Is This Picture a 'Seed' Sent to Earth by Aliens? Scientists Discover Mysterious Organism

Some scientists believe this is a seed sent to earth by aliens

The never-before seen image shows a microscopic metal globe spewing out biological material feared to be an infectious agent.

Though the origin or purpose of the mysterious sphere is uncertain, experts say it could contain genetic material - the precursor to life.

They sensationally claim it could have been designed by an intelligent species to “seed” and propagate alien life on Earth.

It is the first time anything like this has been seen and points not only to the existence of extra-terrestrial life, but to complex and civilised beings watching our planet.

It follows findings that DNA capable of inserting itself into living creatures and replicating can exist in harsh space conditions.

A tiny ‘plasmid’, a circular strand of DNA used in genetic engineering, was sent into space from Sweden in 2011 on the exterior of a TEXUS-49 rocket.


The mysterious organism has baffled scientists After enduring 1,000C heat it was found to still be intact and with its biological properties when it returned to Earth.

Professor Chandra Wickramasinghe director of the Buckingham Centre for Astrobiology at the University of Buckingham in England, said it is further proof of alien life.

This reads more like an article from the “Tattler” ... LOL ...

It’s really unclear, without reading several times over again, where this item came from, according to the scientists. It appears that they’re saying it came from a balloon they launched into the stratosphere, which was collecting dust up there. This was in the dust.

Past that point, the article gets even murkier as to what is going on.

Again, this reads more like an article in the Tattler or the Star, rather than anything significant! It could ALSO be an article from “The Onion” for all I know!

I think it’s part of an advertising campaign for the next version of the movie Prometheus! ... LOL ...

Richard Dawkins (paraphrase), “alien life piggy backed on crystals.”

I actually liked Prometheus but I think it was more a matter of liking Noomi Rapace.



I did think it was cool that Shaw wanted that Crucifix back.

It’s a “planet seed” from the Genesis Project…

I chose the topic “Nothing’ and went on for about three pages why ‘Nothing’ was ‘Something’. The lady Prof. thought my rambling was unique but not worth an A.

Most college professors today are expert in how to turn nothing into a couple of hundred grand a year.

While I have become convinced of the existence of UFOs, I think these secondary speculations are just sensationalism and an appeal to “pop science”.

And that is an odd statement from someone who claims not to be an atheist.

You did forget about Genesis and what it says, didn't you.
