The search for life beyond Earth is really just getting started, but science has an encouraging early answer: there are plenty of planets in the galaxy, many with similarities to our own. But what we don’t know fills volumes. Observations from the ground and from space have confirmed thousands of planets beyond our solar system.

Strongest sign of alien found: The search for life beyond earth

In a new research, it has been found that astronomers may need to study the pinpoints of purple to discover life on far-off planets. The new research has discovered the light signals which travel from worlds that lack sunlight and oxygen, like in many exoplanets found so far.

The sudden influx of so many things extraterrestrial makes one wonder if amid turbulent times all this is merely a distraction tactic. To gain insights into this, WION's Moohita Garg connected with Harvard professor, Dr Avi Loeb. Here's what the celebrated international expert said.

The first study was a computerised tomography, the second study was a simple X-ray, and the third was a fluoroscopy study. In the three studies, we tried to see the structure of the skeleton of these bodies, and we were able to determine that it does indeed belong to a single skeleton, not assembled, not assembled, in one piece.
