  • Clara Sousa-Silva, molecular astrophysicist and research scientist at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, is at the centre of the current search for life on Venus. She investigates how molecules interact with light so that they can be detected on faraway worlds. She joined us at WIRED Live 2020 to share her findings on what life beyond earth can look like.

    Life or not, super interesting to find out something new when we figure it out.

    Love her bright mind, and her being a bit nervous at the same time.

    I can see this method working for the planets/moons in the solar system. However, for exoplanets, this method has a big flaw. That is, it can only examine planets that at some point in time, which must coincide with the moments you are looking at them , are very well aligned between their local star and your instruments on Earth. That's the same reason we have only found a few thousands of them. If they don't cross that line of sight , they cannot be detected.

      Great point, but this is where statistical observations come into play. Just like we don't look at individual molecules in chemical reactions, our telescopes are already scanning the sky en masse, doing cross-product analytics, applying all kinds of filters to all possible directions.
      If the task was to find ALL - we'd be toast. But we'd be happy to find even ONE confirmed signal in the noise.

    Yes but man as being around for 750'000 years and only yesterday as he sent the most rudimentary of messages and different life forms will find different ways of doing things wether everything in the universe is the same thought will always find a different way with tools it as👍

    Imagine spending your entire life passionately on a lie

      But its not a lie. You are phrasing it incorrectly. Its entirely possible that she could spend her career trying to find alien life and not succeed, but thats not a lie. It furthers our knowledge on what is true and what isnt for future generations. Yeah?

      @@mchapman2424 it is definitely easier to lie to you than to convince you that you have been lied to. Try working in the Antarctica and then tell me if it's a lie or not
