I want to thank you all for participating in the poll and as always it was great to have the input from those that contributed.

Well, based on our own small poll sample, we scored a bit higher in favor of extraterrestrial life being out there. Based on other, much larger polls:

"Nearly half of Earthlings believe that we aren’t alone in the universe — and want to make contact with alien life, according to a new study.

The findings of the survey — conducted in 24 countries by research group Glocalities — showed that 47 percent of the survey’s 26,000 respondents believe “in the existence of intelligent alien civilizations in the universe.”

And 61 percent responded “yes” when asked if they believe in “some form of life on other planets.”

Among those who believe humans aren’t alone in the universe, 60 percent said we should try to communicate with extraterrestrial beings.

Only a quarter of survey-takers said they don’t think intelligent life exists beyond Earth.
