Not just little green men: Alien life may also come in the form of viruses – will our astronauts be prepared?

February 20, 2018 -

“Viruses arguably have coexisted with cellular life-forms since the earliest stages of life, may have been directly involved therein, and have profoundly influenced cellular evolution,” the researchers wrote in their paper, published in Astrobiology. “Viruses are the only entities on modern Earth to use either RNA or DNA in both single- and double-stranded forms for their genetic material and thus may provide a model for the putative RNA-protein world.”

As such, the ...

Alien surveillance? Physicist says alien life forms may have bugged space objects to observe Earth

January 27, 2021 -

James Benford, a physicist and independent search for extraterrestrial intelligence (SETI) researcher, posited the idea in a paper published in the Astronomical Journal. In his report, he said that man should at least take a look at the Earth’s co-orbitals, just to see if extraterrestrial intelligence (ETI) planted advanced technology on space rocks to monitor Earth. Co-orbitals are space objects that orbit the sun at about the same distance as the Earth.

"They're basically ...

NASA to announce evidence of “alien life,” says Anonymous

October 27, 2017 - alien life forms be intelligent like we are, or would they be less intelligent animals or organisms? If they were like us, would they be pleased to know that we discovered them, or would conflict ensue? Would they be interested in helping us advance our civilization, or would they be interested in destroying it?

One of the world’s most outspoken cosmologists on the topic of alien life is none other than Stephen Hawking, who has recently warned that alien life might ...

Theoretical physicist says contacting alien life is a terrible idea

July 09, 2021 - alien life forms may have bugged space objects to observe Earth.)

The Aztec Empire was eventually destroyed by the Spanish so Kaku may have concerns for the future of humanity. "Now, personally, I think that aliens out there would be friendly but we can't gamble on it. So I think we will make contact but we should do it very carefully," Kaku said.

The Hubble Space Telescope is Earth's most famous piece of technology to see space, but the JWST is 100 times more ...

Mars may harbor alien life beneath its surface, study suggests

April 28, 2021 -

"The big implication here for subsurface exploration science is that wherever you have groundwater on Mars, there's a good chance that you have enough chemical energy to support subsurface microbial life," said Jesse Tarnas, a postdoctoral researcher at the National Aeronautics and Space Administration's (NASA) Jet Propulsion Laboratory, who led the study as a doctoral student at Brown University.

"We don't know whether life ever got started beneath the surface of Mars, ...

European governments launch project to confirm presence of alien life

July 03, 2017 -

PLATO's primary goal is to gain more knowledge about a large number of exo-planetary systems that are located within the habitable zone and may potentially accommodate life. The project also aims to determine the properties of terrestrial planets that orbit in the habitable zone around sun-like stars. This will help astronomers gain better understanding of how the universe works. Aside from this, the initiative was designed to examine the seismic movements of stars. This in turn ...

Possible biosignatures detected on Exoplanet K2-18b, raising hopes for alien life

April 19, 2025 -

Astronomers have announced the strongest evidence yet for extraterrestrial life after detecting traces of two Earth-biosphere signatures in the atmosphere of the exoplanet K2-18b, a planet 124 light-years away. Using NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), researchers observed chemical fingerprints suggesting the presence of dimethyl sulfide (DMS) and its cousin dimethyl disulfide (DMDS)—molecules produced almost exclusively by living organisms on Earth....

Evidence of alien life could be made public next month, says filmmaker

October 17, 2024 -

This is according to filmmaker Simon Holland, who has worked on documentaries for the BBC and National Aeronautics and Space Administration-funded projects. He said that an Oxford University-supported program searching for extraterrestrial signals has quietly identified "non-human intelligence in our galaxy." (Related: NASA scientist is “absolutely certain” there is ALIEN LIFE in the universe.)

The signal, which was a five-hour-long burst of radio waves, appeared to ...

NASA scientist is “absolutely certain” there is ALIEN LIFE in the universe

August 29, 2023 -

Michelle Thaller, a research scientist working at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Maryland, said during an interview with the U.S. Sun that she believes there is alien life hiding out there.

"I definitely think we’ll find life on another planet. I think that in our own solar system, we’re quite close to it, but once again we don’t have that 100 percent thing," said Thaller. "On Mars, we see chemistry that on Earth if it were here, we would say is due to life. But ...

NASA will find alien life in the next 25 years, experts predict

June 07, 2023 -

These same experts said that the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) launched by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) helped pave the way for gathering more information on distant worlds. (Related: We may finally find ALIENS by 2026, thanks to NASA's new space telescope.)

According to Sasha Quanz, an astrophysicist from the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, aliens will be verified in two and a half decades.

Alien life may exist in Jupiter’s moon Europa and other frozen worlds

June 07, 2018 -

Europa is one of the many moons of Jupiter. It is known as an ice world, along with its fellow satellites Callisto and Ganymede, and their Saturnian counterparts Enceladus and Titan. Their entire surface is covered by water, which is masked by a thick layer of ice.

The oceans of the Earth are mostly kept warm and liquid by heat from the Sun. But Europa and the other moons are too far from our solar system's primary star.

Instead, the heat that keeps their global ...

Alien life could exist BELOW the surface of Mars, shocked scientists discover

October 19, 2017 -

The UK's Express reports:

Dr Dougan, from the University of Leeds’ School of Physics and Astronomy and the Astbury Centre said of the research published in the journal Nature Communications: "The discovery of significant amounts of different perchlorate salts in Martian soil gives new insight into the Martian 'riverbeds.'" 

Dr. Dougan explains that the temperatures on Mars are extremely low; the surface temperature may reach a high of about 20° Celsius (68° F) ...

NASA’s Perseverance finds “leopard spots” on Mars that may prove alien life existed

September 11, 2025 -

For decades, the question of whether life ever existed on Mars has tantalized scientists and truth-seekers alike. Now, NASA’s Perseverance rover may have delivered the most compelling answer yet—one buried in 3.7-billion-year-old rocks from an ancient riverbed. The discovery, announced Wednesday, reveals strange mineral formations nicknamed "poppy seeds" and "leopard spots" that could be the fossilized remnants of microbial life. Yet thanks to bureaucratic ...

Jupiter’s Europa may have pockets of water that could support alien life – study

May 24, 2021 -

Europa, the fourth largest of Jupiter's moons, has high odds of being habitable. Past studies suggest that an ocean of liquid water lurks beneath Europa's 15-mile-thick frozen crust. This extraterrestrial ocean contains salts that prevent water from turning into ice, which makes it ideal for life.

There is evidence of recent geological formations within Europa's crust, including small, dark, dome-like features called lenticulae. Discovered by the National Aeronautics and ...

Change your thinking: Why prepping is a form of life and health insurance

October 11, 2018 -

Though they provide coverage for different risks, basically all insurance boils down to one thing: The client pays an insurance company an annual lump sum or monthly amount to protect them against the risk of a certain thing happening (e.g. the risk that your house might burn down). If the insured event never takes place, the insurance company just gets to keep the premiums, but if disaster does strike, the company will pay the client out a predetermined amount of money to ...

Scientists discover microbes in harsh deep-sea environments – is this evidence of alien life?

January 04, 2021 -

"We found chemical evidence of the organisms' use of organic material in the sediment that allows them to survive," said co-author and oceanographer Arthur Spivack of the University of Rhode Island.

The findings confirm that life does exist in such deep-ocean ecosystems and hints at the possibility of alien life on other planets, where brutal conditions are comparable to those in harsh Earth environments.Evidence of life in deep ocean environments

Study: Alien life may exist in 5 known solar systems with two or more stars

April 25, 2021 -

"Life is far most likely to evolve on planets located within their system's habitable zone, just like Earth," said Nikolaos Georgakarakos, a professor at New York University Abu Dhabi  and the lead researcher of the study. "We show for the first time that Kepler-34, -35, -64, -413 and especially Kepler-38 are suitable for hosting Earth-like worlds with oceans."

One of those star systems has four stars orbiting one another at the system's center. The rest, which are called ...
