ASTEROID BENNU: SCIENCE OR CLICKBAIT?

NASA and the media are hyping up Bennu’s “seeds of life” as if we just found aliens. Let’s get real:

✅ Organic molecules? Found everywhere—from meteorites to deep space.
✅ Water? Common on asteroids and moons.
✅ Phosphates & amino acids? Chemistry, not biology.

💡 The #Nostr #News Reality:
This is a scientific curiosity, not proof of extraterrestrial life or even a strong hint at it. The fact that NASA and news outlets are hyping it up as such? Classic funding season PR. We get it—space exploration needs money. But let’s not confuse basic chemistry with aliens.

I fully believe we’re just an atom in this vast universe, and odds are, we’re not alone. But, imo, this? Clickbait, not a breakthrough. Call me when we find (or get found by) actual life.
