NATS 1880 Lecture 1: Universe of Life 1.1
Document Summary
There is no clear evidence yet for life beyond earth. To begin this search, we are looking for life we would recognise, carbon, organic molecules and protein based life. However there can be other form of life, but we need to start from somewhere. Life beyond earth is an old theme but had little factual basis until recently. Planet outside of our solar system that orbits a star. The ancient belief earth is the centre of entire universe. World that have the ingredients and conditions that are necessary for life. Sometimes i think we"re alone in the universe, and sometimes i think we"re not. In either case, the idea is quite staggering.
