Not worth responding to. I thought better of you......
But as it goes, our solar system is part of the milky way galaxy. If the Milky Way galaxy were shrunk down to the size of North America, our solar system would fit inside a coffee cup. The sun is one of about 100 billion stars in our own galaxy, called the Milky Way.
Galaxies are enormous swarms of stars, dust, gas, and dark matter held together by gravity. The sun is one of about 100 billion stars in our own galaxy, called the Milky Way. If you think that’s incredible, imagine this: The Milky Way is just one of billions in the observable universe!
Most galaxies are found in clusters of about 150 galaxies, bound together by each other’s gravity. Our Milky Way is part of a small cluster of some 30 galaxies called the Local Group. Clusters of galaxies are often collected in superclusters. Our Local Group is part of the Virgo Supercluster, which contains several thousand galaxies.
Galaxies range in size, containing anywhere from 100,000 to 3 trillion stars! They also come in different shapes.
Therefore i'd be extremelly surprised if other forms of life, (if not many, at least one!) similar to ours on planet earth, did not exist. Wouldn't you?
Whether or not such civilisations have made it into our earths atmosphere is somewhat unknown. I've seen no compelling evidence.
But i certainly do not doubt that there is a high chance of life outside our solar system, and life inside and outside our galaxy, the milky way.
