Your speculation raises some interesting questions. If there are sentient beings on other worlds how would they be redeemed? Would they need their own versions of Jesus or would his sacrifice on our world save them on theirs?
The well-known Jonathan Edwards (1703-1758) asserts that Jesus Christ remains still in his humanity. The Incarnate Jesus God-Man became a human and has remained that way.

Though Christ be now at the right-hand of God, exalted as King of heaven, and Lord of the universe; yet as he still is in the human nature, he still excels in humility. Though the man Christ Jesus be the highest of all creatures in heaven, yet he as much excels them all in humility as he doth in glory and dignity; for none sees so much of the distance between God and him as he does. - Edwards, J. (2008). The works of Jonathan Edwards (Vol. 1, p. 685), The Excellency of Christ.

Just because you lost your belief in God don't make you disbelief valid.... 2Peter 3:3 knowing this first: that scoffers will come in the last days, walking according to their own lusts, 4 and saying, “Where is the promise of His coming? For since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of creation.” 5 For this they willfully forget: that by the word of God the heavens were
of old, and the earth standing out of water and in the water,

Jonathan Edwards was an interesting character who carried the title of "America's most important and original philosophical theologian" in his day. He's, of course, associated with America's 'First Great Awakening' which was somewhat unique in that it was focused on people who were already church members unlike the subsequent 'Second Great Awakening' which began about 1800 and reached out to the unchurched.

And God's still saving sinners who want what He's offering. Here's a real world example. I chopped it up with him face to face once in the back room of a church before he gave his testimony. Check it out:
