Various mechanisms could enable life to travel vast distances of space, including panspermia, directed panspermia, lithopanspermia, and astrochicken. The ideas have implications and challenges, including the origin and diversity of life, the ethics and risks of seeding other worlds, and the detection and communication of extraterrestrial life.

A New Discovery of Carbonic Acid in Space Boosts #Panspermia, the Theory That Life on Earth Originated In Deep Space.

#psilocybin mushrooms were seeded here through #Panspermia from space, and in our evolutionary path caused us to develop language... it's possible the #mushroom is an intergalactic technology that spreads #language and the end result is a artificial intelligence that does the phone home theory #AI

Panspermia here at home

As we contemplate yet another demonstration of the ultimate stupidity of the American electorate: too mired in propaganda, too intellectually stultified to realize their own oppression... too twp to know they’re twp, as the good Welshmen say... it’s hard to find a crumb of optimism in the bottom of my brain pan these days, for this old beat up and much abused planet we balance on so precariously.

Learn about different kinds of #microbes and #extremophiles, as well as some of the relatively recent interplanetary discoveries that help make #panspermia—a concept that suggests life may have been seeded between our local #planets or throughout the #universe through #meteorite impacts, #interstellar dust, or other #space debris—a credible hypothesis.

Ayer salió una #noticia que comentaba el hallazgo de VitB3 y Uracilo en un asteroide. No es la primera vez que pasa algo parecido. Existe la hipótesis de la #Panspermia y un origen quimiosintetico de la #Vida 🧬, sobre la que escribí esto:

"Column densities of the major and minor ice species indicate that ices contribute between 2% and 19% of the bulk budgets of the key C, O, N and S elements. Our results suggest that the formation of simple and complex molecules could begin early in a water-ice-rich environment."

The idea that life on Earth originated elsewhere is not as far out as it seems

It sure is. I couldn't even imagine trying to play upright bass with the way mine gets. I just never get to really rest it. 2 girls under 5 always want to be carried, 2 hours of commuting a day, microscope, computer, phone.

Like, #extraterrestrial #panspermia or non-human #hominid like #Neanderthal?

"Inside Ancient Asteroids, Gamma Rays Made Building Blocks of Life. A new radiation-based mechanism adds to the ways that amino acids could have been made in space and brought to the young Earth."

Quanta: https://www.quantamagazine.org/inside-ancient-asteroids-gamma-rays-made-building-blocks-of-life-20230104/

"Last spring, scientists revealed that the chemical composition of the asteroid includes 10 amino acids, the building blocks of proteins.

But where did these amino acids come from? The amino acids flowing through our ecosystems are products of cellular metabolism, mostly in plants. What nonbiological mechanism could have put them in meteorites and asteroids?

Scientists have thought of several ways, and recent work by researchers in Japan points to a significant new one: a mechanism that uses gamma rays to forge amino acids. Their discovery makes it seem even more likely that meteorites could have contributed to the origin of life on Earth."

My story episodes on #SeldonCrisis are the relative heavy hitters getting ~200 downloads in first 30 days. The latest guest episode with Robert #Zubrin is on track to double that at the current pace. #Mars #MarsDirect #NASA #Panspermia #LifeOnEarth #Spaceflight #MarsSociety

In our recent discussion on #SeldonCrisis, Dr. Robert #Zubrin described his idea of how life could migrate from star to star and account for the beginnings of life on Earth, and I find it utterly fascinating. #Panspermia #OriginOfLife

Listening to the latest episode of @SeldonCrisisPod@twitter.com . A brilliant conversation with Dr. Robert Zubrin, President of the Mars Society. With a bit of #Asimov , #Panspermia . Maybe we can get a 2nd episode with Dr. Zubrin?

This might be my favorite clip from the #SeldonCrisis interview with Robert #Zubrin. He explains how #panspermia very likely transmitted life to Earth with a compelling analogy of leaving food on the table and how bacteria will find it. The implications of this are so profound! #OriginOfLife

Yesterday almost 70 people downloaded the Robert Zubrin episode of #SeldonCrisis and a dozen or so went back to the beginning and started from the first episode. The #Zubrin effect!

Could we send life-bringing comets to those planets and seed them with terrestrial life? And if we could do that, should we?
