Welcome! "Alien Life" tracks the latest discoveries and thoughts in the various elements of the famous Drake Equation. Here's today's news:
g Stars - The universe's best real estate for life may be around stars a little less massive than the sun, called orange dwarfs, according to a new analysis. These stars live much longer than sun-like stars, and have safer habitable zones – where liquid water can exist – than those of lighter red dwarf stars. See article.
g Abodes - Finding moons around extrasolar planets is an invigorating quest. After all, at least three moons around gas giants right here in our own system — Europa, Enceladus and Titan — are considered of high astrobiological interest. What about gas giants in the habitable zone of some distant star? See article.
g Life - Scientists have discovered an ancient protein preserved in the 80 million-year-old bones of a dinosaur. The protein will provide scientists with a truly unique look into the evolutionary history of life on our planet. See article.

Great site. Completely agree with everything this site represents. I also await when the truth of alien life emerges. Soon... Very soon. LDeadRocker74@yahoo .com
Thanks for the kind words, Ryan. The recent news that Kepler has found a potential 706 new alien worlds (in just 43 days of watching two constellations) only strengthens the statistical likelihood of ET if not ETI.
