Aliens exist, and we have proof.

That astonishingly awesome claim comes from Dr. Richard B. Hoover, an astrobiologist at NASA’s Marshall sponsored links
Space Flight Center, who says he has found conclusive evidence of alien life — fossils of bacteria found in an
extremely rare class of meteorite called CI1 carbonaceous chondrites. (There are only nine such meteorites IGT Slots: Video & Reel
on planet Earth.) Hoover’s findings were published late Friday night in the Journal of Cosmology, a peer- IGT Slots Machines for Sale - Free Delivery

Hoover, who has spent more than 10 years studying meteorites around the world, told FoxNews.com in an Free $50,000 practice account with charts,

well of course it didn't if they fully prove the existence of aliens then the government is going to have
a field day with our taxes trying to find them and to prevent them from finding us. if they prove that
they exist then we could be in serious danger, they may not want anything to do with us but if they
do who's going to stop[ them from doing what ever they want to us. I'm all for the belief in life in
space but are we ready for it is the question?

Wow... This story is fake. It was originally told by Fox who took it from a journal of Cosmology... Fox doesn't
bother with stuff like fact checking, so here it is, taken by Yahoo for everyone to see. Other life does exist, but
this isn't it.

Now untwist your religious panties, as you can go another day thinking everything revolves around you.

OK... Some of you know that I bash the libtards a LOT around here. It's the bible bangers turn.
ASSuming that Earth is the ONLY place in the entire universe where there is life is EXTREMELY
ignorant... Especially if you believe we ARE alone simply because the bible doesn't mention that
there is life elsewhere. When you take the number of stars that are in the universe as a whole, it is a
mathematical likelyhood that there is at least ONE planet besides ours that has and supports
complex lifeforms, even if you use the smallest of percentages to narrow down that likelyhood. Look
at it this way. If God decided to create life on Earth, exactly what is stopping him from also creating
life elsewhere? NOTHING!!!! It's God, and he can do whatever he wants... And he doesn't have to
tell US about it either! I'm not saying that there is no possibility of Earth being the ONLY planet with
life, because that IS a possibility as well. I'm just saying that The Earth being the ONLY planet with
life is actually unlikely.

What is truly amazing is that no one places value anymore on scientific discoveries, or
accomplishments of others. This is remarkable- not for religious or political purposes. A man that
has spent 10 years of his life working toward this goal has found something that we did not know
existed.- LIFE. Speaking of life, I think I will get back to mine and stop reading the idiotic comments
that are so annoyingly ignorant they will bother me for days. I cannot believe with the education
system we offer that such ignorance still exists. Seriously!

Do you really think we are alone in the universe? Do you have a small brain?
Scientists around the world are optimistic that extraterrestrial life does exist; there could be
thousands of civilizations.
I wouldn't be surprize if different goverments around the world make the announcement that we are
being visited. I give it 5 years!!!!

life on other worlds , or in places we humans can't live is obvious . And does not need to lumited to
carbon based life forms we are familiar to on earth . even in places we don't expect to find life on
this planet we find life we call extremofiles . I say to my fellow humans , '' Get over yourselves , we
are not the most important life forms , We are just another aminal on planet earth ... no more no less
'' in fact we are more like a virus to the earth ... we are polluting the planet and cause more harm
and damage than all the natural disaters have .
