What actual discoveries or usable possible discoveries would result from the discovery of a deceased alien body?
Say an alien body was found in a field somewhere, no tech or ship, just a body, what sort of biological or chemical discoveries could be gleaned from it? In science fiction it's always a big deal DISCOVERING an alien of any sort but why? Bonus points if the alien is silicon based. Would this actually be scientifically revolutionary?
