Xeno-biology (part 5)


My point is that our expectations for life may easily be shattered if we are ever able to venture out of our own solar system. Though life in the Solar Echoes universe is based on our current understanding, there are a few lifeforms in the game that fall outside our normal understanding. Living, crystalline aliens or extra-dimensional, phantom-like beings of energy are two examples of life in Solar Echoes that is not carbon-based. The xeno-biologist in the Solar Echoes visual novel game has an important role for the humans in better understanding the alien life that the protagonist is encountering. While xeno-biology is not exactly a great career option today, if we manage to travel to the stars in the future, it may become a very sought-after specialty; especially if we do find alien ecosystems on distant planets, or even sentient alien beings!
