Short story about hypothetical discovery of life on venus
Abstract:
Possible existence of life beyond the Earth relates to the most fundamental themes of science and philosophy. Numerous papers on search for life beyond the Earth are always based on the postulate of the presence of water and notions on the Earth-like biochemistry, based on chemical reactions occurring under the Earth "normal" physical conditions. On the same postulate a term "habitable zone" of exoplanets orbits is based, also taken as an axiom. Looking for aliens is in fact, looking for ourselves on distant worlds. But if you put a question, why only the physical conditions of the Earth are considered as the only essential for life, the final answer surprises by its naivity: because this way is the biosphere of the Earth arranged and so we are arranged ourselves (it can be extended: and we, as everybody knows, are the best. Who doubts may recall campaigns of the Crusaders, and other events of the mankind history.
