Alien life has already been proven to exist, just not in the way you mean. Tiny "bacteria" have been found on planets, which technically counts, as they are alive. spike6958Link?

It really makes you just wonder what's out there. Think about the edge of the universe. Just think about what that could be like, it's so... unknown. I love astronomy!
[QUOTE="NailedGR"]Is this a fact? How are you so sure that there just aren't any sources of light that far out?The universe is not infinite, if it were, every direction you look would be light, and since there is not light in all directions, the universe is not infinite.

We can't be sure of that, but as far as we can tell the universe isn't infinite.
I like to pretend the universe is like a game of Asteroids. If you go far enough in one direction, you end up on the other side.
[QUOTE="NailedGR"]What? Expand on that please.The universe is not infinite, if it were, every direction you look would be light, and since there is not light in all directions, the universe is not infinite.

If the universe was globe shaped, the light would bend right back around the other side. Like wind blowing across the Earth going around it multiple times. You'd see countless copies across the sky of the same stars and galaxies
Well we don't know how many planets there actually are, there could be a limited number of ones that can support life.
But there is alien life out there. I believe even intelligent alien life like us (or maybe more intelligent), I believe they exist out there, some where. I belive God made other intelligent beings like us, and some day we will meet some alien beings, but now is not the time.
I don't really believe in UFO's that fly around butt raping people though.
there is life on other planets that arent in the milky way
and to them we're probably the aliens

Yeah it is, that is in astronomy 101 courses across the world. Lemme see if I can find my old astronomy text book.
