      Hi Grace,

      hard evidence, no, but it is likely that there is. We’ve found water on other planets (and we believe water is a requirement for life) so it may be that there are, were or could be life on planets nearby. However, if you believe that the universe is infinite, then there is a strong possibility that the events which led to life springing up on Earth have also happened elsewhere.

      hello 🙂

      No, not hard evidence. Scientists got very excited for a megastructure they found around a star called KIC 8462852 (or WTF star – I am not joking that is the name xD . They can’t really explain what that giant structure is so maybe… someone build it? These are just hypothesis, I am sure there are hundreds of explanations, but I think it is the best proof that science has atm.
