Pure speculation and they call this kind of rubish science? They should take funding away from scientists that make up such nonsense and give it someone that will do something worthwhile with it.
Lol, most of the research in this world is pure speculation or statistics. And most of it is pretty pointless and would only end up in "Did you know?" sections on TV/newspaper. If we fired all those people... well... I don't know, but I do know that they'd have to work somewhere else like in management or researching better tasting food. And we wouldn't want that.
It kinda confuses me why scientists are so focused on looking for life where there's good temperature. Earth life, heck HUMANS show that life can and will adapt to whatever temperature they're in. Just as long as the lifeforms there won't melt or freeze (heck, maybe even if they do), life could evolve from just about anything. It's really nutrients and atmosphere that matter more.
Disclaimer: Any sarcasm in my posts will not be mentioned as that would ruin the purpose. It is assumed that the reader is intelligent enough to tell the difference between what is sarcasm and what is not.

If you're trying to say that extremophile organisms can survive outside the habitable zone, that's right. Beyond that you're wrong about pretty much everything. Nutrients and atmosphere suitability can (and do, or at least did on Earth) develop AFTER life. That life can survive in extreme conditions doesn't mean abiogenesis is possible in said conditions, and that's not really the point of what's interesting about this discovery.
