is it possible that life exists on the moon, yet humans are unable to see, smell or detect such a lifeform?

Is there life on the moon that we are simply unable to detect? Maybe. Not likely though, when we think of the parameters to which life seems to be constrained. It would be a very different life form from any we have encountered.\n\nThen again, this is like asking "How do we know that there aren't invisible people walking around us all the time? They might just be very quiet." There's just no really good reason to think so.

there hasn't been any found yet.... but... the possibility of life on other planets is very  high....  :)

Of course I think life exists!  Infact, I beleive there is life in the solar system.  How do we know if there isnt life floating in the clouds of a gas giant, or icy crystal like things on pluito?  We havent searched hard enough for these yet!  Duh!\n\nLife outside of the solar system might be a little hard, considering that there are only "hold jupiturs," and "frozen earths."  Both are to hot or cold to support life, and they are massive and have insane gravity.  However certain single celled organisms, say bacteria or such, might reside on the planet.  I always thought that might be.\n\nIn addition, Europa, a moon of Jupitur, has ice flows on it that scientists think liquid water might reside under!  It might be interesting to see what could live there.  From the means of life there, I came up with a skating green creature who could move around on the ice, absorb the moisutre of the water, and undergo photosynthesis to obtain energy.  \n\nEnjoy!\n\nNote: I do beleive in aliens, but dont beleive in UFOs.  Considering how many hot jupiturs there are, I dont think we will even see any life as smart as we were as cavemen until alot later in time...

THIS IS THE CRAZY ANSWER>>>>>>>>\n\nyes, there are vehicles that are not identifed.\n\nIf you mean other life forms then yes and no. It depends on what you mean by lifeform....\n\nThere is lifeforms on Mars and Venus and Earth is constantly vistited....\n\nHeres the crazy part....That these lives exist or rather are made up of a diffrent vibration than the physical plane... in other words its like Earth life is like an ice cube and Mars and Venus Life is like the Gas form of water.\n\nUFO exist and are made of thought energy...they are seen only when they want to be seen. They are constsantly visting earth helping allievate the amount of radiation we emmit...\n\nThey can not interfer with HUman free will which is why they do not present themselves...

It is more likely than not that there are many planets in the universe with life and many of those may have "intelligent" life.\n\nWe have just only obtained the ability to detect planets in other solar systems and we can only detect very large ones. We do not have the ability to detect Earth like planets.\n\nWithin our own solar system, we have yet to find undisputable evidence of life on any of the planets we have activley searched for it. Many scientists are optimistic about finding microbial life forms within our solar system though. There are still pleanty of places on Mars, for example, that we simply haven't looked, and there are many moons in our solar system with the potential for supporting microbial, and even more complex life forms. Jupiter's moon Europa is a good candidate because it is covered by a sheet of ice and thought to have liquid water oceans underneath. Due to Jupiter's gravity constantly tugging on the planet, it is likely geologically active and thermal vents may exist in it's under ice oceans. Here on Earth, underwater thermal vents are teeming with life, even though no sun light reaches them.

Probably,\n\nI don't know if they are walking talking aliens, but I wouldn't be surprised to find out there are other forms of life that didn't start in our solar system.\n\nAfter all, there are billions and billions of solar systems. Are we so self-absorbed /self-involved that we think this could only happen to us.

Yes I did.\n We have built this multi billion dollar rocket so we can crash it into the moon.\n And,yes, they are looking for the presence of water or at least evidence that water was once present.\n A big idea now in the science world,by the belief that all life here started in the seas, that if there is water there might be life. Or if there WAS water there might have been life at one time.\n This is just another way for the government to waste tax dollars. Plus it gives these scientist a paycheck. They have run out of theories on how the dinosaurs may have looked. And who built Stonehinge. So this water/life study has opened up a whole new avenue for them to collect research grants.\n But between you and me...It really is to search for underground alian spaceports that may be on/in the moon.

There could possibly be. Isn't it a little ridiculous to think that in all the galaxies that we are the only humanoid lifeforms? whether or not you believe in God!

I have heard that to. Your absolutely right. Are moon is the only one in the solar system that rotates in such a way that we can Never see the far side. There really could be any thing on the far side of the moon. Don't believe me. Look it up! We can only see one side of are moon. Its the only moon like that that we know of. Again, look it up.\n\n There are reports of HAM radio operators picking up conversations between astronauts and NASA saying things like "There just sitting there on the other side of the Crater looking at us, there huge". No kidding. And not only did Armstrong say "what the..." he also said " we have company, there here with us". He was then ordered to switch to a secure channel.\n\n Don't you wonder why the moon landing's just up and stopped? The Russian's too. Now after all this time were going back. Why?\n\n Some scientists now say the moon may be hallow and that it was "put" there about 15000 years ago. For instance when the Apollo astronauts dropped cargo containers onto the service of the moon, those little cargo containers set off lunar quakes that lasted for hours.\n\n Have we been warned off in some way to not look to closely at the moon? Is there some kind of Alain base on the far side of the moon? I don't know, but if you look into this on the net you well find some pretty interesting stuff.\n\n usarocketman- No one on earth can see the far side of the moon. NASA has taken pictures from space. There NASA pictures, they can be altered. My point is no normal person can see the far side of the moon from earth, like with a telascope or the naked eye. So we can not prove or disprove the NASA photos for are self's.

There is a possibility of other living matter existing other than the humans.There are billions of stars and there may be many more earth's around them.When the conditions of existance of life prevails ,like for earth -water,atmosphere,essential gases and many more exist.Ofcouse there may be different conditions in other galaxies but there is a possibility that life exists.Them being friendly or visious depends upon the way we try to communicate with them.If the way we communicate is wrong they may prove to be more visious than friendly.

No, it is soooooooo far out of our atmosphere not a chance.  Even with a really big Microscope no.  For real?  By now that thing is gone been like 40 some years since it was put in, no cement on the moon, can't hold up.

All the astronauts who were on the Moon commented that lunar rocks material smelled like burnt gunpowder, but by the time the samples were examined on Earth, that smell was no longer detectable. Nobody knows why. Other than that I don't know of any changes.

These are good questions, and about the only way to answer them is by example.\n\nImagine you live in Australia and someone in England tosses a bottle with a message into the ocean.  Now -- assume that bottle never gets washed up anywhere or caught in seaweed, but just keeps on floating around and around, what are the chances of you finding that bottle if you go down to the beach and watch for it EVERY DAY.\n\nNow multiply that by a billion and you have a general idea of how big space is and how unlikely we'll detect radio signals from intelligent extraterrestrial life.  But it's worth listening anyway.\n\nAnother assumption that you didn't consider -- Humans have only been using "radio" waves for a little over 100 years.  SETI's assumption is that we're either going to catch an alien civilization at the time when they are using radio to communicate, or that aliens broadcast in radio in a conscious attempt to communicate with other lifeforms.  That's a pretty big "if".

I'm going to make the (probably correct) assumption that you're talking about the US manned missions to the moon. We have gone to the moon and people who think we haven't are just very paranoid and naive. People who attempt to convince others that we didn't rely on people's ignorance and mistrust of the US and it's government. What they mainly do is present a lot of situations that you and I can readily test here on Earth that is "proof" that we didn't go to the moon. The problem is that things don't exactly work the same way in a low-gravity, zero-atmosphere, moon. The usual arguments and their debunkings can be found at a lot of sites but i particularly like this one:\n\nhttp://www.badastronomy.com\n\nOne of my personal favorite reasons why it probably wasn't a hoax was becaues of the Soviet Union. The Soviets had satellites, lots of satellites. They also had lots of observatories and lots of spys in the US government. If it was a hoax, they would have easily caught us and had proof. The spacecraft would have had to orbit earth while the "hoax" played out and the Soviets would have easily caught it. \n\nBut theres no convincing some people.

Several people have written books trying to disprove our landing on the moon.  I have not actually researched this, but for one thing, supposedly there is no dust on the moon like the ton of dust our astraunats walked through that day.  The photos have been disputed as made up and I believe our corupt government is capable of pulling this off.....)(

Actually I believe they did... evidence exists and all the proof people give to say otherwise can easily be explained... space missions still go one today and people do still land on the moon. It's not impossible! We should be glad that people are making the effort to study the things around us - though perhaps my only qualm is that the money spent could be better used for something else... like helping the poor

There are stars in some, but not all of the photos.\nStrong lighting causes the stars to get underexposed, and that is why you can't see them.\n\nIf you have any reason to doubt our landing on the moon ask the Russians (Who had their own lunar program) if they believe it.  They had many spies, and would have benefited greatly if the moon landing was in fact a hoax.
