Of course there will be more news on this over at NASA as well as on Tv

Interesting to note one of our own from LM1's Professor David Rothery gets a mention here above...

"If we knew that life had started independently in two places in our Solar System, then we could be pretty confident that life also got started on some of the tens of billions of planets and moons around other stars in our galaxy.”

I don't think David has been watching those NASA Space Shuttle Missions over the years well unless ALL those things up there were ours?
I would LOVE to hear his thoughts on those shapes & structures as seen on PLUTO & MARS? as a geologist surely he would have the answers & although one might expect such folks to say NO there is nothing it! HOW CAN THEY? when they LOOK like THIS! so I would hope he could explain WHY THEY ARE NOT WHAT HE WOULD ALMOST CERTAINLY CLAIM are ROCKS & OTHER GEOLOGY.

I think his statement here though will be well proven in years to come as many scientists when questioned in a Horizon programme (I think it was) had expected to find intelligent life within 20 years with some saying it could be far sooner...this news will be released with regards to a far off Earth like Planet light years away so as NOT to scare folks! in reality they probably already know but with that new telescope heading up there next year (2018) it would not shock me if it was announced around this time or a year or two later (2018-2020 anyone?)

I am still AMAZED that Professor Brian Cox is still saying....we might be the only one's here & it's likely that there is no such life within our galaxy!
As I previously said I think Brian is in for one hell of a surprise (hopefully realised in his / our lifetimes)

This NEWS might perhaps be part of the slow (VERY SLOW) feed into public consciousness as I cannot believe that NASA doesn't ALREADY KNOW ABOUT THIS & that intelligent life is very likely close by.

Professor Nick Brostom (on Newsnight tonight) is another like Brian Cox...THERE is NO LIFE out there, NO intelligent life out there, you can FORGET IT! we shouldn't even search for it BLAH BLAH BLAH.

A professor like this ONLY MAKES ME SMILE Ta-Dah

We are a part of this Universe & THERE is INTELLIGENT LIFE out there who probably already know about us & we are GOING TO MEET THEM SOONER or LATER (if Russia, America, Syria, North Korea & China don't END IT all for us) So Time to Get with the Programme on where we Live & Those who know about us (probably) & hopefully one day one's who we shall be dealing with....Geezzz

I really do think that since DAY 1 when we (HUMANS) showed up they have know about us...in fact it may well be they put us here it's NOT so impossible! and this frankly BS spoken about they could never get to us annoys the hell out of me...
They could be not just thousands of years more advanced than us but possibly millions & with many of these outer galaxies apparently moving away from us at an even greater speed who's to say they haven't developed incredible machines / devices to search the entire universe for life & have the abilty to get here (they may even be from other dimensions we know nothing about)

THIS was GOOD NEWS to hear anyway, but not surprising (BIGGER things lie in wait to be confirmed) and I do think they'll also find LIFE on 'EUROPA' a MOON of Jupiter which might be even more exciting? and also an ICE WORLD!
'TITAN' also to be found here around SATURN and this is a very curious place with it's thick atmosphere & is another place of interest.

And just to think NOT too long ago many experts thought there was little chance of such things in our own SS...and REMEMBER these MOONS are NOWHERE near the so called GOLDILOCKS ZONE (ok so unlikely to be intelligent life here on Enceladus or on Europa but why rule out larger forms of life there? in fact on Europa some have already said it's likely)

This Drip feed of what's really out there seems to be gathering pace...

Let's hope it speeds up for unlike that boring professor on Newsnight we need to find these species & find out what's it all about? ALFIE

But will they be BOLD enough to admit (if such things exist?) that these shapes & structures that are difficult to shake from one's head when you just know they are NOT NATURAL & COULD NOT POSSIBLY have been created by EROSION unless nature is copying HUMAN NATURE's crafting of shapes & structures
