I must admit the search for intelligent life elsewhere does seem a waste of time. The Drake equation is difficult to prove without any solid supporting evidence , the names Stephen hawking and others may give it credence but don't prove it.. However just like the space race there will be spin offs that benefit us all , but let's suppose there is intelligent life out there , would it not follow the same self interested path as us and eventually pollute and multiply its self out of existence ?
I honestly believe that life abounds in the universe but doubt that it necessarily results in creative intelligent life .
