Scientists find strong evidence life used to exist on Mars. We're probably going to see confirmation life outside earth exists (which is all but a given now) within the next couple years. Exciting news. My grade six teacher while teaching class (this was back in 2000) said I couldn't do a project (we had to do a project based on anything in space) on aliens because they didn't exist. Now scientists are at a near consensus believing life outside earth exists.

The immense size of the universe, it's basically impossible that there's no other life out there somewhere. I'm not saying there's evolved beings flying around in spaceships, but I have never understood how some people absolutely could not fathom life outside of our planet, there are those people who just refuse to believe it

I agree, but this opinion seems to have shifted in the last decade or so. I think most people today would say aliens must exist. We undoubtedly are going to find proof at least microbial life used to exist on Mars when humans land there, if not sooner. I wouldn't be surprised if they find something more. Then hopefully/possibly/likely we will find living life on Europa. After that it's just speculation where we'll go, we have to get out of the solar system and start exploring. Humanity hasn't explored since the late 19th century, hopefully we'll get back to that this century.

This is going to be an exciting century, and with life expectancy suppose to reach 120+ by 2050, we should be able to see it all. A great time to live. A dream of mine (will never get it) was to go somewhere no one has ever been. Maybe my children and grandchildren will get to do that. If that Mars to Stay expedition ever gets started, I'd definitely want to be part of that.

Was reading an article by a Canadian scientist who believes technology is going to change how humans age, both naturally and artificially. It said he thinks middle age could happen in the 60s-70s, our elderly years will be the 90s to 120s and we'll still be developing into our twenties. It sounded like science fiction but it was interesting. No doubt there will be technology to slow aging this century.

A consequence of this is in the developed world we'll be living till 120, probably older on a regular basis while the third world will still be poor, primitive slums where most people don't live till 50.

Found the article http://www.businessinsider.com/future-human-evolution-2014-9
