@@kirtjames1353I dunno. We've discovered thousands of exoplanets, and so far, NONE of them show potential for complex, intelligent life. I think there may be intelligent life somewhere in our galaxy; but the Drake Equation be damned, considering the HIGHLY specialized requirements we know of, from the one example we have, MY bet is that it's on fewer than 10 worlds in the whole galaxy. Maybe fewer than 5. We can't (yet) confirm even SIMPLE life on any of the thousands of planets we've found. You can bet that complex, intelligent life is gonna be MUCH rarer.

I don’t get why it would stun the world. It feels long overdue. There must be life out there and lots of it. You see life surviving here in some fairly inhospitable environments. It would be naive to think it was just us in a potentially infinite universe.

@officialinterstellarnews 25 дней назад

There are a lot of people who would adamantly deny any proof of alien life as it will directly conflict with their long held beliefs. But if we continue to discover bio signatures, eventually we’d find a way to confirm the presence of life elsewhere. Perhaps the average person is too cynical or desensitized right now for it to even phase them. But if there were to be true confirmation of life elsewhere in the universe, perhaps proof on moons of Jupiter or Saturn, then that will surely shift humanities universal perspective. Many will have trouble reconciling the fact that we aren’t alone. The change in humanity wouldn’t happen quickly but it would happen.

@terrynattress5262 25 дней назад

@@officialinterstellarnewsto add to what you're saying, it would be an even bigger stunner to find any kind of alien life in our own solar system. We're at the technological point now where we can send robots off to our sister planets and moons to collect and return samples. Some biolab physically presenting us with actual living alien organisms from a neighboring planet would be spectacularly huge. But let's say that JWST gives us data that would seem to 100% confirm life on some exoplanet light years away, that we can never reach, now, or in the foreseeable future. There's an abstract element to that, that many people will cling to. There could always be a shade of doubt. There might be some mistake in the observation, or the data, or a processing error that just hasn't been caught yet. There's always gonna be some wiggle room, some uncertainty in a very distant observation where data on paper are the only proof. But give us a living, physical specimen, even a microscopic one, and everything changes.

You know, every time I get a chance I go outside at night and just look up into the vastness of space, usually for about 15 to 30 minutes as i sit there and take it all in as i delve into the deep questions. Taking in that beauty of how small we are in this very very large universe is almost comforting, just looking at the expanse ahead of us i see humanity's future, a new frontier, a place of discovery and new wonders for us as a species. Every time I look at a star I hold unto that small hope that life is looking back at us somewhere out there and asking the same questions, feeling the same feelings and seeing a future for their people in the stars. I would recommend this to everyone, just go outside on a clear night away from too many pollutant light sources and take a good loooong look at the beauty of the Milky Way Galaxy and realize all of this is one small grain within a vast sea of sand and that's ok. Every life and every death, every dream and every thought has all taken place on this tiny tiny beautiful blue speck we call home, there's almost an infinite amount of other tiny specks, so how many possibilities are there? Even if there is no life in 99% of the universe that 1% that exists would still be there, which is why it is impossible that we will ever be truly alone out there. When we look into the stars we simply look back into ourselves, our existence as a people, and our hearts and minds.

The dude actually said that there is a chance of there being life, but it could take months of study of the data to be able to know more. There was no absolutes in his explanations, but he is hopeful. Also there are a huge number of Scientists out there trying to debunk any potential ideas of Alien life outside of Earth, and I can only conclude it's because they either don't want there to be life, or they are worried that any discoveries they have made, might be obsolete. All I know is that when we inevitably discover life, there will be a lot of textbooks that need replaced, and a lot of Scientists who are going to be bitter as all hell about it. I'm positive there is life out there, and it's only a matter of time until we find them. I consider the notion that we are alone based on us not being able to find them with our primitive means, to be raw hubris. Until then, all we can do is fantasize about what they might look like, and if they are like us where the entire species all have microvariations in appearance.

@officialinterstellarnews 25 дней назад

You made some valid points here. There’s absolutely a huge practice of denial of new evidence for the risk of being disproven. On some level, I can completely understand that feeling. When you’ve worked your whole professional career on something, it’s hard to just have it ripped away. You wrap a lot of your identity up in that. It’s just human nature to resist that. However, in my experience more come around than not. Younger generations are stepping in who have had the luxury of an ego reducing amount of information constantly available to them. I’m hopeful the bad actors will slowly decrease. But yes, he was very open about how early the research is and how cautious he is about the findings. But anytime I see a big deal made about early detections I get cautious about the motivations for the scientists. For now, I’m cautiously optimistic at best.

@wumbosaurus9121 25 дней назад

It's important to have opposing positions in the scientific field, it means that they require undeniable proof before something is confirmed, and the scientists trying to research the find cannot release every single discovery that might possibly have the tiniest chance for life. It's not necessarily that they "don't want there to be life," but that they want the researchers to find definitive information before anyone gets too excited.

This type of discovery would be great, but at the same time may also act as a distraction for the public from other matters. As long as the Pentagon is hiding and outright refusing to cooperate and be open with the public about what it keeps when it comes to the subject of UFOs and in various unexplained incidents, then it doesn't really matter. The Pentagon has refused to cooperate with the American Congress in the latest bi-partisan committee that was set to examine the claims by what appears to be legitimate testimonies about strange and unexplained incidents involving UFOs since the inquiry last year. The Congressmen and congresswomen who participated in the "closed sessions" can't say anything. So, are these attempts to verify the existence of microbes on an exoplanet more than 120 million lightyears away from us truly advance the "crux" of the matter? Which is finding not only the possible microbial life signs on other planets, but the undeniable proof of the existence of advanced life forms and advanced civilizations on other planets, not to mention the existence of various hospitable planets for life on Earth.

To be specific, when I first saw the data from back in September I didn’t think the DMS readings were much of anything. There was too much uncertainty there. I would have hesitated to even suggest anything of the sort until a second survey was done to confirm. However, it’s a part of science today. You gotta build hype to get anything done. It feels like a tactic to make these extended claims, despite very low levels of certainty, to make the case to get to use the JWST again for your project.

A team led by Nicholas Wogan (NASA Ames Research Center and University of Washington) tackled this question by applying two sets of models to the JWST data. The first set describes rocky planets with surface oceans, with and without life, and the second set describes gaseous planets without a surface and without life. The models predict the planet’s photochemistry - chemical reactions in the atmosphere driven by photons from the host star - and climate. Wogan’s team found that K2-18b is unlikely to be a lifeless water world, since this type of planet wouldn’t contain enough methane in its atmosphere to produce the signal seen in the JWST observations. Intriguingly, a water world with microbial life is more promising: acetotrophic methanotrophs - a tongue-twisting name for simple methane-producing organisms - may be able to produce the supply of methane seen in the planet’s atmosphere.

„unlikely“ - how unlikely? and could it be a world with volcanos, explaining the methane?

@shaunandrews1197 25 дней назад

What's interesting is the chemistry and carbon chemistry that goes on inside of PROPLYD's as the young star forms and pushes out the remaining material that will form planets and the other bodies around it, the diversity of molecules and chemical compounds is simply amazing for 1 example clouds of alcohol like immense clouds of the stuff exist in space and on Earth it's a byproduct of life so taking that into consideration this is an example of why not jumping to conclusions about certain molecules being made by lifeforms is a good thing but it also shows how seeding of planets that are in the goldilocks zone works and it shows the possibility of life forming is quite high if conditions are right.

@officialinterstellarnews 25 дней назад

Good point. One thing I didn’t mention, and I realize I should have, is that a lot of these detections could also be explained by how the photons from the star are interacting with the planet to create these signatures. It’s also likely these chemical signatures are not being produced by processes on the planet itself, but rather by photons from the star influencing these readings within the atmosphere.

Microbial life being found on another planet would be the biggest discovery in all of human history, actually. Because if there is a form of life on another planet, that would automatically mean that life CAN form on other planets, and going off of statistics, that'd mean space is more than likely teeming with life in every corner. In just our Milky Way galaxy alone there are hundreds of millions of planets that humans could theoretically live on.

I don't mean to ruin the party but although as exciting as this sounds, people need to be aware that this happens very often in science. There are numerous errors (both which we are and are not aware) regarding observational instruments, especially considering JWST was launched recently. This type of optimistic thinking has the potential to overlook mistakes, thus science rewards those who maintain themselves very skeptical. News media also don't do a great job sharing these news and confuse people with no formal background (or even formal sometimes) in STEM to believe life has been found.
