The Search for Alien Existence: Are We Alone in the Universe?
The search for alien existence is a never-ceasing question. With the universe being so massive, it’s difficult to think that we are the only life form in this vast expanse of space.
Scientists have been attempting to answer this question for decades and there has been no clear answer yet. We may never know for sure if we are alone in the universe until we find other lifeforms or they find us.
The idea that we are alone in the universe is so old, it predates television.
The world is an incredible place and there are so many things we don’t know about it. One of those things is outer space, the vast expanse that lies beyond our planet. We’ve been looking up at the sky for as long as we can remember.
But what’s out there?
Is there life on other planets?
What would happen if aliens invaded Earth?
These questions have fascinated us since before humans even knew how to communicate with one another, and they continue to fascinate us today. We’re all curious about outer space, whether our imaginations run wild or not.
Do you know how many stars there are in the Milky Way Galaxy?
250 billion.
