Impossible to comprehend the magnitude of the number of stars in that tiny slice of the universe.

Given the billions and billions (as the late Dr. Carl Sagan would say) of stars and planets out there, how could there not be life throughout the universe?

If God wills it, then there is.

[John Leland 1789]

When God created the universe, it did not necessarily have to be for life which existed on them in the past or does exist now. "Of the INCREASE of his government and peace there SHALL BE [future] NO END, upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, . . ." (Isaiah 9:7)

When Christ reigns from David's throne in Jerusalem and fulfills the Abrahamic covenant as well, when the seed of Abraham shall be as the stars of the heaven, and when Christ's own Body the Church shall also reign and be with Him forever, there shall be a never ending INCREASE of His kingdom for which he created and ordered His creation including what Hubble will never be able to see.

However, there are created beings in that second heaven now, also of the kind that Hubble is incapable of recording; an fallen angelic order, which will be removed.
