Re: NASA Discovers New Life Form

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.

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

Re: NASA Discovers New Life Form

*Bad idea*
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.
