Hawking has indicated that he is almost certain that alien life exists in other parts of the universe and uses a mathematical basis for his assumptions. "To my mathematical brain, the numbers alone make thinking about aliens perfectly rational. The real challenge is to work out what aliens might actually be like."

in the first episode of "Into the Universe with Stephen Hawking" he compares a planet winding up being hospitable to alien life to a lottery (this is paraphrasing, i couldn't find a transcript anywhere) "even if we don't know who wins most of the time, given the size of the universe and the amount of planets within it, i think it is safe to say that most weeks someone hits the jackpot" "whether or not the product of that goes on to be an intelligent civilization however, is a whole different lottery"

so to put it in as short terms as possible. yes, we were a product of luck, after all wouldn't someone have to strike it lucky eventually with millions or even billions of possible entries at the least?
