Of course she has to deny this absurd characterization of her role at the U.N. But at the lecture for the Royal Society she did discuss procedural implications of finding extraterrestrial INTELLIGENCE...so this implication that they are just concerned with finding microbial life is obviously an attempt to bring the discussion back into respectable limits.

i find it interesting she says that bacteria is the most likely life form we could expect to find (true because it occurs in places other life does not) but is it so hard to admit that more complex lifeforms are very very likely to exist just not in as higher number of planets as the purely bacteria containing ones. Because most people accept that there must be planets out there with bacteria without actually proving to have found any on another planet but if u think theres anything more complex its considered obserd, laughable, science fiction, or just uneducated all of which are untrue
