This is a new technique developed by scientists at Osaka University. The method, which combines nanocables of gold, tunnel current and artificial intelligence.
Researchers have succeeded in analyzing the different forms of amino acids, which are found in varying proportions in living and non-living processes, through electrical signals. The goal is to transform this AI-powered system into small devices that can be used in future space missions to search for signs of life.
Scientists have discovered a groundbreaking new method they hope will help them find life on other worlds. Finding signs of life in space requires searching for traces left behind by living organisms, called "biosignatures." However, detecting these can be difficult: the equipment used must be both sensitive enough to detect the signals and small enough to be sent to another planet.

Could electricity reveal alien life? Scientists develop a new detection method
For decades, scientists have hunted for signs of life in space by chasing elusive “biosignatures“, chemical clues that might reveal whether something is alive. But designing instruments sensitive enough to detect these signals, while compact enough to fit on spacecraft, has been a stubborn challenge. The University of Osaka has made a major discovery; they […] Continue reading Could electricity reveal alien life? Scientists develop a new detecti…
