Hello, is this sentence true grammatically?
Only recently has science come to understand the nature of life on earth and the possibility that life exists elsewhere.
 
Re: I have a question

It is grammatically correct.

You will notice that Tdol used "correct", not "true", in his response. We use "true/false" for facts. We use "correct/right/incorrect/wrong" for things like whether something is grammatical.

The elephant is the smallest animal in the world.
The sentence above is grammatically correct but it is not true.

Also, note that I have changed your thread title. Titles should include some or all of the words or phrases you are querying.
