CI1 fossils refer to alleged morphological evidence of microfossils found in five CI1 carbonaceous chondrite meteorite fall: Alais, Orgueil, Ivuna, Tonk and Revelstoke. The research was published in March 2011 in the ''Journal of Cosmology'' by Richard B. Hoover, an engineer. However, NASA distanced itself from Hoover's claim and his lack of expert peer-reviews. ==Findings== (詳細はESEM) and Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FESEM) to analyze the meteorite samples, studying internal surfaces. Hoover also produced electron micrographs which he believes resemble the shape of trichomic cyanobacteria and other trichomic prokaryotes such as the filamentous sulfur bacteria. For comparison, Hoover compared the samples to those of terrestrial minerals and biological materials. Hoover concludes from these results that the CI1 fossils are indigenous to the samples. The claims were initially submitted to the ''International Journal of Astrobiology'', which rejected the paper.〔 NASA distanced itself from Hoover's claims,〔 (【引用サイトリンク】title=NASA Statement on Astrobiology Paper by Richard Hoover )〕 and the claims were debunked soon after publication.〔 〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「CI1 fossils」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
