word universe applies that there is only one, that being the prefix uni.
We may live in a one of many universes called a multiverse.
In which one could not travel to other universes through conventional means. The reason being they would either be in other dimensions, in which we would have to employ some quantum theory of inter dimensional travel, of which we have not yet discovered if such a means even exists outside of theory.
Another theory is their are other universes are completely unattached from our universe. Our universe of time and space eventually stops at a certain point, billions of light years away. If there are other universes, we could never get to them because they have there own time space continuum completely separate from ours.

There is an equation some astronomer guy did that came up with only 10 possibilities for the other known galaxies. There is only one universe, that's why it's called the universe. There needs to be certain conditions like water and the right temp to even have a possibility.

Totaly, I think there are probably millions of universes out there. There is one studdy that scientists think that It was the big bang. A meterot hit a big mass of earth and became all the planets. Aperenly the sun is the middle of the explotion, all the gasses from the big bang is what the sun is burning.
I think all the other univers were created in this way in some shape or form.
You can also find out so much more info on it if you google big bang.

We don't know whether there are any other universes, since we haven't directly observed them.
If there were, you couldn't say that they were a particular distance away from ours. The (for lack of a better word) medium into which our universe is expanding may not have concepts such as length, width, depth.
I have an unscientific hunch that quantum computing will some day tell us something about our own universe that we didn't know already.
Speculation is fun.

In one sense there cannot be another universe if we define 'universe' as being 'everything that exists'. Maybe there are other realms that we can never contact, but then they might as well not exist, and we can't have any rational belief about them. There certainly could be life elsewhere in this universe - it seems that it sprang up very soon after the Earth was formed so abiogenesis on other planets seems likely too.

Millions and Millions of miles and your still in our universe.
Millions and Millions of LIGHTYEARS and your still in our universe.
It's bigger than you think.
But we will never know the answer to that question within our lifetimes. We haven't even reached the edge of our galaxy. And the edge of the universe may have gravitational forces prohibiting our exit.

It would be cosmatic to assume that like the space between atoms, the space between stars, that the universes are equally extraordinarily apart.
There is also a paradox in definition:
"The Universe is everything that physically exists: the entirety of space and time, all forms of matter, energy and momentum, and the physical laws and physical constants that govern them"

I really think so because we cant be the only living things that can talk I mean that would be really weird and I really don't know how space would've been created it could be because at one point the universe was a sea of nothing and something created it i really dont know... I never thought of that before...
