There's water on Mars ... there's water on the Moon .... there is water everywhere we have looked now ...
But does water equate to life?
So do you think there is life on other planets? ... Are they as advanced as us, or more or less?
What are the chances, huh  |

Where have we come from dear Humanist?
Are you an Eric Von Daniken (spelling?) follower ... or a God-squadder?  |

Humans aren't due to encounter alien species until 5th April 2063, when Zephram Cochrane will be the first human to travel at warp speed. This will get the attention of alien species who will make first contact with Cochrane and help to usher Earth into a new era of peace and sponsor our entry into the United Federation of Planets.
Incidentally, Cochrane isn't due to be born until 2032. |

| I think theres definately life on other planets. There has to be. Maybe even different forms of life who need whatever elements they have in their own planets, not necessarily water, oxygen etc... |

Ray ... are your opinions formed by what you are told on Discovery channel ...
So do you think there are other life forms, more or less advanced than us ..... on other planets ...?
(Don't tell me what Discovery says ). |

| I don't know if there are aliens out there but in a way I hope there aren't. It would be really crap if the scientologists are right. Tom Cruise doesn't need to look any more smug than he does already. |

Despite and in spite of Tom Cruise ( ) and all the other scientologists .... Man has been speculating about the existence of other life forms for so long now ...
Why have we had no real evidence of extraterrestrial life forms ... when all statistics suggest the Universe should be teeming with them ...
And all we get now is that yes there is water, wherever we have looked ... but where is the life? ... We were led to believe, where there is water, there is life ... that has not happened yet ...  |

whats wrong with discovery channel? there is a nice series Fearless Planet... amazing...
ofcourse there are but they still could be in single cell organism stage. I dont think there are more intelligent species than us out there...cause if there were they would atleast make an official contact...offer some free alternative energy sources  |
