Excluding a mass cataclysm (nuclear war, a hyper destructive pathogen), I think we'll find evidence of extra-terrestrial life (if not life itself) in our own solar system in the next ~100 years.

I would think somewhere out in the universe there is (was?) intelligent life.

We've only confirmed exoplanets in the last ~40 years and the information we have is minimal (and biased towards gas giant type planets).

There has to be intelligent life somewhere in the universe.
