Exclusive: NASA Scientist Claims Evidence of Alien Life on Meteorite

We are not alone in the universe -- and alien life forms may have a lot more in common with life on Earth than we had previously thought.

That's the stunning conclusion one NASA scientist has come to, releasing his groundbreaking revelations in a new study in the March edition of the Journal of Cosmology.

Dr. Richard B. Hoover, an astrobiologist with NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center, has traveled to remote areas in Antarctica, Siberia, and Alaska, amongst others, for over ten years now, collecting and studying meteorites. He gave FoxNews.com early access to the out-of-this-world research, published late Friday evening in the March edition of the Journal of Cosmology. In it, Hoover describes the latest findings in his study of an extremely rare class of meteorites, called CI1 carbonaceous chondrites -- only nine such meteorites are known to exist on Earth.

His cup of utter self-loating overfloweth.

How anyone could look at themselves in the mirror and not be utterly disgusted at something like that is a testament to the depth of his mental illness and self-hatred.

Ok, well, I was wondering. So how would it survive without oxygen?

Is that a purple tube? Is it “Tom, Dick, Harry and Sally” from Third Rock From the Sun?

It didn't. What's in the rock are fossilized remains, or at least that's what the scientist claims.

But, if it was fossilized at some point it was alive.

Yeah, how could I forget!...my favorite part was when Roddy and Keith David beat the stuffing out of each other because Keith refused to try on the glasses.

Strange movie, but I liked it all the same.

"Since most scientists now believe the Moon from formed from a chunk of the Earth after a collision with another stellar object/planet, we should be able to find similar fossils on the Moon. Shouldn’t we?"

Not likely, since the collision with Theia that gave us the moon happened very early in Earth history. Long before life is thought to have developed here.

There are many forms of life that do not need oxygen (at least not O2). In fact early Earth life faced a crisis when plant life (consumes C02, makes C and O2) produced so much oxygen (highly corrosive) that it threatened to kill off all life on Earth. Happily animals came into existence and consumed the excess oxygen (and made CO2) that plant life was producing.
