NEW YORK: “I believe we are going to have strong indications of life beyond Earth in the next decade and definitive evidence in the next 10 to 20 years,” NASA’s chief scientist, Ellen Stofan, said as part of a panel on Tuesday. “We know where to look, we know how to look, and in most cases we have the technology.”
Her comments have made waves. Stofan clarified that we’re most likely to find extraterrestrial microbes, not little green men. Still, to many people, it sounds like a brash, far-fetched prediction.
But Stofan isn’t alone. Scientists studying other worlds, both in our solar system and orbiting distant stars, have also predicted that we’re likely to find out a lot about the existence of extraterrestrial life in the coming decades.
