…521 in #astrobiology responded, and we received 534 non-#astrobiologist responses. The results reveal that 86.6% of the surveyed astrobiologists responded either “agree” or “strongly agree” that it’s likely that #extraterrestriallife (of at least a basic kind) exists somewhere in the universe…

Surveys of the scientific community on the existence of extraterrestrial life - Nature Astronomy

During February–June 2024 we conducted four surveys among researchers regarding the likely existence of basic, complex, and intelligent extraterrestrial life. Our results offer a snapshot of community opinion and reveal a significant degree of consensus that extraterrestrial life is likely to exist.
