It appears that the scientist just wants to see her name published on the internet. Or, she wants to get promoted by her employer. The search for alien life is a headline I'll always click on. I can't think of many questions I'd rather know the answer to. Any sort of life would be fascinating but something we can talk to is what everyone wants really and this is the first step. "Something we can talk to?" You CAN talk to something as it's eating you, but that doesn't make the experience of being eaten any more pleasant. :-) My big fear is that if aliens exist, they'll turn out to be the alien version of early Christian explorers on Earth, and eager to convert us to their religion. Just what we need...more crazies talking about Xenu. :-) ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <no_re...@yahoogroups.com> wrote : ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <jr_esq@...> wrote : NASA scientist predicts it. Bold prediction, I think they should change it to: If it exists we'll be able to detect traces of it but we won't know what it's like. But can we actually communicate with them? That's another question. We won't know if it's evolved enough to be communicated with just from looking at the atmospheric traces they'll be able to see. And the speed of light rules out a quick chat even if we take the chance and beam them a Hello. But just knowing that there is any sort of complex life out there will be the most amazing discovery. If they don't discover any, that will also be interesting...
