Life Exists Elsewhere

Here is a link to the article: http://www.popsci.com/science/article/2010-04/hawking-aliens-are-out-there-and-want-our-resources

So apparently life forms do exist on other planets according to Stephen Hawking. He also said that it is plausible for these life forms to be very hostile. Their intention may be similar to that of the aliens in the movie Independence Day starring Will Smith. If that is the case then we are definitely doomed. More advanced life forms will have technology that surpasses our own and it will be easy for them to conquer our world. Of course this may all be speculation, and it may never happen. After all the universe is still expanding and there is a lot of space to cover out there, so how likely would it be for aliens to find our home planet? If life does exist out there then I hope it is benevolent. We could probably learn so much from other life forms and it would help to advance our civilization. It would also make our existence seem less minuscule.
