      There’s a lot of planets, and life tends to get everywhere, so its a safe bet there’s life somewhere out there.

      Finding it might be tricky though, and it might not look like we expect it to.

      Hi ebusset!

      There are billions of stars and each probably has its own solar system – if we have a planet that sustains life in our solar system, then I think there’s definitely others out there – probably many! What the atmosphere is like on those planets and how life has evolved is something you can wonder about for hours!
