This paper was interesting enough, but, to me it wasn't totally intriguing. It didn't have me hooked at all. It wasn't an interesting science piece that keeps you on your toes. It had long terms that were difficult to understand and it seemed to drone on and on. The only reason that I didn't' quit on this paper was that in hopes that it would get better ( which it never really did) and because it was about extra terrestrial life, in my opinion, the most interesting out of all scientific topics. The academic point of this paper, however, was very informative. I learned a lot, although technically it was just a theory. Basically scientists are saying that life may have started way out in the universe and that by meteor or comet, life was kind of "delivered to us." I don't necessarily agree with this because I strongly disagree with evolution(which is what their theory is implying), although I do keep an open mind about. Like Aristotle once said "It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it." I can entertain theory's and concepts such as life being delivered to us without really accepting them.
Anyhow, back to the informativeness, scientists at NASA say that if this theory is true life could be in galaxies we could never dream of reaching, way out in the recesses of space.
There was a lot more that was in the article, but it was a bit harder to digest and writing a description of the rest would be extremely difficult. I must first comprehend and digest it, and then I might be able to write about it. But for now the real universe and the universe of my mind shall be left unexplored.
