As stated. There are at least 100 billion stars in each galaxy and so far 125 billion galaxies have been detected. This means millions if not billions of planets. It would be rather naive and arrogant to think that we are the only intelligent beings in the universe. What do you think?

I thought there were closer to 300 billion stars per galaxy...

I'd like to think we are 'not' alone.

I mean, such a huge universe we live in, it'd be a waste if we were actually alone!

I just wish 'others' would show themselves.

I remember this one episode of Stargate: SG-1 where Daniel tells Jonas: "if you think your problems here are big, wait till you step thru the stargate, the problems out there will make the problems here seem insignificant"

Now having said that, if we could go out and explore the universe, meet other races and such, maybe life on little ol' earth could get better ;)

So... ET, show yourself plz! haha.

I was going to say that I do believe that somewhere there must be some other kind of life, though that I doubt they've visited us and anally probed rural inhabitants - but I must say that spiderz has a good argument. :p

I believe that it's very likely that other "inteligent" extraterrestrial life exists, but that it's rather unlikely that they or us will ever come into contact.

There is life on other planets, and prob one where we have people the same as us on a different planet.

It's Impossible to have one planet in all the universe to have life and none others out of the billions there are has none. They are out there, will we ever get to meet them.... I highly doubt it

I'm sure that in maybe a few 100 years time that we will be capable on inter-planetary travel. That would be awesome.

The question should be :

Do extra-terrestrials believe in the existence of us?
:D

No i dont believe there are et's out there no matter how big space is.
I know for a fact that if we were not alone there would of been some form of evidence through the age of man.

I think there is a very strong posibility.

mmmm ok....
If their technology evolved at the same speed as ours then the would also only be able to explore a small bit of a backyard in the universe.....

Lol we cant even travel to the nearest star yet (the sun)....rofl Light year as in how far light travels in a year......+- 300000 km/second iow, A light-year or light year (symbol: ly) is a unit of measurement of length, equal to just under ten trillion kilometres.....

The current, observable universe has been determined to have a width of 156 billion light years, with an error of less than 1%, by the latest deep-space telescope WMAP. At first, it might seem impossible that scientists are so sure of this astronomical measurement, but this figure has been narrowed by years of research and determined by several paths of inquiry. Also, the size of the universe is intimately dependent on its shape, age, acceleration, and total mass, so we are very confident in this figure.

So we have seen not even a distance of 8 light min away.

lol ffs man so we have explored less then 0.000 000 0001 %
I think there is a slight chance that we might not be alone :D

It would be strange if we're the only intelligent beings in the entire universe... what a waste that would be, I believe there should be some E.T's out there.
