Yep, but maybe they are so far away that they haven’t reached us yet.

Or maybe we’re not looking for the right things.

Or maybe life that we might be able to observe hasn’t evolved far enough for us to observe.

Or maybe it came and went long before we even started looking.

Ya, many questions and possibilities.

My personal position is that there is / was / will be other life in the universe but we’ll probably never know about it.

That’s what intuition leads to, but im not so certain. Simple life is probably abundant but complex, or even - intelligent life, might be extremely rare.

Seems likely, so many opportunities for us not to have got this far.
