it is a question that people still argue on,
I believe that we are not alone in the universe but I still am interested in hearing others opinion on this.

Let's go through some numbers so it will be easier to grasp and answer the question. We are orbiting our parent star with 7 more planets which are (with exception of Mars) highly inhospitable (let's also exclude few moons of Saturn and Jupiter). But let's go out of our solar system.

There are aprrox 200 billion stars in our galaxy alone. Some estimates say there are at least 2 planets oribiting each star. What we are looking for are the planets which are orbiting stars in their goldilocks zone (where water can be in liquid form and organic chemistry can take place).

Let's go forward and say that there are billions of other galaxies which consists of billions of stars. We probably aren't alone, we are just so far away.

Let's go through some more numbers.

Seems to me I read that a supercomputer would take 25,000 years to crack a Bitcoin address.

The key to making life from scratch - inorganic to organic, and organic to human - is so complex that the odds that evolution people suggest are way off. It would take hundreds of billions of years to make life out of inorganics, or human from simple one-celled creatures.

Probably, the further back we go, the greater the odds against life at all. You can search for the number of electrons in the universe. But this is far less than the complexity involved in life.


What this means is that if there is life out there somewhere, it is completely different than any life we understand. Or it means that the whole process for life coming into being is dynamically different that anything that we have come close to thinking of.

When you run the numbers for life, even life on Earth is impossible to exist... except for the fact that it does. How life got here, and where it came from (technically speaking), is completely unknown. Odds are strongly against the universe being big enough that life in intelligent form exists anywhere else in the universe.

Research the numbers for life.
