If there is, we will not know unless they come to us, we don't even know if there is any other forms of life apart from that on Earth in the Milkyway yet, so lets not run before we can walk. addition: Life as in what? Any kind of living thing? An algae? A fungus? A human or other higher thinking being? Unfortunately, probably a question that no one will ever know. The milky way is HUGE. Our closest star (besides our sun) is Proxima Centauri. If you traveled the speed of light (which is impossible), you would have to travel 4.2 years. The closest galaxy to our Milky Way is the Canis Major Dwarf galaxy (which is IN our galaxy). It would take you 42,000 years at the speed of light to get there. There are millions and millions and millions of stars in our OWN galaxy. To think that there isn't life on other planets orbiting one of those billions and billions of stars that AREN'T in our galaxy is slim. Chances are that there is life outside our milky way.
