Looking at this picture, how can there be people that think there isn't life elsewhere?

Thats exactly what I was thinking when I looked at it...

IMO there is no way that every single one of those systems are incapable of supporting life.

The concept of eternity says there is no end, no?

I don't get why it's hard to wrap your noodle around the fact that something is never ending [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]


Also, that picture definitely makes me think there has to be life somewhere...

How can something physical be enternal, or never ending? I do not beleive this to be true and I also beleive astronomers believe there to be limits to our solar system. Anyone know the consenus?

Let me put it to you this way. The earth is not infinite. Yet, if you took a plane and went straight ahead forever, you would never hit the "end of the earth."

If you go up you will break the atmosphere.
The universe is ever expanding.. no one knows for sure if it will continue, stop or collapse. Because it is continually expanding if you were ever to reach the end of the universe which means go faster than it is expanding and break through it you would reach nothingness. The universe ceases to exist at this point and so do you.

Who thinks this? In such a grossly vast universe you'd have to be insanely naive to believe we are alone in this universe.

There are many people that don't believe in alien life. I'd say the majority are religious freaks. I'm pretty sure I read somewhere that there are still more people that don't believe in extraterrestrial life than people that do.
