Stephen Hawking's Take on Aliens
Summary
Do aliens exist? If so, where could they be found, what do they look like, what are they made of, are they intelligent, and if we met them, what would it mean for human kind? Wherever Stephen Hawkings goes, he is always asked, “Do aliens exist?” and “Are we alone on this big blue ball.”
Hawking doesn’t think we’re alone in the universe. The simple vastness of the galaxies – billions of galaxies - and the universe makes it probable that life forms have evolved somewhere else in the cosmos.
To Hawkings, the mathematical numbers mean it’s obvious that life on other worlds exist. The only question is what do they look like? It could range from “simple green slime” to more advanced animals. Perhaps there are even intelligent beings, even civilizations.
