Welcome! "Alien Life" tracks the latest discoveries and thoughts in the various elements of the famous Drake Equation. Here's today's news:
g Abodes - A team of scientists has announced the discovery of a planet with three times the mass of Earth orbiting a nearby star at a distance that places it in the middle of the star’s “habitable zone.” This is the first Earth-like planet found in another solar system that could have the conditions necessary for life as we know it. See article
g Message - In his upcoming paper "What E.T. will look like and why should we care?" for the November-December issue of Acta Astronautica, Seth Shostak argues that SETI might be more successful if it shifts the search away from biology and focuses squarely on artificial intelligence. See article.
g Cosmicus - Scientists have determined that ESA's Rosetta mission needs to deliver its lander to a site in the southern hemisphere of comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko. A site in this region will be the safest and most scientifically interesting according to the recent study. See article.
g Learning - As a society, we're increasingly ignorant about science, and if that continues, it's going to cost us. See article. This article is from 2005.
