This document summarizes a discussion meeting about detecting extra-terrestrial life and its consequences. It notes that astronomers can now detect planets around other stars where life may exist, and living generations may see signatures of life detected. If life is found elsewhere, it would fundamentally change how humanity understands itself. The meeting addressed not just scientific issues but also societal impacts, covering topics like the origins and evolution of life, searching for extra-solar planets and extra-terrestrial intelligence, and the implications for science and society. It highlights our current lack of knowledge about life beyond Earth and the challenges in defining it and identifying unambiguous signatures.
