IS LIFE BEYOND EARTH

POSSIBLE??
EXTRA TERRESTRIAL
LIFE
Extraterrestrial life-is life that does not originate from Earth. It
is also called alien life, or, if it is a sentient and/or relatively
complex individual, an "extraterrestrial" or "alien" (or, to avoid
confusion with the legal sense of "alien", a "space alien").
These as yet hypothetical forms of life range from
simple bacteria-like organisms to beings far more complex
than humans. The possibility that viruses might exist
extraterrestrially has also been proposed.
FINDING LIFE
BEYOND EARTH
Many scientists believe we are not alone in the universe. It's
probable, they say, that life could have arisen on at least
some of the billions of planets thought to exist in our
galaxy alone -- just as it did here on planet Earth. This basic
question about our place in the Universe is one that may be
answered by scientific investigations. What are the next
steps to finding life elsewhere?
Experts from NASA and its partner institutions addressed
this question on July 14, at a public talk held at NASA
Headquarters in Washington. They outlined NASA's
roadmap to the search for life in the universe, an ongoing
journey that involves a number of current and future
telescopes.
The James Webb Space Telescope (background) will be one of
the primary instruments scientists use to continue the
search for planets outside our Solar System.
