Hi Everyone,
To me---believing that all life has originated here on Earth and then
spread out from here is like saying that the Earth is still the center of
the solar system or Universe. And----we don't believe that anymore, now do
we??
Just my opinion of course.....:-) I'm sure that here are many other planets
out there that are warm/wet/ideal/in the right place----we just need to find
them, and we will.
Best to all,
Kirk........:-)

There is much documented evidence of microbes in the upper atmosphere
region, I think the debatable bit though is the suggestion that life
must have come from somewhere other than from Earth, - This is simply
not the case. I have seen no evidence to suggest anything other than
that every single life form we have ever found originated right here on
earth.
Some people just cannot accept that life doesn't automatically have to
have come from outer space, they are entitled to hold that view, but
where is the evidence to show that life cannot possibly start on Earth?
It has to start somewhere, and what better place than right here, where
the conditions are warm/wet/cold/ideal?
Sorry but imho panspermia is nothing more than religion by the back
door..
Transfer of life from planet to planet via meteorites is more
interesting, though even here we have the dilemma that just because
highly evolved extreemophiles can potentially survive under controlled
test conditions doesn't automatically mean they actually have, there are
many other complex variables to consider, many of which are still poorly
understood.

G'day, Konnichiwa, Aloha, Top 'o the morning to ya!:
Microbes from outer space living in the upper atmosphere and bacteria
living for millions of years! If I only had more time to read junk
science!

Hi listees,
Some interesting reading...
"...To test if meteorites might protect bacteria on their journey
through space, Horneck and her colleagues mixed samples of 50 million
spores with particles of clay, red sandstone, Martian meteorite, or
simulated Martian soil and made small lumps a centimeter in diameter.
Between 10,000 and 100,000 spores of the original 50 million survived
and when mixed with red sandstone, nearly all survived, suggesting
that
even meteorites a centimeter in diameter can carry life from one
planet
to another, if they completed the journey within a few years. In a
rock
a meter across, bacteria could probably survive for millions of
years...."
Still don't believe?
