I am thinking along the lines of them finding high concentrations of methane in a distant planets atmosphere or something similar indicating indirect possiblilities of life but hey, I'll take anything that points in this direction!...guess we will wait and see 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waspie_Dwarf Posted February 22, 2017 #21 Share Posted February 22, 2017 Doing a bit of searching, it seems that the most likely announcement NASA is going to make is about planets around the star TRAPPIST-1.It is currently known to have 3 Earth sized planets orbiting it. NASA will announce that there are, in fact, seven Earth sized planets around TRAPPIST-1 and most of them are in the habitable zone. Of course this is only a rumour. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably something to do with I sort of agree that NASA do hype stuff up a bit too much, but the 'let down' could also be from having ludicrously high expectations and wanting alien life to not only be discovered but also for them to come down, take over, and fix the world for us. But that won't be happening - I'll bet my pet tarantula on that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here is what NASA ACTUALLY said: Quote NASA to Host News Conference on Discovery Beyond Our Solar System NASA will hold a news conference at 1 p.m. EST Wednesday, Feb. 22, to present new findings on planets that orbit stars other than our sun, known as exoplanets. The event will air live on NASA Television and the agency's website. Details of these findings are embargoed by the journal Nature until 1 p.m. Read More: NASA The rest of the announcement is about how to attend, a list of participants and links to watch the event live. No hype, just boringly factual. This is the standard format for a NASA announcement of a scientific discovery. Now compare NASA.s headline to a selection from mainstream news organisations:- The Daily Mail: Quote Mystery as NASA calls Wednesday press conference to announce 'major' exoplanet discovery The Independent: Quote Nasa to host major press conference on 'discovery beyond our solar system' The Express: Quote Nasa live stream - How to watch big announcement on ‘discovery beyond our solar system’ Fox News: Quote NASA set to make major exoplanet announcement All of them describe the announcement as "major" or "big". NASA makes no such claim. I think this shows where the hype really comes from. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
