Question:
Do we know of any planets in other galaxies that we have found?

Replies:
No. That will require an improvement by a factor 1000 or more in the capabilities of our telescopes. The only other possibility is that such a planet is peopled by an intelligent and technologically advanced species and they send us a radio signal . . .
