If  space was so big do you think order life exist ?

I think given the magnitude of space: the galaxies already discovered, the hundred billion stars in each, the number of planets revolving about them. I find it inconceivable by pure chance alone that earth is the only body with life in the entire universe. To even think so I would feel to be the utmost presumptious conceit of man.\nI even feel that with the hundred billion stars in our galaxy, life in some shape or form must exist within our galaxy in several separate locations. How many life forms at our stage of existence or beyond is another matter entirely, with the knowledge we have now how many madmen does it take to send us all to oblivion, kingdom come or whatever. All this must be thrown into the equation.How many civilisations can survive and for how long? It is my belief though that within the next couple of decades, as our listening apparatus improves by leaps and bounds, that an unmistakeable signal will come, either intentional or not has no bearing on the matter, which will answer your question once and for all. The answer will be YES.\nThere was an unconfirmed signal on 15th August 1977 never repeated, that could have come from the Sagittarius region: i.e. toward the centre of our galaxy. You never know.

Space does not come in particles.\n\nThere is no aether.\n\nQuantrons do not exist.\n\nBut apart from that I'd say you're probably almost right.

There are theoretically countless planets, because there are countless stars, and a countless number of those will have a planet the same distance as ours. So there has to be countless other life forms out there.. the problem is, is that space is so bloody huge that the distance and time it takes to get anywhere far outways the task of actually doing it ( for other advanced lifeforms ).. And the chances that anything would choose to come our way is pretty bloody remote. But don't let religions lead you into believing we are the only lifeforms, that would be naive

The space is endless.If it has any end,man need many years to find it.good bye.

where ?\nin outer space. there is room enough.\nor am I wrong ?

It depends on which side of the religous debate you stand on. But in my view the universe is far to big for only one little speck of life to exist

i don't think in terms of the universe being massive compared to the size of galaxies,but minuscule compared to that which is outside the universe, that way there is an endless supply of material on hand.here at the"center of the universe"it's all relative to our thinking everything is so large but since all we can do is theorize about whats out there,why cant we theorize outside the box,way outside the box. where did science get this idea ? i believe that a chaotic set of galaxies brings about an ordered universe that is a single organism of a larger set of chaotic universes,which in turn forms ordered groups of galactic multiverses which is a small component of a megaverse ,and so on

Outer space must go out forever, else there would be an end to it.  If there were an end to it, what would be on the other side of the end?\n\nI can live forever, and I'm not interested in the "outer limits."  Plenty of interesting things all around.

Life? Sure. Given the speed at which bacterial life formed on earth after it had cooled down enough, it seems that life itself is relatively easy to get going and so would be common in the universe.\n\nOn the other hand, even on earth, it took a long time for life to become multi-cellular. Out of about 3.8 billion years that life has been around, it was one-celled for about 3.1 billion years. This suggests that multi-cellular organisms are fairly hard to get going and so are relatively rare.\n\nAs for other *intelligent* life, I think it is rather uncommon. First, is the issue of how long a species lasts once it gets to radio technology (say). Given our own experience, it may be as little as a few hundred to a thousand years. If that is the case, the probabilities of time overlap with other intelligent life becomes fairly small considering the overall age of the universe and speed of the processes in it.\n\nOne basic fact that we have to come to grips with is that other life is not *obviously* seen around us. Given likely expansion rates and rates of technological developement, we would probably become obvious before too much longer (a few thousand years): we would send self-replicating probes into the universe, or do LARGE scale projects (solar system size). Since we don't see this in the universe at large, technologies reaching that level are almost certainly rare. I would be very surprised if there is currently another species with our level of technology or higher in our galaxy.\n\nHowever, the universe is a BIG place. There are a hundred billion galaxies in the observable universe, each with an average of a hundred billion stars. Even if we only look at spiral galaxies (ellipticals have the wrong composition for our form of life, at least), there are enough of them to almost assure at least one highly advanced technology somewhere. However, the distances involved are such that we may never be able to detect them, especially if we die off in a few thousand years).

Space doesn't exist. There are things IN space. Matter makes up the stars and planets and gasses and eveything you see. Everything you DON'T see, I.E. the large black void, is nothing. There is no matter or antimatter or anything there. It's just....emtpy. Therefore, it doesn't exist. Only the things in it exist.

Well to describe how big the universe is, There are as many galaxys as grains of sand on a beach. I'm pretty sure we would find another body of life, The universe is endless as we know it. There may be another earth out there where dinosaurs are still the rulers of the planet but, even if we did have the technology the goverment would never tell us. It would cause to much religion chaos and destory them. The goverment likes religion its all about control of actions.

It can and does. Most of the universe is empty space, with no matter or energy in it. Unless you mean all of space, as a whole. In which case, it doesn't exist devoid of matter and energy, and it is highly unlikely that it ever would. (Almost impossible, but no one really knows enough to be able to say that, for certain.) But seeing as how space is simply nothingness, I don't see why it couldn't.

I think space is the container for the matter which makes up everything.  I also think there is more than one container which could potentially be parallel dimensions or other worlds with differenet physical rules.  I think the path to these other worlds lies in what is known as a black hole.  They say the universe is infinite so maybe there are an infinite number of containers which would mean they would never run out and have always existed.  Also, time may not me restriced to how we view it.  Our lives may be just a blink to other worlds or almost infinite to others.  There is no possible way to explain it definately, it is all speculation and beliefs.  One way to expalin it is with religion, but what is religion?  A belief in a greater being with absolute control? Or the belief that the "big bang" theory exists?  They are one in the same a belief nothing more.

God dwells in eternity, we dwell in the restraints of physical time. We do not understand that concept. It's like a the earth asking if space exists. I'm sure if the earth could talk, it would have a very hard time understanding its vastness and how it is placed in the midst.

no, but it would be very stupid to assume that Earth is the only planet that can sustain and contains life.  the universe is gigantic.  i don't think any human can truly grasp how vast the universe is.

most probably.. life of other planets is probably totally different from that of our planet.. but it definatly exists
