Having made the astonishing claims during a conference in Washington, NASA now hopes to scour the universe in hope of finding these alien life-forms. And they are planning to use some of the world’s most adavnced technology to produce a roadmap of space.
Today’s modern telescopes can look at hundreds of stars and tell if they have one or more orbiting planets. And they can even determine if the planets are the right distance away from their host star to contain liquid water, which is the key ingredient to life as we know it. NASA plans to lauch new telescopes in the next few years, including the incredible Webb Space Telescope. “This technology we are using to explore exoplanets is real,” said John Grunsfeld, astronaut and associate administrator for NASA’s Science Mission Directorate in Washington. “The James Webb Space Telescope and the next advances are happening now. These are not dreams – this is what we do at NASA.” “What we didn’t know five years ago is that perhaps 10 to 20 percent of stars around us have Earth-size planets in the habitable zone,” says Matt Mountain, director and Webb telescope scientist at the Space Telescope Science Institute in Baltimore. “It’s within our grasp to pull off a discovery that will change the world for ever. “It is going to take a continuing partnership between NASA, science, technology, the U.S. and international space endeavours, as exemplified by the James Webb Space Telescope, to build the next bridge to humanity’s future.” - See more at: http://www.disclose.tv/news/NASA_confirms_Extraterrestrial_life_DOES_exist_on_other_planets/112979#sthash.VtChukqd.dpuf
