It is inconceivable to me that life does not exist elsewhere. Much rarer would be intelligent life - it took us hundreds of millions of years of dinosaurs before intelligent life evolved on this planet. Yet, given the vastness of the universe, there's no question that it abounds with intelligent life that could predate us by billions of years. But if so, why have we found no evidence of it in the form of radio waves, etc.? Has intelligent life visited us? I doubt it. The distances are simply too great. It makes no sense that even if an alien civilization was able to get here, that it wouldn't interact with us in some way. Some say they have been abducted but never is there verifiable proof and where that's lacking, the claims are to be rejected. That includes supposed Loch Ness monsters and susquatch, ghosts and demons, devils and gods, and, space aliens. "in the form of radio waves, etc" heck I have no idea. Look what humans have invented just looking back from 150 years ago till now. Just sum it up and that makes a huge list. Weaponry alone and order a Pizza from your chair Or even, what was the USA or Canada, 500 years ago? (you would have spoken Dutch 400 years ago if the Brits and,.. the Yankee's were not created ) And "form of radio waves", well, what do they know about us and what we use. Or what are we going to use in the next 200 years. Lets make it more crazy...... what if other Aliens already found other Aliens and yeah so, we are fu**ed! They only have to blow up our sun.

Probably 80% of the Stars having at least 2 planets around each star. That number of places in the universe staggers the mind to a number that does not exist to human beings. To say we are the only life forms in a universe with a Quadrillion chances to have other life forms would be arrogant and impossible. Now to say those life forms are just like us, or can travel to other places to visit us? That's another story. Space is a very, very Huge and Hostile place. Will we explore? You may have to ask the Lawyers if they will let us. The argument is there is too much of a chance of Cosmic Rays to strike the craft and destroy the Astronauts health. Same chance as a major car crash while driving though. Every scenario and thing we could imagine exists and there are things we will never be able to fully understand in this universe. So Yes, Oh yes there is life out there... @Helio told me about this thread on discord so i had to add my comments... @Spartacus almost finished the heuristic proof of aliens he just had to add in the assumption of .0000001% or some small percent chance for life on a given planet you'd end up with 10^12 * 10^11 *.8 * 2 * 10^-9 = 1.6x10^14 planets with life on them in the universe. Lets also remember that the universe is only like 13.8 billion years old so maybe that number is taking into account future and past dead planets, which even still that implies there should still currently be something somewhere in the cosmos that is not human. That all being said see the other thread about the size of the universe. There's no chance we have or will ever meet those creatures. We, the human race, are all in a small planet sized jail that we cannot leave except to go to our one natural satellite and then return home shortly after. Awards

I once had a sighting, between 1991 and 1993. Unfortunately, I can not remember exactly when it was. But I know it was summer. We were 3-4 guys waiting for a friend during the night, he had to go to work at 4 o'clock and we wanted to scare him. Everyone had hidden in good positions to scare him first. It was starry that night, I looked in the sky. There I saw a point of light that seemed to move (it was the size of a star and had the same color) I thought it was a star or an airplane, the distance would at least have fit. Then it stopped moving, suddenly stood. Before I understood it, it did three or four short zigzag movements (extremely fast-if I should describe it, faster than a bullet) and was gone. I do not know what it was, but it certainly was not a star, plane, or any satellite parts. Make your own thoughts. So far I had told only a handful of people. Spartacus, RobMc and Ruggerxi 2 1 Awards

We may have gotten this far before. I must dissagree on the notion you said we may never be able to meet other creatures. If mankind makes it another 100 years, spaceflight by that time (if the Oligarchs permit it) will be able to reach speeds fast enough to at least explore interstellar space within our own Galaxy. Gold, Silver and Platinum maybe enough reason for the powers that be to at least continue the space program for exploring the very close asteroid belt with is a giant treasure for precious metals. Intersteller travel is much much farther making Proxima Centauri the closest Planet system we know of at 4.3 light years away. The Questions are two. Will we make it another 100 years without destruction of the present civilization? Will the powers of the world allow interstellar travel? RobMc 1 Awards
