I'm learning more about extraterrestrial life right now, and in particular what I'm wondering about is: Is there life on Mars, or in space at all? I was researching this question online, and this news item caught my attention because It discusses the search, and research processes of extraterrestrial hunts. "The search for evidence of extraterrestrial intelligence, commonly known by the acronym SETI, began at 3 P.M. today with simultaneous commands to computers and radio receivers here at the world's largest radiotelescope and at another big telescope in the Mojave Desert in California." The quote I chose here is basically saying that the search for extraterrestrial life has began. I think this is surprising because I already know that scientists had already began the "extraterrestrial hunt" but I never or hardly ever hear anything about their progression. After all the hoaxes, the little information dished out about Area 51, I don't know what to believe. I think this issues paranoia and conspiracy among me and countless other people. It really makes me wonder... nothing. It reinforces my stance on trust in the government.
