We believe in something that has happened elsewhere just as it's happened on our own planet.
My logic is fine, but for you, I'll put it in to a much simpler reasoning:
1) I can't see any fish where I'm stood in the ocean
2) Therefore, fish don't exist in the ocean
Is this deductive conclusion a fair conclusion? I've not studied the rest of the ocean, yet I've arrived at a conclusion just from the small area of the ocean that I am in.
Or how about this:
I have a 100 sided dice. The probability of rolling a 1 is 1 in 100, or 1% chance. After a few rolls I eventually roll a 1. I've now proved it's possible to roll a 1, despite only that 1% chance. If I roll the dice again I'm certain I could roll another 1.
