Are you excited to know that a top NASA scientist said
that we are definitely going to find alien life sooner than we ever thought - that is, in 20-30 years! ​Or aren't you?
That was said during a NASA panel discussion
last April 7 by Ellen Stofan, a top NASA scientist and a former astronaut John Grunsfeld, who is now associate administrator for NASA's Science Mission Directorate said that we are very close to finding alien life maybe on the red planet Mars or on an icy moon around some planet in our very own solar system, and also beyond which is a much bigger place, there maybe more life-sustaining environments out there. Recent discoveries point to Jupiter's moons Europa and Ganymedeand Saturn's Enceladus, that beneath their icy shelves there are oceans of liquid water. And in the ancient past, Mars was covered by oceans and what is now observed as seasonal dark streaks in its surface maybe caused by salty water from the oceans before. Alien life is not just about human-like creatures, it can be something microscopic, or insect-like or anything that's alive. It's exciting to note that after looking at the vastness of the universe, we can finally say that it's not a waste of space after all! And we are only looking at a tiny fraction, how much the entirety of the universe! There's got to be zillions and zillions of creatures living in environments different from ours. Life on earth is unique and life in other places in the universe is unique too. I believe no two are alike. No planet can duplicate life on earth and the earth can't do the same. You know here on earth, there's still so much to explore and discover. The rain forests in many parts of the world are left unchartered, and even the oceans are still mysterious because we know so little about the living beings and creatures living in the deep. And thinking about the whole universe, what more can I say? No matter how long we live on earth or how many lifetimes we are given, we will only know just a bit, like a drop of water in the ocean or a tiny speck of dust in the planet. It will surely take us forever to know what's out there! God The Almighty never gives us the ability to fully know and understand his creation. We must stand in awe of Him all the time and forever!
