The news is really interesting exobiology science, but the headline is terrible.
Yes. That’s been a theory even since I was a child in the 70’s. They don’t mean humans but life in general
It feels like the title should be "uninhabited". Life on earth doesn't survive because we continue to be bombarded with nutrient carrying asteroids, it just needed them to kick it off. That few nutrients are likely to make it from the surface to the ocean means the genesis is unlikely to occur, but it doesn't seem to make a decision about whether an unlikely genesis could survive, even if only in a small pocket of the ocean.
There goes the real estate market.
Maybe for you but I’m built different.
Well, there goes that idea. I will have to look for other places to retire.
