on other planets For years scientists said no or we don t know But today this is changing Seth Shostak and Alexandra Barnett are astronomers 天文学家 They believe intelligent life exists 存在 somewhere in the universe They also think we sill soon contact these beings 人 生物 Why do Shostak and Barnett think intelligent life exists on other planets The first reason is time Scientists believe the universe
