NASA Researchers Find Evidence of Aliens in the Meteor

Scientists from NASA (National Space Agency of the United States), Richard B. Hoover, showed evidence of living things in the meteorites. Researchers from NASA's Marshall Flight Center claimed that he and his team found evidence of living creatures in the form of a rare fossilized bacteria, which live in outer space boulders of it.

As reported by CBSNews.com, Sunday, March 6, 2011, Hoover wrote that the evidence in a recent journal, Journal of Cosmogoly edition of March 2011. Hoover argued that the test results on nine collection of meteorites called Meteorite Carbonaceous CI1, it shows that there are bacteria that comes from the region of origin meteor.

"Filaments complex found in the CI1 Carbonaceous meteorites showed no bacterial microfossil 'natives' of cyanobacteria," Hoover said in his writings.

Cyanobacteria are blue-green bacteria that fall into the category Autotroph photosynthetic bacteria. He can produce their own food with the help of sunlight chemically.

According to Hoover, who found that the material detected as cyanobacteria are likely to show the existence of life outside the earth's living things. And Hoover did not dismiss that it was the final conclusions of the research.

Suddenly just this conclusion raises the pros and cons among scientists. However, this reinforces the conclusion Hoover evidence of extraterrestrial life. Having previously a number of experts assert that there is the element of water in the meteorite.

Meanwhile, News.com.au write, research by Hoover is only through a very simple process. Meteor stone was kept in a sterile place before the test. Tests conducted with the standard tools of researchers: an electron microscope and electron emission microscope.

As a result, Hoover discovered microorganisms whose fruits are not much different from one type of common bacteria on Earth. "The interesting thing is, the fossils were easily recognizable shape and type is very close to those in the earth," said Hoover.

NASA Research Life in Space

A nanosatelit no bigger than a pack of white bread and has a similar name with your favorite pastry children launched into space. By NASA, a mini satellite is tasked to study how the source of life took place in the universe.

O / Oreos, which launched the satellite name, an abbreviation of the Organism / Organic Exposure to Orbital Stresses. The satellite weighs at 5.4 pounds is the first nanosatellite which has two experimental tasks.

Experiments "Space Environment survivability of Live Organisms" will study the growth, health, and adaptability of microorganisms that live in a foreign environment and dry land. After O / Oreos reaches orbit, the experiment will give feedback and develop a group of microbes, and gauge their response to radiation and zero-gravity conditions.

In experiments, researchers will monitor whether those microbes continue to eat the right way. The nutrients that are provided have been given a color, so that, if they are healthy, they will change color.

A second experiment, titled "Space Environment viability of Organics" will monitor what happens to the four classes of organic molecules after they are exposed to outer space conditions. This experiment was designed to be able to survive for 6 months, and O / Oreos will be able to send data research for about a year.

With the launch of the above, NASA hopes to prove that the satellite will conduct experiments in space astrobiology can be done without the need to hold a research mission on the space station.

"We are trying to show that nanosatelit such as O / Oreos to meet the needs of researchers who have big ideas and important target," said Bruce Yost, O / Oreos Mission Manager Ames Research Center, NASA, as quoted by PopSci, 22 November 2010.

For orbits, O / Oreos boarded Air Force Minotaur IV rocket from Kodiak, Alaska. He began to transmit radio signals after reaching orbit about 640 kilometers from the Earth's surface. Once the mission is complete, O / Oreos also will become the first satellite that uses a mechanism without propellant to return to Earth.
