"This helps future missions interpret what they find and better understand where to look for signs of habitability."
Microbes from space have fueled the plots of science fiction mainstays like "Project Hail Mary" and "The Andromeda Strain." But with more space missions launching each year, findin...
In the early 1970s, two gold plaques were launched into deep space aboard Pioneer 10 and Pioneer 11, each engraved with a message from humankind to any extraterrestrial life that m...
Как насчёт поисков внеземной жизни всерьёз? Отложим на время разговоры о зондах высокоразвитых цивилизаций и недостроенных сферах Дайсона; нас и внеземная бактерия обрадует. Вот ва...
In searches for past and present Martian life, some scientists say we’ve been too cautious to see what’s right in front of us
In a major milestone in the search for life on other planets, astronomers have detected, for the first time, an atmosphere surrounding an Earth-like, rocky planet orbiting within t...
The origin of life has fascinated humanity throughout history. Myths, religions and philosophies have all sought to explain how living beings came into existence, often blending fa...
Earth’s oldest eukaryotic fossils may illuminate both the rise of complex life and the search for life elsewhere. Searching for life on Mars or the icy moons Europa and Enceladus m...
Astrobiology has long been split into two camps: a search for "biosignatures" and a search for "intelligence." These look for very different things, but they also leave a huge gap...
Some signs of an alien civilization are easier to spot than signs of life itself. On technosignatures, from CFCs and industrial gases to the pandemic dip in pollution, and why Eart...

"We think all of the really important, essential ingredients are there." The post Astronomers Thrilled After Discovering Best Spot Yet to Look for Alien Life appeared first on Futu...
AI is a powerful tool in scientific research. It can be used to find patterns in vast quantities of data. But it also generates false positives, as most of us know. This is an "Ach...
Astronomers may have already scanned millions of more stars than they thought, a realization that might lead to new ways to hunt for extraterrestrial radio signals.
In 1976, NASA's Viking 1 lander found strong "life affirmation" results in a Martian soil sample. Robert Jastrow, then director of NASA's Goddard Institute for Space Studies, said,...
Scientists are searching some of Earth’s oldest rocks for tiny fossils that could reveal how simple microbial life made the extraordinary leap toward plants, animals, and other com...
Claims about possible extraterrestrial life on K2-18b and Mars generated worldwide excitement, but a survey of hundreds of astrobiologists found that most experts remained cautious...
Are we alone in the universe? For scientists working on NASA's proposed Habitable Worlds Observatory, that question is no longer purely philosophical. It is increasingly becoming a...
For a world to maintain an atmosphere long enough for life to gain a foothold, it seems it needs to be at least as big as Mars.
Before any major telescope commissioning, there are dozens of papers that attempt to define what we can expect from it. We’re starting to see some come through for the Extremely La...
A £3 million investment could help secure a leading UK role in NASA’s future search for life on nearby planets. An Earth-like planet orbiting a nearby star would appear as little m...
Between biosignatures and technosignatures lie noosignatures, and some scientists think they could help us find alien life someday.
New research suggests AI can be repeatedly fooled into mistaking non-life for life.
