Majority of Americans Believe There is Intelligent Life and Civilizations on Other Planets
A recent Ipsos poll reveals that more than six in ten
Americans believe there is life on other planets. While a majority (57%) think there is intelligent life
and civilizations on other planets, 26% of Americans believe that alien societies, if they exist, would
be similar to human societies. Moreover, nearly half (45%) agree that UFOs exist and have visited
the Earth, and more than one third (37%) say that humans will create permanent outer space
colonies within the next 80 years.
