Aliens in Space: Do aliens really exist? If there are aliens, where do they live? Space agencies around the world are busy finding answers to these two questions. A big claim has been made in this episode. Researchers at America's Washington University have said that the American space agency NASA will search for aliens by 2030. Researchers claim that aliens may exist on Jupiter's moon Europa. A mission will be launched to find them.
Actually, NASA is going to launch a spacecraft named 'Europa Clipper' in October this year. Europa Clipper will travel for five and a half years to reach Jupiter's moon Europa. After reaching here it will start looking for signs of life on this moon. 178 million dollars i.e. approximately Rs 1500 crore has been spent in making this spacecraft. After launching in October, Europa Clipper will complete its journey to the Europa moon by 2030.
how to find aliens ,
According to a report in the Daily Mail, a team of researchers from the University of Washington said that the Europa Clipper spacecraft is equipped with modern equipment. The instruments can also detect whether life exists in tiny particles of ice from the oceans of Europa's moon. Through the instruments, chemicals that are responsible for life on Earth can also be detected.
Actually, the moon Europa is said to have large oceans and thick sheets of ice. Life may exist beneath this ice sheet. However, till now it is being said that even if there are aliens here, they will be present in the form of small micro-organisms or bacteria. Often the ice breaks and water starts leaking. Aliens can be detected only by finding it.
Why was Europa chosen to search for aliens? ,
The US space agency NASA chose Europa for study because it is rich in water and some nutrients. This means that life can flourish here. Scientists say that there should be three main things for life on any planet. This is the first temperature that liquid water can maintain. The second is the presence of carbon-based molecules and the third is energy, such as sunlight. All three of these are present on Europa.
