Alien Existence Odds – When Will First Contact Be Made

Are we alone in the universe? The existence of intelligent life on other planets is always being debated, and probably always will. Unless first contact is made with some form of extraterrestrial being, we may not ever know for sure.

Many scientific experts have their own theories on the subject; however most agree that with billions known galaxies floating around in the cosmos, it would seem perfectly rational that aliens do indeed exist, somewhere.

Recently, a documentary featured on the Discovery Channel with world famous astrophysicist, Stephen Hawking, has stirred the debate.

With the topic more on the public’s mind these days, odds makers are attempting to strike while the iron is hot.

Many online gambling websites are cashing in and some are posting odds on everything alien.

On the web, Internet bettors can put their money down on when first contact will be made on this planet.

Some sites list 2010 confirmation that there is proof of the existence of alternative life beings from another world at 250/1. Others go as far as saying that there are 50/1 odds that aliens will be proven to exist in 2020 or later.
