Why do Seth and Alex think so? The first reason is time."The universe is about 12 billion years old. This is long enough for other planets to have intelligent life,"said Seth and Alex.The second reason is size-the universe is so huge."Tools like the Hubble Telescope showed that there are at least100 billion galaxies(星系)in the universe."said Seth."And our galaxy,the Milky Way,has at least100 billion stars.Some planets going arvund these stars might be similar to Earth." In the past, it was hard to look for signs of intelligent life. But now,powerful telescopes allow scientists to discover smaller planets --the size of Mars or Earth-in other solar systems.These planets might have intelligent life. Did intelligent beings from space already visit Earth?"Maybe not," said Alex."It's a long way away. However,intelligent beings may get in touch with us in other ways,such as using radio signals(无线电信号).In fact,they might try to communicate with us in the past,but we didn't have the right tools to receive their messages. However,this is changing.By 2025,we could get in touch with other life forma in our universe and we might even help each other." 1.What do Seth and Alex do? ________________________________________________________________________________________________ 2.How old is our universe? ________________________________________________________________________________________ 3.
