Very true, agreed... the universe is probably teeming with life, its everywhere I reckon. The universe is so huge, they say its over 13 billion light years, however they reckon its even bigger than that, but 13 billion years is as far as we have the capabilities to see, its probably endless.
The chances of there being zero life and we are the only planet with life seems ridiculous. There are trillions of planets. Also scientists are always looking for planets with water, however I find this silly, because they are putting human connotations on it, we are only seeing it the way we live, but it doesn't mean an alien race needs the same, they may not need water, we are putting human connotations on it. Same with radio waves, thats humans, why search for radio lol.. it seems silly to me, we need to think outside the box more and be open.
