Is there life away from Earth?
Is there evidence of Extra terrestrial life out there?
At present there is no evidence---as in anything measurable or detectable, but lack of evidence it seems does not preclude the possibility of non-terrestrial life in the universe.
There is only the possibility of life elsewhere in our universe. There are planets out there circling suns. We know this for a fact. Are any of these planets capable of sustaining life? This we do not know.
The only evidence we have at this point is statistical. The model for life is us, so we've used our location (in relation to our star) and our necessary elements for survival (like water) as the basis for our search. We've already discovered many planets in the "goldilocks" zone and soon, we should be able to detect if they have life sustaining elements on their surface.
So, as of right now, there is no concrete evidence. But the statistical evidence is pretty compelling. Considering how many stars there are in the sky (and galaxies in the universe) it would be unlikely that we are alone. And I suspect that we will have our answer fairly soon (within the next 20-30 years). While that discovery probably won't be little green men (more like little green microbes) it will be no less significant.
yeah no proof yet, Maybe later in Mars, then humans can transport to Mars

Is there Life elsewhere in the Universe?Scientists are searching for Life in inhospitable regions of The Earth, to understand under what conditions Life may exist. Our own Solar System may contain Moons that harbour Life and NASA has missions planned to explorethis possibility.

Hello, all. No, I do not spend my nights and days searching for extraterrestrial life, and I'm sure many of you have all of these cute little jokes and puns. However, I would like this to be a place with respectful discussion concerning how other people think about this topic, if at all. Please...

Is there life on other planets? What do you think?Scientific descoveries suggest that some planets are too hot or too cold for life and that others have no water and so on. But surely humans and animals canNOT be the only living creatures in the whole of the solar system...some even claim to...

The life form in Earth is considered as a rare phenomenon and there are many theories and hypothesis about it. How this life originated is still an intriguing question. So far, there is no conclusive proof or evidence whether similar life form exist elsewhere in the universe.What is your view on...
