1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:06,000
Something scientists have never seen before, and so far, can't explain.

2
00:00:06,000 --> 00:00:09,000
Scientists are puzzled by the unidentified space growth,

3
00:00:09,000 --> 00:00:12,000
and excited at the prospect of what may be a new life form

4
00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:14,000
recovered from the exterior of a satellite.

5
00:00:14,000 --> 00:00:17,000
The growth is a very interesting phenomenon.

6
00:00:17,000 --> 00:00:23,000
It's not exactly identified yet, but it's still in preliminary stages at this point.

7
00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:29,000
The growth appeared on an L-death, the abbreviation for long duration exposure facility.

8
00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:34,000
Basically, a satellite designed to expose and test materials in outer space.

9
00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:43,000
It is a gradient growth that generates from an area in which the covered portion of the L-death was located at.

10
00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:49,000
And as you can see specifically right in this area, you get a very silvery looking area

11
00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:54,000
to a very dark brown into a brownish white kind of area.

12
00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:59,000
In that area, scientists found microscopic fibers.

13
00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:05,000
When they were magnified by a high powered scanning microscope, mysterious images were revealed.

14
00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:11,000
In some cases it looks somewhat like a fungus or a mold, at least to some of us.

15
00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:15,000
What came back on this satellite appears to be organic,

16
00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:20,000
but some researchers believe the growth is merely the result of a battery leak on board the craft.

17
00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:24,000
Others point to the fibers as proof that the growth is organic

18
00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:28,000
and that strange new life forms make existing outer space.
