    Do you believe in aliens? Why do you believe or why you don't believe?

    Yes. There are just too many planets with an almost identical makeup to ours for life elsewhere not to be around. There are hundreds of places discovered with all the key components of life on earth: water, carbon, oxygen, ect.

    To add to John's analysis, that's assuming that the only type of life that exists is carbon based and requires the same ingredients we know and understand... which when you go up/down in the body largeness scale, things could look quite different as far as requirements for life.
    Also assumes that life exists only in 3 dimensions.

    Too many possibilities with 14 billion years full of chances for it to appear elsewhere, the chances are soooo small that earthlings are the only ones.

    Absolutely. Even with the most advanced telescopes I doubt we've charted more than just a small fraction of the universe. Definitely also agree with @(you need an account to see links), I've read some fascinating articles about how it's possible that we, as occupants of the 3rd dimension, might not be able to easily perceive the dimensions beyond the first, second, and third. There might be lifeforms out there that we just can't recognize with any sort of currently available technology. :o

    Life on other planets... Yes. Life being anything from bacteria to a dog. There is a strong theory that there could be life on Titan.

    We have also found about 8 plants that look like earth and could support life as they are in the perfect orbit around their star and from what we can see, have an atmosphere

    Astro physics is fun : )


    I see you have an opinion?

    It would be naive to not believe in life on other planets.

    I belive there is life in other planets, I don't know if inteligent life, but life indeed.
    If aliens are those human shaped creatures that have tecnology and such, then no, I don't belive
    But if they are animals or creatures of other kinds, I do

    I'm very convinced that there are other life forms in this universe; I mean it's so gigantic- chances are we are not the only intelligent ones here. We're probably just so far away from each other that we'll never encounter each other (yet, anyways).

    I believe too, but it's hard to convince people, they have more arguments, because all we have are theories.
