To look up at all those stars and say there is not another planet like earth is hard to do.

There has to be something or somethings on one of those planets circling one of the billions of stars.
The Hubble Space Telescope may have discovered as many as 100 new planets orbiting stars in our galaxy.
Hubble's harvest comes from a sweep of thousands of stars in the dome-like bulge of the Milky Way.
If confirmed it would almost double the number of planets known to be circling other stars to about 230.
The discovery will lend support to the idea that almost every sunlike star in our galaxy, and probably the Universe, is accompanied by planets

The weird thing about this topic is the stars we see here on earth are probably not even there today

Life's delicate balance. To date no other life has been found in our solar system despite planets that have/had water (Mars) or large amount of organics and radiation shielding (Venus). Life as we know it needs not only water, organic compounds, and radiation shielding, but the right amounts of it. You also need a planet that evolves in the correct fashion to allow life to adapt.
