News Extra Terrestiral Life 16-MAY-08 en-us London (AFP) May 14, 2008 - The British government recorded reports of alien craft flying over Liverpool and a UFO hovering over Waterloo Bridge in London, it was revealed in declassified files released on Wednesday.]]> ]]> Tokyo (AFP) May 12, 2008 - The human race will find life elsewhere in the universe as it pushes ahead with space exploration, astronauts back from the latest US space mission said Monday.]]> Mountain View, Calif. (UPI) May 7, 2008 - U.S. scientists, searching for signs of life from faraway planets, are building hundreds of radio telescopes in Northern California, their leader says.]]> Moffett Field CA (SPX) Apr 30, 2008 - The opening speaker at the 2008 Astrobiology Science Conference, Lord Martin Rees of the University of Cambridge, said that our universe may just be one of many. Multiple universes could be stacked sideways like sheets of paper, separated by only a thin margin of space. We would never know they were there unless we could be awakened to the existence of that other dimension.]]> ]]> Norwich, UK (SPX) Apr 18, 2008 - Is there anybody out there? Probably not, according to a scientist from the University of East Anglia. A mathematical model produced by Prof Andrew Watson suggests that the odds of finding new life on other Earth-like planets are low, given the time it has taken for beings such as humans to evolve and the remaining life span of Earth.]]> Moffett Field CA (SPX) Apr 15, 2008 - Advanced ground and space-based telescopes are discovering new planets around other stars almost daily, but an environmental scientist from England believes that even if some of those planets turn out to be Earth-like, the odds are very low they'll have intelligent inhabitants. In a recent paper published in the journal Astrobiology, Professor Andrew Watson of the University of East Anglia describes an improved mathematical model for the evolution of intelligent life as the result of a small number of discrete steps.]]> Moffett Field CA (SPX) Apr 01, 2008 - There are many fascinating places in our solar system to explore, but space missions are dangerous and expensive. Sending robots instead of people helps reduce these drawbacks. For this kind of exploration, Professor Bernard Foing looks to the Moon, Mars and beyond, hoping to discover tantalising secrets useful to astrobiologists.]]> ]]> Houston TX (JSC) Mar 28, 2008 - Could microbial life exist inside Enceladus, where no sunlight reaches, photosynthesis is impossible and no oxygen is available? To answer that question, we need look no farther than our own planet to find examples of the types of exotic ecosystems that could make life possible on Saturn's geyser moon. The answer appears to be, yes, it could be possible. It is this tantalizing potential that brings us back to Enceladus for further study.]]> New Rochelle NY (SPX) Feb 28, 2008 - In the event that an asteroid or comet would impact Earth and send rock fragments containing embedded microorganisms into space, at least some of those organisms might survive and reseed on Earth or another planetary surface able to support life, according to a study published in the Spring 2008 (Volume 8, Number 1) issue of Astrobiology, a peer-reviewed journal published by Mary Ann Liebert.]]> Boston, Massachusetts (AFP) Feb 17, 2008 - Planets resembling Earth can be found orbiting many sun-like stars in our galaxy, increasing the prospects of finding extraterrestial life on some of them, according to a study released Sunday.]]> ]]> ]]> Moffett Field CA (SPX) Feb 19, 2008 - Using the giant dish at Arecibo, Puerto Rico, radio astronomers have discovered evidence of hydrogen cyanide and methanimine, two carbon compounds that can combine with water to make the amino acid glycine. Because proteins are composed of amino acids, the new results make distant space seem a bit more hospitable to life.]]> Moffet Field CA (SPX) Jan 22, 2008 - Nigel Mason is director of research at the Centre of Molecular and Optical Science at the Open University in the UK. One of the Centre's main focuses of study is on Astrobiology, specifically on determining how simple molecules such as methane, ammonia or water found in the interstellar medium can be transformed into the building blocks of biochemistry.]]> Voronezh, Russia (RIA Novosti) Jan 18, 2008 - Cockroaches conceived in space onboard the Russian Foton-M bio satellite have developed faster and become hardier than 'terrestrial' ones, a research supervisor said on Thursday. The research team has been monitoring the cockroaches since they were born in October. The scientists established that their limbs and bodies grew faster.]]> Advertise in this newsletter or website click for advertising kit - PDF File
