British scientists claim to have found alien life in the atmosphere.
Sheffield University researchers say they have found alien life forms in the atmosphere of our planet after analyzing the data obtained by a balloon sent into the stratosphere.
Milton Wainwright, Department of Molecular Biology and Biotechnology and director of the work, is convinced that the microorganisms found in the stratosphere are not of our planet. The discovery was made at the peak of the Perseids, at an altitude of 16.7 miles.
"Most people will argue that these biological particles must, of necessity, have moved into the stratosphere from Earth, but it is known that the particle size of which we have found can not rise from the ground to heights, for example, of 27 km (16.7 miles). The only exception might be caused by a violent volcanic eruption (to push up those particles), but none of that has happened during the three years that we have been collecting samples. "
"In the absence of a mechanism to explain how these particles can be transported from here to the stratosphere, the researcher only thing we can do is conclude that these biological entities originated in space. Therefore, our findings are that life is continually reaching Earth from space, that life is not restricted only to our planet and it is virtually certain that it did not originate here. "
The extraordinary results of this research are published in the Journal of Cosmology.
