Some do. Some think maybe there are, maybe there aren't, but that our knowledge is complete and correct, so there's no way to travel between the stars. I'm not in either category, so... ;') Here's an old favorite quote that's actually pertinent (rare for me, eh?), luckily I found it online, I first heard it on the audiobook version of "Out There":

"Empty space is like a kingdom, and earth and sky are no more than a single individual person in that kingdom. Upon one tree are many fruits, and in one kingdom there are many people. How unreasonable it would be to suppose that, besides the earth and the sky which we can see, there are no other skies and no other earths." -- Teng Mu, a Chinese scholar of the Sung Dynasty (960 -- 1280 A.D.) *
