Is there life on other planets??? : )  I've seen UFO'S before!!!!?

I have never seen UFOs or aliens, but I think it was a sufi man who observed the following...he said: If you build a 7-story building, it does not make sense to occupy the ground floor and leave the rest unoccupied. He was referring to all the zillions of stars and planets in space that God created...meaning it does not make sense thag God would create all that and have life on earth alone. Having said that, I can not say with certainty that there IS life on other planets, but I can not say with certainty that there is No life on other planets either...but I have to admit; that sufi man's remark makes sense...don't you think? :)

We lack the proof, only the high probability that something exists in one of the trillion or so systems out there.  Have you noticed that with all the camcorders out there in the past 5-10 years that there's been a lack of UFO sightings...just my observation.

Its nice to see one of many brave souls questioning the possibility of extra-terrestrial INTELLIGENT life forms. If your interested, Ive just completed a answer segment to a question posed recently and is still open... Question:: 'the latest UFO sighting observed ?'...this is a quite lengthy answer with sources provided for your further investigation if you wish! I hope it stimulates the remaining 90% of our Human Brain that is still 'A sleeping Giant'(only 10% of our brain capacity is used at GENIUS level!)

Absolutely.  There's evidence that planets with attributes similar to Earth exist.  In fact, scientists recently sighted a planet in a star system close to us that seems very similar to Earth.  Now UFO's are a bit more dubious, but then humanity has only been around for 20.000 years (maybe 50,000, depending on who you believe), while the universe has been around for at least nine billion years, and maybe up to seventeen billion (though I think that's probably stretching it a bit).  I would say there's been more than ample time for more advanced lifeforms to appear in that timeframe.

UFO is unidentified flying object.  If there arent any, or there isnt in a broader perspective "life out there" then it would be an awful waste of a lot of space.

I DONT THINK THAT WE R  ALONE . WE HAVE SEEN A FEW SIGNS OF XTRA TERRESTRIAL LIFE AND IT  IS POSSIBLE THAT THERE ARE OTHER LIVING ORGANISMS INHABITED PLANETS

I think we would be very naive to believe we are the only life form in the universe.As vast and diverse as it is,I believe there has to be a reason for the formation of these planets to sustain life.That said,who knows when the life was present on these planets?And who knows what life forms are out there as we speak?Perhaps Mars and Pluto had life trillions of years ago but there are no remnants now for us to find.It's a fascinating topic.If you think about the possibilities,it's incredible.

I agree with you. There has got to be other planets out there with life on them. And some with intelligent life. It is very self centered for humans to say Earth is the only planet in the whole universe to have life. And yes, for the religious people, God does not have to mention that there other planets with life for it to be true.

This is a little hard to answer.\n\nFirst, we haven't found any.  So there's no positive evidence, so it's hard to be really sure. \n\nBut on the other hand, there are billions and billions of planets like ours, and it would be really weird if ours was the only one to have life on it.\n\nSo most astronomers think there's probably life out there somewhere.  I hope we find it.

I do think there is a very good chance, statistically, that life exists on other planets. As I stated in a question very similar to this one, comets contain organic-like compounds that could be the building blocks for life, and such comets travel among two or maybe even more stars in a galaxy (interstellar comets).\n\nAs for watching us from above; the only things watching us from above are birds, flying insects, stuff in trees if you happen to be under a tree, people in skyscrapers if you are below a skyscraper, people in aeroplanes, satellites with Earth-directed sensors, etc.\n\nDeities, aliens and Jesus (which all may be one and the same) are probably not watching us from above or at all because they probably don't exist and if they do they probably have not discovered us yet because most complex forms of life on Earth are young relative to cosmic distances (which are measured in time). But it's as false for me to say "I know for a fact that aliens aren't watching us" as it is for anyone else to say "I know for a fact that aliens are watching us".

If you are referring to other planets that are habitable, I believe that mathematically there has to be intelligent life in other parts of the universe. Here is why.\n\n1. The Hubble Telescope estimates that there are 125 billion galaxies.\n2. Each galaxy has roughly 100 billon stars.\n3. If even 1% of those have planets and only 1% of those are habitable and only 1% of those have life, the odds are high.\n\nThe odds are extremely favorable for there to be extraterrestrial life. \n\nOne can use Drake's equation to calculate the chance of life in our galaxy. Multiply that result times the number of galaxies. See the second link below.\n\nA totally different question would be whether or not we would actually interact with extraterrestrials...\n\nI will leave that one to another Y! Answers Question

I don't think that fact means that it is obvious that there is other life in our universe, let alone intelligent life.  (BTW, I think you meant to say solar system instead of galaxy.  A galaxy is made up of many solar systems. )  I'd like to hope that with so many large galaxies out there that there is the possibility of one having a solar system that is capable of creating life.

Of course UFOs are real anything that is flying/hovering and you dont know what it is is a UFO.\n\nAlien spacecraft on the other hand or obviously real. You cant possibly think that in all the BILLIONS of stars in our galaxy and all the TRILLIONS of galaxies in our universe that there isnt other form of life out there that we dont understand yet and that could possibly be visiting our planet.\n\nHave you read about Betty and Barney Hill's abduction. After they were abducted Betty went under hypnotic regression and drew a star map from wht she remembered seeing on the alien spacecraft. A few years later independant researchers compared the drawing with maps of know stars. And the found a match. Interesingly enough our Sun was one of the stars on that chart and all of the other stars on the map were stars similar to our own sun. And if you arent familiar with astronomy stars like our sun make up only a very small portion of the possible size and colors of stars in our galaxy.

A better question might be has there been, is there now or will there be intelligent life somewhere in the universe (other than humans)?\n\nThe earth is about five billion years old with perhaps another five billions years to go and human life has existed here perhaps a million years.  That is a tiny fraction of time and other life forms may arise here that are intelligent sometime in the future.\n\nFor outer space the prospects seem even better since there are perhaps millions of gallaxies with billions of stars each that have existed at some time in the past ten billion years with perhaps as much time left to go.  In fact there exists the possibility that life much as we know it, including DNA (a chemical compound though highly complex) may have existed millions or billions of years ago before us and are now extinct.  It takes so many light years to communicate with any other star within our own galaxie (except the very nearest) but it is impossible to reach anyone from the past.  And if we send signals into the future, we may be gone before we receive a friendly reply.

I doubt that Earth is the only planet in the whole Universe that can sustain life.  There will probably be some other planets out there somewhere with some sort of life on it.  Whether it's intelligent life or not is another question!\n\nThere may very well have been life on Mars, or on other planets in our solar system at one point,  but we have yet to find it, or any evidence.

if theres not i would be extreme surprised.  the universe is so huge that it would be ridiculos to assume or think there isnt.  even though we have only explored probably less then 1% of the universe we have still found planets that we think would be able to suport human life (remember not all life would have to be carbon based like us either) so even if there isnt a planet that we could live on some other type of creature might think its paradise.  the answer to your question is yes there is most likely life other then ours out there somewhere. although it would depend on what you mean by "life" if you mean intelligent life i still think yes there probably is although they have found fossils of bacteria on mars so technically that means there was at one point there was life in our solar system other then earth.

Life exists almost everywhere on earth, and it has many forms.  Some of which are almost impossible to detect and it's debated whether they're actually "life" (like virii).\n\nIf it could be proven either way, I would bet my worldly posessions and my right arm that there is some sort of life beyond Earth.  They might not be carbon-based or water-based, but I am certain that there are objects out there that consume things, grow, reproduce, and possibly defend themselves or even have rational consciousness.\n\nAs for some alien being looking just like a human and living among us, that's a different story.  I can't see two independent strains of life coming out so similar, especially considering the variety right here on our little planet.  Either we'd all be from alien roots, or the "aliens" would have originated from earthly roots.
