Loran McCormick：I think they already have it.Judging by the sudden industrialization③，I figure they found something that's probably been here since before humans walked the Earth. Jens Avery：We may find alien life，but it may not want anything to do with us.We are not very advanced and can't even get along with④ each other. Steven Buhrow：I think the more important question is—will any government ever publicly admit it in our lifetime? I fully believe that we could discover alien life today and the government would simply say the public is not ready for this information. Jenna Walsh：I think we already see it，but just don't realize what it is.Intelligent alien life probably doesn't want anything to do with the disaster that is Earth at this point⑤，so no doubt it's playing it safe and observing from a safe distance. Christopher Harvey：By alien life，do you mean intelligent alien life? Then no.It would be extremely hard to find，short of it coming down to Earth.But if you mean unintelligent alien life，like bacteria⑥ or single cell life，we might.
