option E. There are no living things on the Moon.

Justification:

Scientific knowledge is established through methodical observation and experimentation on measurable objective variables. Scientific knowledge has evolved thanks to curiousity, creativity and skeptical attitude of the human being avid to understand the phenomena that surround him (the world and the universe). Scientific knowlege is supported on evidences.

Let's examine each statement:

A. There is a substance around us that cannot be detected.

False. A scientific statement about a substance around us would be aimed to describe that substance in objective (measurable) terms. This statement does not reveal a scientific knowledge.

B. Kids should go to school for 12 years.

False. This kind of statement is more based on cultural beliefs; not a scientific statement.

C. Experimentation is the best way to obtain knowledge.

False. There are different kind of knowledges. Unlike scientific knowledge, religious and phylosophycal knowledges are not reached through experimentation.

D. Unicorns once existed on Earth.

False. It is not based on scientific evidence, so it is not a scientific statement.

E. There are no living things on the Moon.

True. This is a fact established by multiple scientific evidence. It is not based on personal beliefs but in direct observation of evidence. So this is the true sentence about a scientific statement.
