There has been a lot of studies regarding the existence of aliens and other forms of life outside the earth. This prolonged study has finally yielded a result as NASA has reportedly found life is the space.
On Thursday, they will be organizing a press conference at 2 PM EST to discuss their astrobiological finding.
