It'd be interesting to have a better idea of how common life (including non-intelligent life) is. It's possible that there other life in our own solar system. We should explore far more within our own solar system. I'm a little hesitant to do that as it also runs the risk of someone bringing that stuff back to Earth.

That being said, Earth life is likely pretty hostile to new forms of life. Hence why all life on Earth, as far as we know, has a common ancestor.
