NASA's Hubble Space Telescope (HST) has made the first detection ever of an organic
molecule in the atmosphere of a Jupiter-sized planet orbiting another star. This
breakthrough is an important step in eventually identifying signs of life on a planet
outside our solar system.

  • The only people looking for extraterrestrial life out there are scientists. Everyone else has discovered it already. That report is living in her own little vacuum world, I think. Sorry but national news media are not very good sources for truthful information.

  • "Everyone else has discovered it already." Everyone has discovered extraterrestrial life. I assume you are talking about God, and Angels. Where have they discovered them? When did that move from Theory and faith to fact?To the best of my knowledge, no one has actually "found" extraterrestrial life yet.

  • imagewise, you are a dumbass. They are saying that the methane in the atmosphere contains a molecule that's vital to life, it has nothing to do with evolution.
