Do you think any aliens exist in the universe?

So would I, but in my case at least, it might not be possible. At the age of 82, how many more years I can hope to live? Things happen in their own time. So many before me also did not live to know many things, even Socrates and Laozi. No regrets.

How long do you want to live? (Asking myself as well). You can certainly hope to live another thirty years if you’re okay with pain, immobility and the other niceties of old age.
At 75 I’m pretty strong, but experience a lot more pain than I used to. At this rate of deterioration I figure 15-20 years is Max, unless new interventions arise. There’s not a lot of profit for such pursuits so I’m not even hoping for it. YMMV
 
At least till Feb3, 2027 for both, my wife and myself, when we can celebrate the 60th anniversary of our marriage, and perhaps see the face of my my great-grandchild. I am urging my grand daughter to complete the task. :D
 
If we ever locate them, they better hope they have a tech edge on us, because, if they're sitting on rare metals and gems that they consider merely picturesque, they'll need to get caught up with Aztec and Inca history, stat.
