      Hey Guillermo,

      This is such a hard question to answer and one that I can only speculate on! When you think about how enormous and how old the universe is, I can’t possibly believe we are the only life out there! However, I think some other life forms might be so different to us that we can’t even imagine what they look like… I guess I believe that maybe they are more advanced but maybe they are so different that it is hard to compare! What do you think?

    Also, whose definition of advanced would we use? If any other life holds very different priorities from us, then they might view advancement differently. Even on Earth different cultures and countries want different things, a completely different life form will probably want different things from us.
