Most scientists believe that life does exist elsewhere but the question of intelligent life is still unanswered. The timetable for human expansion into space would make your generation one of the first explorers since we are not planning on reaching Mars with human teams until about 2030. Space is big. It can hold as many people as we can find the technology to put there.
