  Not too much reporting on this story but several known news agencies if you google it.

  This titanium metal orb, the size of a human hair was found and having bio matter oozing out of it. There is a pic on some of the sites. Now imagine if that's what started life on this planet haha.

  Panspermia, I think the idea of it being a possibility is very cool to entertain myself.

  Has this story been fact check to make sure its not some hoax? Sounds interesting to say the least.

  Pretty cool story. And not a hoax at all. Both the people mentioned in the article, Chandra Wickramasinghe and Milton Wainwright, are real scientists who are working to try and prove their hypothesis of panspermia using the scientific method (unlike most the idiots on the History Channel).

  That said, it has NOT been confirmed that this is organic material nor that it is of alien origin. The standard of evidence for proving the existence of alien life is going to be very high. I personally am going to withhold judgment until they publish a peer reviewed scientific paper on their findings. And even then, I will continue to be highly skeptical until a group of outside researchers is able to look at the material and reach similar conclusions.

  All my caveats aside, it would be awesome if we find out this is actually alien life! SETI and NASA would surely get a huge bump in their funding.

  I wish they had details on what exactly was inside it. Even though it's microscopic, I'm sure they've ran some sort of test. Unless it was too compromised or denaturized to be of any use at that point.

  I'm totally jonesing for First Contact.

  (I say this in jest, but part of me actually means it).
