NASA: Proof of alien life in 20 years

A chief NASA scientist predicts that we will have "definitive evidence" of life outside our planet in 20-30 years.

[eotg]

Extraterrestrial life has been here before recorded history.

[doodelay]

I think we'll find more than just microbes within one of or solar system's oceans. I'm betting for life at least the size of a jellyfish

[digiprez]

...and the majority of people on earth will still believe in all kinds of crazy religious stuff.

[ckjf]

Still asking us "are we alone?!" U serious?!?! Who ever think like that is (frog in a well ) ... 10 to 20 years ??? Come on..! They know, they have proof.

[autorog]

they have known there is life on mars since the mid 70's, the lander found organics then

[opaldeadventureersubscribe]

It's not "if" life exists elsewhere, we already know life exists outside of our planet, it's more so when will we be contacted by the other life or when will our government open up about the contact they have already received...

[Steadno]

10 to 20 to 30 years... Microbes?... Boring!

[octaviusdelmonte]

LoL... where do they get their timetable. This implies they already know something.

[lawrencestanley]

If only more people in NASA would read Deuteronomy 4:32-40, then we could direct more money to proper space endeavors instead of the boondoggle of searching for life out there...

I didn’t know Barbara Streisand was a scientist.

I dont think there are life in our solar system, but i think there are quadrillions of other species in our galaxy. Some of the intelligent, and some may be living on thousands or millions of planets that they colonized. Some life from the Milky Way may have left the Milky Way and are living and one or more galaxies.

They already know the truth but its called baby steps...

[krzysztofflorek]

There was life on Mars, it even reached Earth. Evidence of this statement can be seen on the cover of the book Obcy w epoce kamienia (Aliens in the Stone Age). It consists of two photographs of fragments of the surface of the message left by someone who was not human.

Can't wait for Alien Invasion lol.. ;)

[dekurvajo]

I would be more careful with a statement like this. Remember SETI? we all thought the same back then.

[lobopumpchainsavage]

Im pretty sure a math equation would tell you that there's life outside earth undeniable proof is just a desired factor here follwed by common sense and logic so a detailed map of the universe is very hard to map for many reasons

[Twist_UAP]

We need to make friends with other beings no one cares about microbes that would suck

[beginization]

Finely some open minded people working at NASA, how many years have atheists like Dawkins or Shermer mocked people for believing life could exist elsewhere, they were waiting for proof before looking which is a silly idea

[ewrgaming]

What the fuck does CNN know about anything?

[stuhall]

Well we are still waiting and 5 years have past
