Simon Bar Sinister Posted December 1, 2010 Report Share Posted December 1, 2010 NASA is sure being cagey about tomorrow afternoon's press conference: http://www.nasa.gov/home/hqnews/2010/nov/HQ_M10-167_Astrobiology.html what do you think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nightgaunt Posted December 1, 2010 Report Share Posted December 1, 2010 We'll see. They've done this sort of thing countless times in the past and then either canceled the press conference/announcement or talked about something completely different. I'm not holding my breath, but I'm very interested to see what it's all about... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darknight1 Posted December 2, 2010 Report Share Posted December 2, 2010 Did they actually hold the conference this time or cancel it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaf The Horse With Tears Posted December 2, 2010 Report Share Posted December 2, 2010 Nope. What they announced was a new form of life here on Earth. Still a absolutly huge finding, but no, they did not find ET. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nightgaunt Posted December 3, 2010 Report Share Posted December 3, 2010 Not just a new form of life, but a life form that has no kinship with any other life form on the planet. The implications of this *are* huge. We now know that what was previously thought to be impossible - the incorporation of arsenic into DNA - is, in fact, possible. Titan, anyone?
