I have a question for you. How is Panspermia related to Exogenesis?

[muawiyah]

Both are words ~ one suggests that life is widespread, the other simply says it came from off-world.

Neither suggest any motive or direction for any of it.

You realize that the concept was well discussed in science fiction of the 1920s and 1930s.

I saw your suggestion regarding Wikipedia. Frankly, I rarely use that site preferring instead the popular science press - Scientific American, Discover, and Science News. If a piece looks interesting and readable, I'll go to the library to read the journal.
