But, seeming as though we are looking at the sky at night - and those stars we are seeing are millions of light years away, we are just seeing something that happened millions if not billions of years ago. Once the human race dies there will be other life in space, but to think that right now - at this exact point in time that there are other life forms is a little bit far-fetched. Having said that, imagination is within us all, and I for one think I have seen a spacecraft flying at night which was not of human origin. Mind, I was pretty knackered. Thanks for the interesting post ;) At some point in time there will have been other forms of life in space.

However, in so far as life as we understand it, most of the other planets are too hostile for life.

As for the football thing, that's something I wrote about a while ago, in my symmetries of scale thought piece.

DNA is not built from 20 amino acids at all. Proteins are built from amino acids. DNA is built from bases and there are four of those. They are usually labelled G,T,C, and A (hence the 1997 movie title Gattaca about a genetically "inferior" man). Just blogging about this post on <a href="http://www.sciscoop.com" rel="nofollow">SciScoop</a>. (Incidentally, a trick missed initially by the discoverers of the buckyball was that it's shame (A truncated icosahedron) is that of a football (the stitched hexagon/pentagons type), which if they're right about the universe, means its football shaped too!
