      I think the probability that we are the only planet harbouring life is very low. If you think of how many planets are in our galaxy and how many galaxies there are in the universe, then there has to be planets that are able to support life.
      If alien life ever visits us, let’s hope they have a sense of humour….:)

      We can’t be right? If life is so improbable, but we exist, surely in the huge expanse of universe there must be other life somewhere! I don’t know if we will ever find proof though… the universe is just SO big. Maybe one day we will find out?
