That's what a lot of people are beginning to think. NASA has been touting "an astrobiology finding that will impact the search for evidence of extraterrestrial life" (astrobiology, besides being a cool word, is "the study of the origin, evolution, distribution and future of life in the universe"). Supposedly, this evidence has been gathered/analyzed by the following individuals:
- A geobiologist who's written about "geology and life on Mars";
- an oceanographer who's done extensive work on arsenic-based photosynthesis;
- a biologist examining Titan, the largest moon of Saturn, and its similarities to early Earth;
- and an ecologist investigating the "chemistry of environments where life evolves."
