Movie: Life



In 2017 the movie "Life" was released and is about finding a microscopic organisms on some of the rock samples retrieved from a mars mission. Instead of bringing the sample straight to earth, they are instead kept on the International Space Station to be examined. It is found that the cell was dormant, and astoundingly they were able to bring it back to some semblance of life. Over the course of the next few days the organism continues to grow and develop. As the world is astonished by this discovery, they celebrate and soon vote to name the organism "Kelvin".


At first the life form resembles as flat jellyfish, but then quickly grows as it starts to attack the residents on the space station. It soon develops into a cephalopod (octopus like) lifeform. It is highly intelligent, and it begin to compromise the space station. One by one members of the crew begin to die, and in an effort to contain the organism they attempt to destroy it or contain it as best possible. They do not want it to reach earth.

The movie is quite interesting as it warns people not to forget, that nature can be deadly. We need to be careful with new life forms. Not everything is harmless, and that new creatures could wreak havoc on our ecosystem.


Ironically this is not the first time alien life has been found by scientist......2013 this story made headlines on BBC.
