Hi;
I hope so! Given how many planets are being found in other star systems with new missions such as Kepler (27 confirmed planets, more than 1,200 planet candidates - see http://kepler.nasa.gov/Mission/discoveries/), with just a short time looking at a small piece of the sky, I can easily believe there are other planets with life. However, life may not look like "us", but may be more like a planet covered in slime moulds. Not life to sit and have coffee with, but life nonetheless!
