Alien Life On Philae Comet

[Hillian1]

Evidence of alien life is "unequivocal" on the comet carrying the Philae probe through space, two leading astronomers have said.

The real question here is: How long before they turn up in the UK and request Asylum?

Or a couple of regularly dismissed scientists having their latest "look at me" moment....

Well quite, but that doesn't suit my post now does it.

Also big flyby of Pluto next Tuesday, July 14th. Including maybe some light being shed on the mysterious 'four dark spots', only one of which can be the Ulloa penalty shirley?

Alienist!

Well we will never know as they didn't send any life detecting equipment with the probe.

 

[beorhthelm]

neither Rosetta nor its lander probe, Philae, are equipped to search for direct evidence of life

so not very unequivocal then, just speculation from indirect observation of something they dont have explanation for (not probably want to).

Funniest Philae moment by a country light year was when that too-cool-for-school scientist was spotted wearing a 'sexist' shirt and brought the wrath of all of hyper-right-on Kalifornia down on his head

Mrs just rushed off in the car to tesco's muttering about just how many packs of tin foil they might have

seriously this is very interesting

Well presumably the Puncheon one is nestled up there as well, so that's two accounted for...easy this astronomy lark isn't it?

Third one might be the bag with the Cup Final money in.

And the fourth.....Bobby?

Well, if I read the article correctly, and their home comet is hurtling towards the sun at 73,000 mph, you'd have to feel a bit sympathetic to the idea that they might like to stop off here.

Worth investigating, but I think it has a way to go before it reaches "interesting"

There we go, simple as that.

What's the next task for the NSC mythbusters?

but has just a little of the "Soylant Green" about it though, and a bit creepy like Sidney Greenstreet

Those references completely pass me by, unfortunately. The "findings" are definately worth following up, I'm pretty sure there is life up there, it's just that these claims from one scientist are far from "unequivocal". I think we've heard that before about the so-called "microbes" on the meteorite that made a bit of a muffin of Bill Clinton. I'm not getting the welcome mat out for the LGM just yet.

Soylant Green = film about late 60s Charlton Heston and Sidney Greenstreet
food soylant green fed to the masses cannot remember the plot to well as it was a well shite film
and yes with as many planets out there as there are I am sure there is life
the "sky at night" chappy once said that somewhere in the universe there is someone/ thing looking at a screen watching a programme about outer space and wondering is there anyone out there.
the scary thing is they might already be here?

They are. NSC is primarily used by alien life forms.

Sounds like someone dropped a Clanger.

And why shouldn't they, they have relatives here as you know.
