The depths of the ocean reveal an extraordinary collection of life forms whose bizarre adaptations make them appear almost alien. Anglerfish, for instance, are deep-sea predators known for their ...

Discover how scientists blend biology, synthetic biology, and astrobiology to speculate on alien life forms, focusing on the ...

The search for alien life could be boosted by a simple new test, say scientists. They believe the movement of microbes may ...

Scientists studying Saturn's icy moon, Enceladus, have discovered that its ocean forms layers that slow the upward movement ...

According to astronomers, there are approximately 200 billion trillion stars in our observable universe — chances are, ...

Researchers have long investigated what type of life exists beyond Earth and how we can find it. A new method focuses on looking for one of the most basic signs of living microbes – movement.

So, scientists tend to think that alien life exists, even in more advanced forms. These results are made even more significant by the fact that disagreement for all categories was low. For example ...

Searching for life in alien oceans may be more difficult than scientists previously thought, even when we can sample these ...

So, scientists tend to think that alien life exists, even in more advanced forms. These results are made even more significant by the fact that disagreement for all categories was low. For example ...

A new study focusing on Enceladus, a moon of Saturn, shows that the physics of alien oceans could prevent evidence of deep-sea life from reaching places where we can detect it.

When we turn to “complex” extraterrestrial life or “intelligent” aliens, our results were 67.4% agreement, and 58.2% agreement, respectively for astrobiologists and other scientists. So, scientists ...
