Fibutton Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 http://news.sky.com/home/world-news/article/16055937, an interesting read. Makes me think if there are that many on THIS planet, surely there must be at least one species on another of the planets........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeMaquis Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 I think your title should read 8.7 MILLION species. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HeadingNorth Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 Makes me think if there are that many on THIS planet, surely there must be at least one species on another of the planets........ Apropos of which, http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-14637109 Although it's unlikely that anything more interesting than simple bacteria could possibly exist on any other planet. However, the satellite Europa is believed to have a world-girdling ocean beneath a layer of ice; all evidence found on this planet tends to suggest that anywhere that life possibly can exist, it will exist. There may well be life on Europa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fibutton Posted August 24, 2011 Author Share Posted August 24, 2011 Heading North ...wow! Is it beyond the bounds of possibility that in years to come, those bacteria on other planets may also evolve into intelligent life? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waltheof Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 How on earth did Noah fit all those into the Ark? Let alone all those we now call dinosaurs but which some theologians (and creationists) define as antediluvian, i.e. they existed but were wiped out by the Flood and became extinct. That must have been some helluva ship! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There may well be life on Europa. There's also a solar system out their which is almost identical to ours in form and time. Hubble apparently found it recently...I'll see if I can find it.
