It looks like there is water in planet Mars. There is a possibility of life out there. may be some kind of life in other planets too. Do you think life in other planets a possibility?

My philosophy on this is simple...Why would God have gone through all the trouble of creating the entire vastness of the universe only to put life on one little ball of mud called EARTH in the corner of it? I do believe in life on other planets, and I believe that some of them have actually visited Earth. Our government has withheld the proof of this fact every since that crash in Roswell, and I firmly believe that they are still holding this evidence at the Area 51 Base at Groom Lake. I, myself, have seen UFO's on more than one occasion. I know a little about airplanes and helicopters, and admittedly, I cannot say without a doubt that some of the objects I saw were not a plane or helicopter. However, there were some others that I can say for certain were NOT airplanes or helicopters. I do not know what they were, but they were NOT aircraft that I am familiar with.

I believe you. Plus, all the people who have said they saw them, even seen life. Isn't it weird that all descriptions are very simular? Are millions of people lying and saying the same lie.? I don't think so. We went to the mon. (And don't let anyone tell you we didn't.) Why can't other life visit our planet.

Wow, that's a terrible information. Do you mean something like a flying saucer? I do believe the life in other planets a reality.

wasn't it the astronauts aboard Apollo 11 who reported seeing a UFO of some sort? I know they reported seeing a UFO on one of those missions back then, but I can't remember which one it was. They were silenced by the government on this issue as well. Why does our government want to hide the truth so badly? What is it that our politicians do not want us to know? UFO sightings go back thousands of years. Cave drawings have been found that date back to the earliest history of man, and in some of these drawings, there are little pictures that are thought to depict UFOs. Some people believe that the crash in Roswell was somehow linked to the atomic bomb testings that went on out there. It is obvious that these beings (or aliens if that is what you choose to call them) are FAR more technologically advanced than we are. Maybe they were coming to help us undo the damage we did out there with those nuclear tests? One thing that is also interesting is that it is not just our government, or people in our country, who are aware of these UFOs. People in several other countries around the world have reported sightings. The evidence is there...

Life other than us in our solar system, I'm not sure. But I think it would be ridiculous and selfishly egotistical of humans to believe we were it in the entire universe. There are hundreds of thousands of solar systems just like ours in this universe...with a star serving as their sun and planets making their orbits...how in the world would it be sane to think life elsewhere wasn't a possibility? Whether intelligent or not, I believe there is life other than us without a doubt...just like I know our sky is blue, there is life elsewhere. I'm not so positive in my answers about whether or not some have visited earth, or if that life is human-like or just a kind of bacterium, but this universe is much too large to only have us.

I am so glad that you seem to have vast knowledge on varied subjects at your young age.I am sure you have a great future and my best wishes for you always. Yes, lovinglife, there millions and millions of stars, planets and satellites in the Universe, all a big mystery.Who knows, some life from other planet would have visited earth in the past.

Thank you for the compliment. I once thought of going to school for astro-physics...astronomy fascinates me, and a side thought of that is life that may be found elsewhere. I have seen an unidentified flying object...whether or not it was completely explainable or from inhuman sources, I don't know. But the very idea that other races have visited earth is intriguing. When I hear people tell me they've seen aliens or UFOs, I don't laugh. I think it's completely possible.

I think it's almost impossible that our planet is the only one that has life on it. I don't know what kind. Even if it's plants, that is still life. I don't think there are any "ETs" out there but we can't really even be sure about that.

I don't know they are ETs. But definitely living souls, that much I can say about them.

Well I think there is so much we as people can understand and handle. I honestly think Maybe there is probably maybe most likely. Look we have earth but why can't there be any other planets similar to ours. there are so many other solar systems out there it's crazy. When I was in 6 grade I got every good grades they wanted to take me to some space camp in Alabama I learn a lot of over there and made many friends from different states and everything. Well after that I think there is for sure life out there some where. There wont be the same animals or creators or plants. I think IN time we will find out and learn how to travel in light speed but that will take lots of time and smart scientist. But yeah Hopefully I'm alive to see this happen haha .. well yeah Have a nice day and keep up the posting.. =]

Why not ? Everyday they say that the universe is so big, it is keeping on expanding and stuff like that. If its so big then doesn't it feel really stupid to say that we are the only living beings in this universe ?

yaa.....i do strongly believe in outer world and there is existence of ther too.And i always had a keen interest to increase my knowledge about the same and thus i love reading about aleins and ufo sightings...because if we are there then there would be some more who might be thinking same like us...And there is always news about the same...and i think its never fake...!!! They(aleins) do exist somewhere or the other and one day, we will reach our neighbours and my thus only just keep your friends crossed...and also pray that if they do really exist then they should be of a peaceful nature and does not cause any harm to our Mother Earth...!!!

If you look at it from a purely scientific perspective it would be very difficult to think there is not life some where out there. May not be life as we know it but some form. When you consider all the solar systems that are known today, much like our own milk way, it would seem even unlikely that this lone planet would be the only one in the universe to hold life form. Considering the distance to the closest galaxy it is not likely that we will know for sure in even our childrens lifetime. But the complexity of it will not stop the human race from trying. One day however, in the distant future, they may indeed figure out how to find that other life form. To do that we must be able to travel at light speed. Who knows. There was a time in the not too distant past when it was thought impossible to travel the speed of sound. Sooooo.........

Hi vijayanths, I would be very surprised if there wasn't life on other planets. The earth is a mere speck of dust in the universe, it would be very strange if this was the only planet with life. As for Mars, it looks like there may be some kind of life there or at least there probably was in the past. Blessings.

I dont believe that water is present in other planets, there are many reasons that i found from some off the ancient indian historical books, which believes no planet has water other than Earth.
