The Bible is about Jesus, not a science textbook about the universe.
Would you pick a calculus book and ask it about the oceans?

Seems to me it about both. After all God did speak the universe into existence by his Word Jesus. I reckon he has the science. Maybe I am wrong though.
If you are referring to something related to "aliens" the scriptures mention the Watchers/ Nephilim. However there are no "aliens" as we are told by this world, they are demons. If this world ever acknowledged aliens as demons they would have to also acknowledge the existence of God.

What about when all the morning stars sang for the glory of God?
Job 38:7
[SUP]7 [/SUP]When the morning stars sang together, and all the sons of God shouted for joy?
That is a good question. personally I would not be surprised if there was life other than the planet earth. I mean god created the entire ever expanding universe with over trillions of planets and your telling me earth is the only planet out of that number of planets that has intelligent life?
Sorry I don't buy it I mean you have a better chance of winning the lottery a million times in one life time than for that to be true and you know the odds of winning the lottery right? I have done research on the subject of aliens in my studying bible prophecy and it lead me to the Egyptians. Now the Egyptians had knowledge far beyond their years for instance the Pyramids were not only created by means that were unknown the civilization of the world at that time but they were also made to align almost perfectly with Orions belt and in many of the ancient tablets from that time there were many paintings of beings they worshiped and got advice and teachings from that very much resemble the image of aliens we think of today you know enlarged head big black or glowing beady eyes human like bodies and some of them even having six arms ect.
I don't know if it was demons or aliens but the Egyptians clearly had some kind of encounter to give them the knowledge to do something that we ourselves can only just now be able to do with the advancement of technology

Closest thing to it would be in the book of Job...
Job 1:6 Now there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the Lord, and Satan also came among them.
7And the Lord said to Satan, “From where do you come?”
So Satan answered the Lord and said, “From going to and fro on the earth, and from walking back and forth on it.”
8Then the Lord said to Satan, “Have you considered My servant Job, that there is none like him on the earth, a blameless and upright man, one who fears God and shuns evil?”
In verse 6 it is a gathering/meeting and Adam was considered a son of God and had originally been created to be in charge of this earth.... he fell into sin and Satan came instead to this gathering.... So verse says sons of God which would mean more than one and I believe there are more created beings than just earth.... not aliens so to speak but this is as close as you will get to the other world thing. I know some versions interpret it to be angels but the verse clearly says sons of God of which Adam was.

You have the option on forums to not post if you do not have an answer to the question that was asked.
Humanity is the crowning event of creation, I do believe that "ALIENS" so called are either demons and or fallen angels.....my view...the bible is somewhat silent concerning life else where.....a study of the word chariot applied unto the angels, Gods throne, Elijah's flaming chariot etc. reveals some interesting facts....at the end of the day...we can scarcely take care of our own rear ends and have a difficult enough time understanding what we have been given....if they exist...and a big IF......God chose to keep it hidden from man......
The what IF game....can never be won without hard facts and evidence.....demonic forces would taint all evidence to be proof positive it would seem.......
The flip side of the coin.....IF man was going to be interacting with ALIENS and they were going to SHOW UP....surely GOD would have given instructions.......

Have you ever checked out the Disclosure Project evidence? Headed by Dr. Stephen Greer and funded by the Rockefeller family. This testimony should certainly make the hair stand up on the back of your neck:
[video=youtube;XQl7t62q71o]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XQl7t62q71o[/video]
Here are multiple testimonies -- VIDEO. Start at the 15:24 mark. Up to that point on the video, Greer drones on and on with his "New Age" explanations for these phenomena.
I do believe the Bible 'suggests' that He has sprinkled (holy, unfallen) beings all across the universe.
And here's another thing -- in the Olivet Discourse (Matthew 24/Mark 13/Luke 22) Jesus says the angels will "gather the elect from the four winds and from one end of the heavens to the other".
In other words, the saints who have gone on before us are apparently dwelling across the far-flung universe (i.e. God's kingdom) for the time being. Later we move into the newly completed New Jerusalem (which hovers or rests upon Mt. Zion on a 'new' earth') at the end of the age...a city which Jesus referred to when He said "I go to prepare a place for you".
Also, we have a hint in Job 1:6, when the "angels" (referred to as "the sons of God' in this passage) are said to gather before God's throne only occasionally.
The indication in Job 1 is that these beings come from elsewhere to meet before God's throne. And where might that be? Well...one of these beings, Satan, reported that he had just traveled from earth...where he had been zipping around the place. Earth and proximity apparently are his "turf". Hence, we have the above videos.
A scripture that may potentially apply here: Jesus said "God is not the God of the dead, but of the living" (Mark 12:27).
In other words, I don't think it is biblically reasonable to think that God creates a vast universe-wide kingdom...and then simply presides over deads rocks floating through space. We see from the "Adam and Eve" scenario that it has pleased God to create intelligent beings who are made in His image...to then place them in a 'habitat'...and then stand back and watch them create, develop and (as He instructed Adam and Eve) domesticate their world.
Creation scientist, Dr. Henry Morris states: "Thus there is a host of stars without number in the heavens and also an innumerable angelic host of heaven. The latter apparently inhabit the former and are thus, in both Scripture and mythology, intimately inter-related."
The Bible says the numbers of these "angels" (could we call them simply "non-human" or super-human?) are "innumerable" (Hebrews 12:22). Where do they reside? What do they do with themselves? Well...God has created a kingdom and it seems biblically-based common sense to believe that He has "subjects" for His kingdom. Again, I don't think God has created a vast kingdom of...dead, floating rocks.
Just a few thoughts.

Now when you talk about Aliens do you mean a being from another planet? What we recongize as something that flew here from another planet? Thanks for the comment by the way, i found it interesting.
