Sure there's life on other planets. If universe is infinite(don't think so) then there's an infinite chance of life on other planets, ergo there are an infinite number of other races. The Drake equation, which is a principle guideline for SETI and the like uses astronomical, biological and social factors to calculate the potential number of other races in this galaxy:
N = R * f p * n e * f l * f i * f c * L
And it equals 50.
There have been and still are many discussions on the validity of the equation, but the point is, even mathematically speaking there is bound to be life on other planets.
There is life on other planets.
