This single-minded obsession with extra-terrestrial life reeks of Confirmation Bias. Thank you, Nathalie Cabrol, for introducing scientific skepticism into these
grant-seeking efforts. SETI, meaning the search for extraterrestrial intelligence, suggests to me that we ought to be looking for more of it first on earth, where there appears to be a great intelligence scarcity.
