Welcome! "Alien Life" tracks the latest discoveries and thoughts in the various elements of the famous Drake Equation.

g Abodes -Mars may have water underground but exactly where it is located is not known. An instrument on the Mars Science Laboratory will use neutrons to help spy for the water. See article.
g Life - New research shows that minerals on Earth have co-evolved with life. Up to two thirds of known minerals can be linked to biological activity, highlighting the important connection between the biosphere and the geology of Earth. See article.
g Message - Humans have debated the best ways to contact our interstellar neighbors for centuries. Here’s an article retracing that history.
g Imagining -The answers showed that science fiction not only reflects science but is also an inspiration for it. See article.
