Alien life exists and could be found within 20 years, with enough funding, astronomers tell Congress
2014-05-22 19:37:42| Extremetech
Two of the world's preeminent extraterrestrial astronomers (as in, they research extraterrestrials, not that they're extraterrestrials themselves) have told US Congress that there is almost certainly alien life out there in the universe -- and with adequate funding, we should find that alien life within 20 years.
First living thing with alien DNA created in the lab: We are now officially playing God
2014-05-08 18:22:01| Extremetech
Scientists have succeeded in creating the first organism with 'alien' DNA. In normal DNA, which can be found within the genes of every organism , the twin strands of the double helix are bonded together with four bases, known as T, G, A, and C. In this new organism, the researchers added two new bases, X and Y, creating a new form of DNA that has never occurred in billions of years of evolution on Earth or elsewhere in the universe. Remarkably, the semi-synthetic alien organism continued to reproduce normally, preserving the new alien DNA during reproduction. In the future, this breakthrough should allow for the creation of highly customized organisms -- bacteria, animals, humans -- that behave in weird and wonderful ways that mundane four-base DNA would never allow.

Alarm over potentially harmful alien species in the UK

Blue and Green: A cross-party group of MPs have warned that the UK needs a clear strategy to contain invasive species from overseas, ahead of a vote by the European parliament on a possible blacklist for such animals and plantlife. The environmental audit committee has said in a report that non-native plants and animals are being brought to the UK through international trade and travel and that they are benefitting from a milder British climate. Chair of the committee Joan Walley MP said, Not all of these...

Curiosity spots artificial light source on Mars, but it probably isnt alien life
2014-04-09 15:02:41| Extremetech
Curiosity appears to have discovered... a Martian campfire. NASA, of course, says it's nothing of the sort -- rather than an indication of extraterrestrial life, it's probably just a bright spot caused by the sun reflecting off a rock, or errant cosmic radiation striking the camera's sensor. A prominent ufologist, however, claims that it's an artificial life source, and that "NASA could go and investigate it, but hey, they are not on Mars to discovery life, but there to stall its discovery."
