That's pretty crazy. Basically makes everything you ever learned in Biology class disappear. but can they really still call it DNA? It's not made of the same blocks as ours, so i don't think the name would be the same.

To be technical.. Yeah, it's different from what we're used to, but it's certainly still DNA.

Anyways that was off topic. But honestly I doubt we will ever find any complex lifeforms out there, the chances are way too small. Thats the best we will ever get.
