NASA SCIENTIST PREDICTS WE'LL FIND ALIEN LIFE IN NEXT TEN YEARS

Speaking on a panel discussion on Tuesday about water in the universe, NASA’s chief scientist Ellen Stofan said she believes the first indications of alien life could come by 2025 – with more concrete evidence of extraterrestrial life coming in 20 to 30 years. “We know where to look. We know how to look,” she said. “In most cases we have the technology, and we’re on a path to implementing it, so I think we’re definitely on the road.” She expects alien life won’t be “little green men.” “We are talking about little microbes,” she said.
* If that’s what they’re admitting, that means they already found it.
* Oh come on. You don’t think they’re softening us up for disclosure?
* I want a scientist to explain why everything cool is always ten years away.
* Except hoverboards. I think we’ve all pretty much given up on hoverboards.
* Keep in mind, these are the same geniuses who blew up two shuttles and made the original mirror for the Hubble telescope all wrong and crashed a $250 million Mars probe because some of the software was in feet and some of it was in meters, so …
* There was an old comedy troupe called Firesign Theater and they had an album, “Everything You Know Is Wrong.” I think it’s about to come true.
* Gee, I’d really hate it if all our belief systems turned out to be baseless. If you take out all the wars, they’ve really served us well.
* Forget water in the universe. Where can we go to find gold?
