Since there’s no such thing as 100% proof in science, when and who gets to “call it” that the signs of life have been discovered outside of Earth? Presumably NASA, but how do they decide?
Shouldn't this link directly to the paper in question, instead of... Shuffles papers... Courthousenews?
The paper might contain too much jargon for lawyers.
