I guess a long ago failed plan by the luminous one from the planet Soectra?

“In Wickramasinghe’s own words, “Comets are the carriers and distributors of life in the cosmos, and life on Earth arose and developed as a result of cometary inputs.”

It’s called PanSpermia.

Ancient Aliens (History TV) refers to it frequently.

If you examine the structure of the tobacco virus, it resembles a mini space ship that could drift though space for billions of years conceivably with its nucleic acids intact. Always thought it could be the inspiration of some interesting science fiction. Apparently others thought the same.

Several years ago I saw a documentary about testing the intelligence of octopi.

The test which I remember was of an octopus being put into a cage which was locked with a type of combination lock which the octopus was able to manipulate from inside the cage.

The different octopi were able to figure out the combinations quickly and escape from the cage.

But that’s not all...

When an octopus which had learned the lock combination reproduced, the baby octopus was born knowing the lock combination.

It cracks me up. These elite “scientists” cannot acknowledge creation. Alien life, sure, but where did that come from? It’s sort of like the people who think you just plug an electric car into the wall and charge it. No concept of its origin.

I’ve heard this theory proposed before. Octopuses are odd creatures. Radial symmetry, copper-based (!!) blue blood, ability to color-shift its skin for camouflage, dog-like level of intelligence.
