      There’s probably no way to know for sure, but since there are hundreds of billions of stars in a galaxy, most with planets, and hundreds of billions of galaxies in the universe, I would say that there’s probably a few aliens out there!

      I always thought that being the only planet with forms of life on it would be really too weird and pretentious to be true!
      Maybe there is no human-like form of life lying around, but considering the crazy conditions in which living things insists of popping out (deepest ocean, arsenic-rich environments and the like) I really think that there are living things in other solar systems.
      I don’t think we will get to reach them any time soon, but most likely we are not alone!

      I agree that probabilistically, it should exist other life forms in the Universe, which may resemble with anything we could imagine, or it might be something completely different and relying on different chemical elements to survive!

      But (as far as the general public concerns) we have not made any contact with them yet 🙂
