The finding shows that oxygen can be generated in space without the need for life, and could influence how researchers search for signs of life on exoplanets.
| In 2015, scientists announced the detection molecular oxygen at Comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko, which was studied by the Rosetta spacecraft. It was the “biggest surprise of the mission,” they said — a discovery that could change our understanding of how the solar system formed. | By Nancy Atkinson Seeker.com 5-10-17 |
Conspiracy theorists believe that NASA has been in cahoots with the little green men for decades – and yesterday the wilder parts of the internet went (even more) nuts.
