Yes.

It is very likely that the universe is packed with life all over the place, but the problem is that traveling across space involves such massive distances and difficulties that it is very hard to find and make contact with other places beyond our solar system.

Man has only been exploring space for 50 years and so we are still really only just at the beginning of seeing beyond earth. We have only sent men to the moon so far and that is very close.

If we wanted to visit planets beyond our own solar system then we would have to develop much better and faster technology to travel to other places outside of our solar system before we could look for life elsewhere.

The reason why there is life here on earth is because our planet is not too close to the sun to be too hot and not too far away to be too cold - life is very fragile and so our temperatures have to be just right as we orbit the sun otherwise life could not survive. But this means that statistically with all those other stars out there - millions and billions of them - there must be other planets orbiting other suns that are at the same distance that we are and so there would be a great chance of life also existing on those planets as well.

Yes, NASA has found some planets trillions of light years away that can possibly sustain life. ________________ I'm doubtful about the above planets that are suggested to be 'trillions' of light years away. That brings us well beyond the Milky Way, and we are just now learning to detect very large planets orbiting relatively near-by stars. But life is possible. I think that the only reasonable choices are "possible" or "certain". Even if we never detect life on another planet, no amount of science will ever bring us to conclude that it cannot be out there somewhere.

There are many possible ways of life outside our solar system. Since there are literally millions of other solar systems, odds are that some carry the materials to support life, like carbon or water or an atmosphere.

But it's also a matter of opinion, since science hasn't yet proven that there is life somewhere else.

On one planet manley mars there might be able to be life forms if they were very small creatures.

Is there life in our solar system?

Yes, the planet Earth is part of the solar system, so all the life on Earth is in the solar system. Yes, our Earth is part of the Solar System. As to life on other planets - both within our Solar System and in other solar systems (planets around other stars), nothing has been proven yet, one way or the other. Specifically, no life has been found on other planets. It would seem probable, though, that what happened on Earth can happen again - perhaps on nearly any planet, perhaps only occasionally.


Are there solar systems in Andromeda galaxy?

We don't know for sure - Andromeda is just too far to see that small detail. However, from current understanding of solar system formation, there will be billions of solar systems, planets and probably life .


Is there life on other planets in your solar system?

Yes; there are three. One is ceres(a dwarf planet) which is between Jupiter, and Mars. Eris is the second dwarf planet located past pluto. There is another planet that scientists researched on.


Do other galaxies have solar systems?

The definition "Solar System" is defined as the Sun (Sol) and all the objects in orbit around it, but also a collection of heavenly bodies including a star or binary star, and any lighter stars, brown dwarfs, planets, and other objects in orbit. To ease confusion, "Solar System" is generally our Sun and the objects that orbit it. For other "Systems" use planetary systems [See Link] For a list of known planetary systems and known extrasolar planets, see link. Outside of our Sun there are over 400 planets known to orbit other stars and the number is increasing every day. So yes there is other "solar" stellar systems in space - probably billions of them, but as yet we only know of a few.


What is on Earth that no other planet has?

Complex Life. (in our solar system at least)

Is there life on other planets is there any similar to earth?

Astronomers have found Earth-sized planets in other solar systems.


Would people be able to live on other solar systems?

Maybe, but it will not be for quite a while yet. There are two big problems: one is that the other solar systems (we should really say stellar systems) are SO far away, and the other is that the requirements for a planet friendly to human life are pretty restrictive.


Are there more solar systems like ours?

Exactly like ours? Not that we've seen yet. Are there solar systems orbiting other suns? Sure there are, not many with planets that could support life as we know it tho...


How does ther respiratory system work with other systems?

Respiratory system provides O2 to all other body systems , no life is possible with out O2 .


Is there life in our solar system?

Yes, the planet Earth is part of the solar system, so all the life on Earth is in the solar system. Yes, our Earth is part of the Solar System. As to life on other planets - both within our Solar System and in other solar systems (planets around other stars), nothing has been proven yet, one way or the other. Specifically, no life has been found on other planets. It would seem probable, though, that what happened on Earth can happen again - perhaps on nearly any planet, perhaps only occasionally.


What planet have aliens?

ALL OF THeM!! But seriously: We know of no planet except Earth with life on it in our solar system, and the conditions on other planets forbid advanced life. There are planets belonging to other suns, but they are very far away, and we have no information about life on them. It is extremely unlikely, but not impossible, that aliens from other solar systems have visited our solar system.


What happens when aliens get common cold?

there are no aliens its all just imaginative it might be in other solar systems like in every star there is a solar system and no life exist in any other planet except earth


Are there aliens in the universe?

This is a highly debatable question, but logically speaking it is statistically probable that there are other forms of life out there, but the form of that life cannot be predicted with any certainty.Should human probes ever travel to other solar systems, the question would be probably be answered. If forms of life like ours do not exist, their possible introduction to other worlds would be an ethical dilemma.


Is there life near Sirius?

There may, or may not, be. No life has been found even in our own Solar System (outside of planet Earth), much less in other star systems - but it isn't yet been possible to travel to nearby stars, so there is really no way to know for sure.


Is there life in other planets in your solar system?


Could there be another solar system?

yes there could be another one out there some where because if you think about it where does our solar system end? We already know that there are other solar systems; we have observed planets around distant stars. We have not yet observed any planet that appears to be enough like earth to sustain life. We do know that there are other solar systems, though I seriously doubt that they have ever had life on them, regardless of whether they have or had water on it, which isn't a fail safe way of proving that any other planet or even universe has or ever had life in the first place. The only other real life out there, besides that on earth, is the spiritual ones, like God and his angels, fallen and the original ones.


Are there solar systems in Andromeda galaxy?

We don't know for sure - Andromeda is just too far to see that small detail. However, from current understanding of solar system formation, there will be billions of solar systems, planets and probably life .
