• Question: Do you think that their are other lifeforms (apart from micro-orgaims) other than us in existence, if so, why? I do!

      yes I think so. The universe is so huge that I can’t believe that life only evolved once. I do think that micro-organisms are the most likely life to find though, but more complex things like jellyfish, or dictyostelium (google it, they are bizarre and amazing creatures!) are quite possible.

      Other organisms as complex and self-aware as us? I do hope so. Meeting them would be an amazing adventure.

      I do! The universe is infinite and still expanding. It is 13.7 million years old, I think it is mad to think there is nothing else out there 🙂

      There could even be another Earth…with another you…reading this message…a parallel universe! Who knows?

      I do indeed! The universe is enormous. They may be a planet that is parallel with us and is evolving the way we are, or they might be evolving faster or slower. There could a planet that are years ahead of us or another planet that has dinosaurs roaming. It’s amazing when you think that we are just a small piece of a very very big jigsaw! 🙂
