What the Baha’i Writings Say About Life On Other Planets

The views expressed in our content reflect individual perspectives and do not represent the official views of the Baha'i Faith. Humans love the idea of exploring the vastness of the universe and finding evidence of life on other planets. So how much do we really know about it? To date, NASA has discovered more than 3700 “exoplanets”—those likely to support life as we know it—and 2700 planetary systems. The search for more of these worlds continues, because at least a hundred billion galaxies exist, and each galaxy is full of stars. Do the math yourself! Carl Sagan
So far, Earth is the only planet we know of that harbors life—but recently, the field of astrobiology made a breakthrough when it found ancient organic matter on the surface of Mars. The findings on the red planet definitely boost our quest in the search for life beyond Earth, since Mars is just one planet in this vast universe. So the million dollar question still remains: Is anybody out there?
