You’re getting a lot of negative feedback for whatever reason, but you’re absolutely right.
I for one remember reading about possible silicon/methane based life, etc. Actually, here’s a whole wikipedia article on what you’re talking about.

Perhaps HN folks will lose your scent now and direct their snark there
- Mistletoe 1y agoBut when you dig down deep on theories like that it just doesn’t make sense from a chemistry or physics standpoint. Everyone saw that Star Trek episode about silicon based life and ran with it as being possible. It’s just a show. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Devil_in_the_Dark https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Devil_in_the_Dark https://lweb.cfa.harvard.edu/~ejchaisson/cosmic_evolution/docs/fr_1/fr_1_future5.html https://lweb.cfa.harvard.edu/~ejchaisson/cosmic_evolution/do...
