> June 20, 1997 The Search for Alien Life Is it possible that alien life could exist on other planets and moons in our solar system? Lately, biologists have found life on Earth in all kinds of unlikely places, including bacteria that live deep within the Earth's crust, organisms in the ocean near high-temperature vents, and species that can survive without light, with little oxygen, and in extreme temperature ranges. If life can survive in conditions like these, might it also be found elsewhere in the universe? We'll talk about recent findings that might support the possibility of life elsewhere, including the famous Martian meteor, water on Jupiter's' moon Europa, and the status of the search for life on other worlds.
