4 days ago · Defining life has proven to be a difficult task, even though many of us can look at most things and tell if they’re alive or not. The most widely accepted scientific definition for life right now is this: “life is a self-sustaining chemical system capable of Darwinian evolution”. However, there are still problems with this definition.

Jun 20, 2023 · New technology and deeper understanding are moving us closer to detecting signs of life on another world.
Signs of Life is an astronomical detective story that propels visitors to uncover what it took to put life in the universe. Earth is the launchpad to Mars, the moons of Jupiter and Saturn, and planets beyond our Milky Way Galaxy in a search for answers to the mysteries that captivate our imagination.
So far, the only life we know of is right here on planet Earth. But NASA is looking for signs of life in our solar system and on some of the the thousands of planets we've discovered beyond it, on exoplanets. We can probe alien atmospheres for biosignatures, which could indicate life below.

Signs of Life is a sci-fi survival sandbox platformer with a combination of procedurally generated and hand-crafted content. You'll explore mysterious locations, Mine blocks for resources, and meet strange (and some familiar) creatures, some of which don't even want to kill you and eat your corpse. Along the way, you'll be able to craft armor, weap...
Sensing that an apocalyptic war was imminent, the United Nations executed a last ditch plan to save what they could of the human race. 2 crafts were launched, a massive colony ship called the Hephaestus and a smaller, faster scout ship called the Hermes. The destination was a recently discovered earth-like planet with the potential to harbor life located roughly 18 light years away. The Hermes reached the planet first in order to establish a presence in anticipation of the arrival of the Hephaestus.
4 years later, as the Hephaestus approached its destination a faint signal was detected from a nearby asteroid. Against their better judgement, the crew of the Hephaestus decided to investigate, and in doing so set in motion a chain of events that would ultimately lead to their destruction.
The good news is, you managed to survive by hitching a ride on a small escape pod just in the nick of time. The bad news is, everyone you knew and loved is dead, you have nothing but the clothes on your back, a standard issue multi-function wrist laser and a faulty artificial intelligence companion named AGIS. Oh, and the human race is probably doomed.
Probably.
•An expansive world with procedurally generated and hand-crafted content.
•Online Co-Op Multiplayer
•A bunch of weird alien creatures.
•Some familiar creatures.
•Chickens.
•Mining, hunting, gathering.
Signs of Life is currently in Alpha. We feel like we've put together a fun, satisfying experience that will allow us to get wider feedback while we complete the rest of the game.
Right now our first priority is making sure that the content we have in-game is as bug-free, balanced, polished and fun as possible based on feedback from you folks. We have a significant prologue/tutorial planned, as well as significant content beyond what is currently playable, so the sooner you get involved the more of an effect you'll have on the final game. We deal in hard science, and in working very closely with our personal science advisor at Sweet Dog Studios, that tends to lead to results.
•Some sound effects are missing, but we are actively working on filling them in.
Minimum:
•OS *: Windows 7
•Processor: Dual-Core 2 GHz
•Memory: 2 GB RAM
•Graphics: OpenGL 3.0 Compatible Graphics Device
•Storage: 1 GB available space

Apr 27, 2021 · Potential signs of life, of course, might be detected among the planets in our own solar system – or, more speculatively, via signals from intelligent, technological lifeforms somewhere in the galaxy. But capturing signs of biological activity from exoplanets is a higher technological hurdle.
4 days ago · Defining life from the viewpoint of examining its characteristics reveals how much life on Earth has in common, and helps distinguish between living and non-living things, which is important for learning if life could be possible beyond Earth.
