I do believe that it is likely there is other life in the universe. However, if you try and understand the scale of the universe, you realize it is an understatement to say there is lots of space in space.
I have a problem believing that aliens are smart enough to find us, which is like finding a specific grain of sand on a beach. Smart enough to figure out how to cross the vast distances involved to get here, which is impossible by any technology we know. Yet, when they get here, where do they land, UN? nope. MIT? nope. NASA? nope. Whitehouse? nope. They land in trailer parks. Where apparently, they are NOT smart enough, to find what ever it is they keep looking for in peoples rear ends! :thumbsup:

Once I saw an object very high in the sky, late (2:30 A.M.)on a cloudless summer night. it was brighter by far than any light I ever saw and it was moving very fast.from north to south tt travelled in an arc to the east of me,. after perhaps a few seconds it disappeared in a soundless flash of brilliance, leaving nothing visible. I researched it thoroughly. It was merely a very large meteor that had hit the atmosphere, become incandescent, and then burned up to nothingness before hitting the ground. it was a "shooting star". I reported it to the astronomical observatory of a university in Halifax. They also had film of it. It was an object about as large as a pickup truck, before it hit the atmosphere, they said. Had it been five times as large it may have survived the fall and struck in the atlantic ocean around burmuda. They said that it was travelling at nearly 50,000 mph at entry. A sighting that large is rare, they said. It was being tracked in space before it arrived.
On another occasion, the Ontario Provincial Police called me at the army headquarters at OAKVILLE ONT when I was the duty officer there. A farmer had seen an object strike the water near the shoreline of Lake Huron. The farmer marked the spot nearby an he called the police (OPP) who called HDHQ in Ottawa. They asked him to call my HQ and said that I would arrange recovery of the object. My first request was to suggest that it might be radioactive and they should check for that. It was not. After we recovered it from the lake and examined it cursorily, it was obviously some part of a rocket that had re-entered, burned up (melted). All that was left of it was melted aluminum and a bit copper wire. We shipped it to the defence research laboratory in Shirley's Bay, Ontario for their analysis. It was not of extra terrestrial origin. It was a part of a Russian spacecraft that had fallen from orbit I kept a small piece of it for a paperweight.. I still have it somewhere.
No I have never seen a UFO. No official of the Army has either ( I checked the National HQ Files) I doubt that anyone has ever seen any thing like an Extra-terrestrial spacecraft from another planet, but it is clear the a lot of people have seen phenomena that would make them think that they had seen a UFO. They are not nutjobs either. Unexplainable things do happen..but space travel between inhabited plants from outside the solar system involves such vast distances that seem impossible to cross (for living beings). Distances so vast that even light takes millions of years to travel so far. I feel comfortable with accepting that physics prove such travel is impossible for any life form, possibly excepting micro-organisms.
Therefore there are no creatures from outer space visiting the earth in spacecraft.. Period. (Except in Hollywood, or in fanciful imagination.).

There are about as many reports of creatures from inner space--the hollow Earth people.
Hollow Earth - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Hollow Earth hypothesis proposes that the planet Earth either is entirely hollow or otherwise contains a substantial interior space. The scientific community has dismissed the notion since at least the late 18th century. The concept of a hollow Earth recurs many times in folklore and as the premise for subterranean fiction, a subgenre of adventure fiction. It is also featured in some present-day pseudoscientific and conspiracy theories.

How far is the closest star? | The Sun's Nearest Neighbor
The nearest star, part of a three star system, is 4.37 light-years away, not millions. But, I grant that with our current technology it makes no difference in our ability to reach that star.
