      Yes, most likely there is life out there in the Universe, as the laws of physics that allow life to exist are the same everywhere. Life could be like here on Earth, but it could also be very differently.

      Hello again Bookworm! I’m certain there is life on other planets. Maybe not in our solar system, but definitely around another star. I don’t know if we’ll ever be able to talk to aliens like us as they’re so far away (imagine having to wait ten years for a reply to your text message!) but we should soon be able to see evidence of simple things like bacteria by seeing if they emit any oxygen like they do here on Earth. We live in interesting times!
