Pluto is a celestial body that is very far away from Earth, and because it is so far from Earth, it was not discovered by humans until the 1930s. However, at that time, there were many miscalculations about Pluto: humans believed that Pluto was not small, and once suspected that Pluto was the ninth planet. Of course, it was only later that mankind realized that all this was an oolong.
What does Pluto really look like?This problem has been bothering humanity for decades. After all, because Pluto is so far away from Earth, humanity has a vague understanding of Pluto. In order to find out the real situation of Pluto, therefore, at the beginning of 2006, mankind sent the **New Horizons probe to explore Pluto - of course, at that time, Pluto was still regarded as one of the nine planets in the solar system.
After New Horizons left Earth, it was not until 2015 that it reached Pluto – and it is not difficult to see how far away Pluto is from Earth, and it took the probe a full nine years to get there.
After the New Horizons probe arrived on Pluto, it carried out a more in-depth data collection on Pluto within the framework of technology, and transmitted the data from Pluto back to Earth - these data include all aspects of Pluto's atmospheric structure, temperature, and geography.
In the atmospheric collection, New Horizons actually discovered the presence of ammonia. Because of this discovery, some scientists suspect that Pluto is likely to have life.
Ammonia is not uncommon if it appears on Earth. Because there is ammonia in the urine. However, the presence of ammonia on Pluto is in any case an unbelievable phenomenon: the creation of ammonia requires the participation of biological activity. Therefore, scientists are skeptical: Could it be that there is life on Pluto?
Theoretically, of course, ammonia could be produced without biological intervention – but this would need to be synthesized with nitrogen and hydrogen at high temperatures and pressures. And the conditions of Pluto have nothing to do with all this: because Pluto is so far from the Sun, the whole planet is at minus 230 degrees Celsius, so high temperatures are ruled out. At the same time, Pluto's atmosphere is thin, so high pressure is also not established. At the same time, Pluto's atmospheric composition does not contain much nitrogen and hydrogen. Therefore, so much ammonia from Pluto** forced scientists to suspect the existence of life on Pluto.
But the problem arises again: Pluto's environment is harsh, with a low temperature of minus 230 degrees Celsius, no liquid water, and a thin atmosphere, and a magnetic field that is about equal to none, so it is not resistant to cosmic radiation. None of these conditions support the birth and evolution of life. As a result, for a long time, almost no one believed in the existence of life on Pluto.
Therefore, the discovery of ammonia has put scientists in an embarrassing situation - because whether ammonia is naturally synthesized or biologically contributed, it means that human scientific theories need to be revised and rewritten.
For mankind, biology and cosmology are destined to be overthrown and revised: because mankind's understanding of cosmology is in a preliminary situation, and the study of living things is limited to terrestrial organisms. And if extraterrestrial life exists, whether it is different from terrestrial life can only remain at the stage of conjecture at present - unless, human beings really discover extraterrestrial life.
