(Perhaps) We are Not Alone

Recent news headlines claiming that NASA’s Kepler spacecraft had identified 100 earth-like planets outside our solar system were incorrect, the space agency has reported. Since its launch in 2009, Kepler has sent back data which indicates the existence of over 700 extrasolar planets, or exoplanets.
The data must be tested using “extensive follow-up observations” in order to confirm whether these planets in the Milky Way Galaxy are truly earth-like. It is thought that such small and rocky planets, and not large and gassy ones like Jupiter, would be potentially capable of sustaining life.

I write on these articles all of the time on my blog
In this article I see the Universe eternal with a possible of eternal other Universes in black Holes.
So I believe that it is possible for trillions and trillions of possible habitable Life planets existing out in the cosmos.
