Hydrogen-breathing aliens? Study suggests new approach to finding extraterrestrial life
In our search for extraterrestrial life, we tend to look at ‘conventional’ Earth-Like exoplanets, searching for atmospheres for recognizable bio-signatures. This makes sense, after all, we only have one sample of a life hosting planet in the universe. Still, it could be smart to also look at different indicators, as alien life might use dissimilar chemistry to our own. In a new study, scientists argue to broaden our search. Professor of Planetary Geosciences, David Rothery, explores the topic in this article.

Our place in the universe will change dramatically in the next 50 years – here’s how
In the upcoming 50 years, humankind will attempt to answer fundamental questions about the universe and the fundamentals of our existence: Is there life on exoplanets? Is there extraterrestrial life in our solar system? Where has all the antimatter in the universe gone? - Robin Smith explains what we can expect
