Scientists launch initiative to look for extraterrestrial life

[staarker]

Scientists at four of the world’s leading universities have teamed up to investigate the origins of life on Earth, and look for similar biological processes taking place elsewhere in the universe.

The universities of Cambridge in Britain, Harvard and Chicago in the US and ETH Zurich in Switzerland announced the formation of what they called the Origins Federation on Saturday (Sunday AEDT) at the American Association for the Advancement of Science annual meeting in Washington. https://anomalien.com/worlds-leading-sc ... or-aliens/

This is all great and everything, but what kind of funding and support will it have? Is this just a publicity move or are they going to put some serious money behind it to be successful?
