Evolutionary biologist Saivon Conway Morris, a professor at the University of Cambridge, shared his views on aliens. According to him, they are quite real, and they look exactly like us. He noted that we have yet to find them and make contact with humanoid beings, given the number of terrestrial planets that have been discovered.
Professor Morris's theory
Scientist Morris Conway is famous for his research on the so-called Cambrian explosion. He studied the sudden evolutionary "explosion" in the life of complex animals, which occurred about 542 million years ago. Morris is a man of religion and science. He has been putting forward complex popular scientific theories for a long time.
Given its history, it is no longer surprising why Morris is also involved in research in the field of extraterrestrial life. He says that many of the discovered planets are similar to ours, so it is possible that life has already arisen on them. The scientist believes that intelligent life can develop in any habitable zone that does not boil or freeze. With a reasonable degree of certainty, we can say that the likelihood of developing a life analogous to human is quite high.
Given the number of potential planets, there is good reason to talk about the existence of life on them. Even if we assume that life could develop on every hundredth suitable planet, there will still be a large number of them scattered throughout the galaxy. Most likely, life there is very similar to ours.

Who can live on terrestrial planets?
If Professor Morris is on the right track, then the likelihood that intelligence develops and actively participates in transgalactic expeditions no longer seems impossible.
The number of discovered terrestrial planets is now simply enormous. More problematic is that many of them are so far away that even calculating their distance to our solar system will be difficult. They should be located, in principle, at a distance of hundreds of millions, if not billions of years.
The problem is extremely acute: we cannot be the only ones in the universe, and all the data show this. Perhaps aliens are hiding, although no one can yet answer this question for sure. Dr. Morris believes that we are only getting closer to reality, so to speak.
But are they really hiding? There has been so much evidence for the existence of "someone else" that the idea that aliens might be hiding seems out of place.
Other valid theories
Should these theories of Professor Morris be taken seriously? Given the amount of research devoted to this topic over the years, evidence and experience that has been recorded, it seems not so incredible to assume that aliens not only exist, but have already visited our planet. Even Harvard professor John Mack says when it comes to alien abduction: “Yes, it is. Abductions can occur in a literal, physical sense, or as a kind of psychological, spiritual experience. And it is quite possible that this is happening in another dimension."
Even popular scientists Nio de Grasse Tyson and Bill Nye believe that aliens exist and are intelligent.
Former Canadian Defense Secretary Paul Hellyer not only believes in the existence of aliens, but also claims that at least four known alien species have been visiting our planet for thousands of years. In one of his interviews, he argued that at some levels of government and the military, this is a known fact, which no one is surprised anymore.
Exciting time for disclosure
After all, this topic is so widely discussed now that it is only a matter of time before the final answers. Some believe they already exist, while others await more tangible evidence. Instead of condescendingly accepting the likelihood of aliens, such a prospect should spark curiosity and a desire to learn more about it. Be that as it may, the likelihood of alien life is quite real, and the time when it seemed that this was a crazy conversation of too keen ufologists is long gone.
