 "NASA waves away rumours of announcement regarding extraterrestrial life"){kind=logo}
US space agency **NASA** said that it has no pending announcement regarding extraterrestrial life, following a wave of media reports that it was about to announce the evidence of alien life. Thomas Zurbuchen, associate administrator for the agency’s Science Mission Directorate, on Monday denied the reports and confirmed that NASA scientists are still looking for proof of alien life, reports Xinhua news agency. “Are we alone in the universe? While we do not know yet, we have missions moving forward that may help answer that fundamental question,” he tweeted. The wave of media reports emerged after **hacking group Anonymous** posted a 12-minute video on YouTube, in which a man wearing a mask in a clear synthesized voice said that at a Congressional hearing in April, Zurbuchen had said: “Our civilization is on the verge of discovering evidence of alien life in the cosmos.” “Taking into account all of the different activities and missions that are specifically searching for evidence of alien life we are on the verge of making one of the most profound and unprecedented discoveries in history,” the masked man quoted Zurbuchen as saying. The video, which also touches on the latest discovery regarding Earth-size planets circling the star TRAPPIST-1 and several supposed UFO sightings, has so far been watched by more than 1 million viewers.
