I go outside at night every once in a while, look at the stars, and think "we're still here...... floating in space". Still here...... all alone.

They have sent things off that will, in not that long, help find out if there is in fact life on other planets. The universe is about 15 billion years old and the earth is only about 5 billion years old. Plus, we evolved slow (too many years of just bacteria on this earth; it was a simpler time). Very good chance that somewhere there is life. But for now, until we know of their existence, does it really matter if there is other life? We are still alone.

It's not that hard for life to exist. Basically, you need a very simple life form. This life form needs to be imperfect: to not be able to reproduce exactly the same. Give it some time, and the cycle of evolving starts. Luckily, it got us to the point where we are aware of the universe, and ourselves. Thus, we can find other life forms. And play chess with them.

So, the chances of life existing depends of the chances of there being the right chemical reaction, the right amount of light, the right amount of food/water, and the right temperature. Very possible. Maybe we can interbreed it with our chickens, or maybe I just have absurd thoughts.
