Extraterrestrial life (did I spell it right?)

Ok. Extraterrestrial life, better known as E.T.(not the alien with the long finger that glows) Do you think there are other planets in the universe that support life? I personally do.:D Please post your thoughts and oppinions!:)

(I think you did spell it right.)

It's incredibly feasible. There are billions of planets in each galaxies, and thousands (if not millions or billions) of galaxies in the universe. That's a pretty wide space for possibilities.

I personally hope we arn't alone in the universe. I'd like to see another alien race out there. And not ones like the Covenant.

Are there planets that can support life? Undeniably, yes.
Are there planets that have life on them? Undoubtedly, yes.
Are there planets that have intelligent life on them? Arguably, the odds say yes.

I seriously hope there is. Then we can be like "YOU LOOK FUNNY!"

In the words of undoubtedly the worlds greatest philosophers:-

So remember, when you're feeling very small and insecure,
How amazingly unlikely is your birth;
And pray that there's intelligent life somewhere out in space,
'Cause there's bugger all down here on Earth.

Monty Python

Possible, but not very likely in my opinion.

I say it is very plausible.... will we ever make contact... the chances are as slim as the earth being made habitable..... which was a very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very slim chance.

wow thx for the comments.
Yes, I agree that the chances are very large, but I don't understand why they don't come. I mean yeah, they might have come already like in flyin' saucers and stuff, but they never try to contact us. WTF? If they were as curious as we are right now, and had the technology awesome enough to get here real easily, They would have came already. Hell, if I were them, I would come to Earth, make a suprising yet not too show offie entrance, and greet every president, prime minister and leader on the freaking planet. Wouldn't you?

There are miniscule odds of a planet being capable of supporting life, and miniscule odds of life developing on those planets, and miniscule odds of that life developing an intelligent species, and miniscule odds of that intelligence creating a civilization capable of space flight.
Then there is the utterly incomprehensible, huge, vast, enormity of space.
(probably deserves more "big" adjectives)

The odds of our two civilizations meeting are so astronomically small, I don't know how to begin to describe it.
