Plenty of Space,
Space, Is there life on other planets?
According to NASA Scientist Dr. Richard B. Hoover life from outer space exists. Dr. Richard B. Hoover is an astrobiologist at NASA’s Marshall’s space flight center. Dr. Richard B. Hoover’s work is published in the Journal of Cosmology, a peer reviewed scientific journal.
“I interpret it as indicating that life is more broadly distributed than restricted strictly to the planet earth,” Hoover, with more than 10 years studying meteorites around the world, told FoxNews.com in an interview. “This field of study has just barely been touched — because quite frankly, a great many scientist would say that this is impossible.”
Evidence of alien life was extracted from an extremely rare meteorite named Cl1 carbonaceous chondrites. (There are only nine of these meteorites known to exist on planet Earth.) Hoover found alien fossils of bacteria from breaking apart the meteorite. The exposed rock was then analyzed with a electron-scanning microscope. Inside the rock he found micro-organisms similar to what would be found on planet earth.
“The exciting thing is that they are in many cases recognizable and can be associated very closely with the generic species here on earth,” said Hoover. Some fossils looked odd. “There are some that are just very strange and doesn’t look like anything that I’ve been able to identify, and I’ve shown them too many other experts that have also come up stump.”
Hoover‘s evidence was made available to be studied by peers in the scientific community. Comments will be published online along with the study.
“Given the controversial nature of his discovery, we have invited 100 experts and have issued a general invitation to over 5,000 scientists from the scientific community to review the paper and to offer their critical analysis,” writes Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics scientist Dr. Rudy Schild, who is the Journal of Cosmology’s editor-in-chief. “No other paper in the history of science has undergone such a thorough vetting, and never before in the history of science has the scientific community been given the opportunity to critically analyze an important research paper before it is published.”
Having a source for solid evidence of life in outer space (if proven) would be in short order very revealing to our humanity. As humans we found the earth’s history in artifacts and fossils that have been unearthed and examined to tell a little piece of the story of earth. This could be a chance for the human race to stop looking for life in outer space with faint hope in a chance to examine alien life forms to being able to examine life from other planets.
