Boffins plan to set a vampire trap to lure out aliens hiding on Mars using a chemical in human blood. Astrobiologists are ...

A Mars image shows a strange square formation. Some think it's artificial, but experts suggest natural causes.

A new chemotaxis-based method could revolutionize the search for extraterrestrial life by detecting microbes movement on Mars ...

NASA's Perseverance rover collects Martian soil samples from Jezero Crater, revealing potential signs of past life on Mars.

Chemotaxis, a process for chemically inducing movement in an organism, may be a crucial tool in the search for life on Mars.

Rovers sent to Mars have so far failed to detect life, likely because it doesn’t exist on the Red Planet. But we can’t say ...

Finding life on another planet would be a world-changing discovery for humanity. But actually detecting it is no simple task.

“One of the goals [of astrobiology] is to go to [other worlds] and look for microorganisms, but in the meantime there’s so ...

The search for alien life could be boosted by a simple new test, say scientists. They believe the movement of microbes may ...

Use precise geolocation data and actively scan device characteristics for identification. This is done to store and access ...

The search for alien life could be boosted by a simple new test, say scientists. They believe the movement of microbes may ...

Researchers have long investigated what type of life exists beyond Earth and how we can find it. A new method focuses on looking for one of the most basic signs of living microbes – movement.
