Life in the Universe Debate

This discussion will be a lively debate on the existence of life beyond our planet. I want to challenge you to think broadly about “alien life” throughout this debate. Let’s try to avoid the trap of talking only about UFOs and aliens - although you are welcome to discuss that - but let’s also be sure to address the question of life through a more scientific lens, including forms of life like plants, grass, microbes, etc.

Present Your Perspective: Share your thoughts on the existence of extraterrestrial life, supporting your position with reasoning and evidence. Consider incorporating ideas from science, philosophy, or personal intuition to enrich the discussion.
Engage in the Debate: Read and respond to at least three of your classmates’ posts. Challenge their arguments, pose questions, or provide additional insights to create a dynamic and interactive conversation.
Foster Respectful Dialogue: While debating differing viewpoints, remember to maintain a constructive and respectful tone. The goal is to explore this topic together in a way that is both stimulating and enjoyable.
