i heard that a star exploding (or something like that) has the power to create life. so my question is that since stars explode and stuff could there be life in other galaxies? we would just be too far away to tell..right..or am i just confusing myself?

  1. you are absolutely right. Currently, most scientist now agree that there is a very probable chance that other life exists. In fact, they believe that there are thousands of thousands of places where life can exist. The first step in finding this out is if there are other planets around other stars. In the last 5 years, hundreds of planets have been found around other stars. Similar principles apply to formation of stars like that or our sun. Nebula is provoked by nearby star explosion, whicj causes debree to clunk together. As more debree forms, graviational forces cause large chunks to come together and form a nucleus surrounded by a disk of smaller debree. Soon enough heat and pressure build up for nuclear fusion to occur. The center becomes the star, and the surrounding disk eventually clunks together to form planets. SInce most planets follow the same principle, there are trillions of undiscovered planets out in the universe. Now the question of life. If life can occur in one place (The Earth) there are a possibility that the same forces that formed the creation of lif ecould happen elsewhere. Imagine having a dice with a million sides. One of the million held the chance of life while the others suggested there is no life. If the dice was rolled a trillion times (considering the number of stars there are in just the milky way galaxy...not even counting other galaxies with infinite stars) there is likely a chance that the sign of life will appear more than once. Why do you think that scientists are so obsessed with moons like Europa ( Jupiter's moon covered in thick Ice only to hide a massive water ocean)  or Titan (saturn;s moon that has the same atmosphere as Early Earth itself) and not to mention the big one... MARS. Scientists believe that even if the slightest microbes, or even simple evidence that microbes once existed, can be found within our solar system, then the likelihood of life on other planets is absolute. In fact, if life is found elswhere in the solar system, it would provide scientists with enough evidence that not only life exists outside Earth and our galaxy, but in fact, it is just a common phenomenon that happens regularly within the universe. (we just can't reach it by means of any contact)


  2. there almost certainly is other life form even other dimensions

  3. The late Dr. Carl Sagan once spoke of his belief of life on other planets, some quite possibly human or human-like!!

    However, Dr. Sagan believed that such life may live way too far to reach Earth--and vice versa.

    I strongly believe that Earth has a twin out there somewhere---and on THAT planet are humans just like us.  I think within the next 5 to 12 years, we will find that planet---and find evidence that intellegent life there exists.  But alas, we'll also prove Dr. Sagan to be correct.

  4. like?

    stars exploding make life?

    like thats just like crazy like.

    no. stars don't bring on life.

    workable proteins, molded into enzymes under the corrected conditions and chemicals bring on life.

    saying an exploding star creating life is like saying,

    drinking beer at the bar was the moment of conception for a child even before the two drunk people sleep together after drinking those beers.

    a planet with the proper temp, and chemicals is the key.

    but like anyways, your ARE right.....  (in a way)

    life could exist in other galaxies. the odds are just too incredible when you count each and ever star contained in that galaxy and the fact that 70% of those stars have at least 3 planets orbiting them.

    so thats about 100,000,000,000 * .7 * 3 =

    210,000,000,000 chances of life (roughly)

    but even if you say, well d**n, only .001 % of those planets might have the right chemicals

    then you have about a number like

    210,000,000 chances of life

  5. There is no doubt that there is life throughout the Universe but the question which should be asked is: " Are all of a similar technological age " ? By this I mean are there some forms of life which are far superior intellectually to others due to whatever reasons. These are the types of questions we should be asking ourselves & trying to solve !

  6. I'm pretty sure in a couple years we will find life around the star gliese 876

  7. Of course, I'm sure billions of galaxies are very similar to ours and billions of solar systems are almost exactly like ours.

  8. .we Ar not alone

    we to dumb to no if thears is.

  9. Without getting (too) technical, we're moving away from the center of the universe at faster than the speed of light, so, for now, the universe as we know it is the little bit we can see, but it is, theoretically, infinite, so in an infinite universe, there must be life somewhere.

    The chances of us ever running into them, however, is far less likely.

  10. There is life in other galaxies,we may never get proof that there is but it is a certain thing.

  11. its very posible... but i would love to meet any kind of "friendly"

    alien, but if earth ever invited them to stay on earth and human had s*x with one. would it be called beastiality? lol

  12. i believe we are nott alone we have just not takin the time to check it out.and yes we are too far away to know at this point for sure.but i do believe there is other life besides us out there.one dayy we will findd outt.ha and no im nott one of those crazy people who think theyy havee been abducted by aliens.ha hope this helps -jackie-

  13. maybe yes.

  14. I 100% believe there are lives on other galaxies. We are not the only ones.

  15. idk. i think life (as we know it birth,growth,...,) only exist on earth and as far from earth as we have traveled.
