Extraterrestrial life may exist in the upper atmosphere of brown dwarfs, which are transition objects between star and planet. To such conclusion reached by the astronomers from the UK, reports Joinfo.ua with reference to arXiv.org.
In recent years, experts have found in brown dwarfs features that allow to classify these objects to the major planets. Talk about them, for example, lead and mineral "clouds", oxygen, hydrogen, carbon and nitrogen.
This, according to experts, sufficient conditions for living in the atmosphere of dwarfs of microbes, if their size is ten times smaller than typical terrestrial bacteria.
Moreover, theoretically there may exist larger organisms, if in the atmospheres of brown dwarfs will be a strong updrafts of air, similar to what we have on Jupiter and Saturn.
According to the specialist from the University of Edinburgh Jack Yeats, the study of the spectrum of brown dwarfs will help to find traces of life in their atmosphere or make sure that it is not there.
