A specialist in astrobiology is making headlines this week because he says that he found alien life.

He is not referring to extra-terrestrial beings of the sort you might see in science fiction movies, but tiny, actually microscopic life forms that could be somewhere out there in the universe.

His research has created a lot of buzz amongst scientists and some people consider that he’s on to the discovery of the century.

As the implications are worked through, the possibility that there may be the existence of other beings more advanced than us is seriously fascinating.

Even if he may be right, although I have my doubts about it, you can bet your sweet bippy that everyone is gazing up at the heavens with just that much more curiosity.
