Comments on: NASA Finds Life on Earth: Really? https://www.abrokenmold.net/2010/12/nasa-finds-life-on-earth-really/ lifelog :: art, theology, tech, politics Wed, 08 Aug 2012 19:01:43 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=4.4.2 By: Matthew Hurley https://www.abrokenmold.net/2010/12/nasa-finds-life-on-earth-really/#comment-488 Sat, 11 Dec 2010 23:53:27 +0000 https://www.abrokenmold.net/?p=1168#comment-488 I would comment more extensively, but I already talked about it with you. In brief, it *is* a big deal in the sense in that it redefines the human understanding of life. Kind of game-changing.

But no, if journalists are trying to make out like it changes everything, I agree it’s blown out of proportion.

Mono Lake is hardly exciting. As to the “pretty cool,” yeah, it is, just as much as we found a phosphorus based life form. But it is not something entirely new, or a “game changer,” if you will. Living arsenic, fun as it is, is over rated. Big time.

I think it is indeed possible that it “changes everything” in a certain field(s) of science. But the arsenic can stay cozy where it is and we can have Christmas by ourselves.
