The Vatican actually has astronomers and astrobiologists working for them already, this is not old news. They've said that the existence of extraterrestrials does not preclude a belief in God. Astrologist Father Gabriel Funes has said:

“Just like there is an abundance of creatures on earth, there could also be other beings, even intelligent ones, that were created by God. That doesn’t contradict our faith, because we cannot put boundaries to God’s creative freedom. As saint Francis would say, when we consider the earthly creatures to be our “brothers and sisters”, why couldn’t we also talk about a “extraterrestrial brother”? He would still be part of creation.”

I was raised Orthodox so I don't even recognize the pope as a person of power within the religion I was raised in, but these are the main go to guys for Catholics. To think out of the millions of galaxies there isn't some form of life out there is just naive.
