Is it possible that somewhere in the universe maybe in another galaxy far away there are other living organisms? intellegent organisms? Ok ive never really been into space stuff in my life but that all changed when i saw that nasa landed two rovers on to Mars. I never really knew what mars looked liked and i never really understood that mars is a planet very similar to Earth. Since then ive been studing anything i can about the universe. Where it came from? When it happened? And why did the universe happen? If the universe never existed everything we as humans have ever know would not exist. You and me wouldnt exist wow isnt that crazy! Ok this is the point i want to make about aliens. We live in a solar system that circles a sun, there are 9 planets and over 40 moons, and every star you see at night is really just another sun only super far away some of these stars have many planets around them and some dont but the cool part is that in our galaxy alone there is over 100 billion stars and in the universe there is over a billion galaxies so i believe it is possibe that other live may exist out there.

There is a physicist called Fermi who thought it was stastically ludicrous that there WOULDN'T be aliens around. However due to the ages stars live, cosmic disasters such as metoir strikes and supernovas, and internal disasters such as wars, the chances are MILLIONS of civilisations could rise and fall all over the place without any of them ever knowing of the others existence. There are lots of other really interesting variables as well. Ive read quite alot about it, but can't me arsed to regurgitate it all lol.
I could recommend three books by Stephen Baxter that are good on this though. They are so full of scientific theory that theyre only borderline novels, and have plenty of useful hard science and philosophical conjecture:
(Manifold) Time (Manifold) Space The Vacuum Diagrams
I highly recommend them

The one bad thing about thoses books tho is they seems so one sided. most space books are opinon not fact, but then agian if u had a pure fact book it would be kinda dull. eh . I always like to think that in a galaxy far far away there is a star wars haha.
