Is that a seal fetus crapping stars?
Seriously...this would be a huge discovery!
I hope its true. Hard to trust science these days...
Umm, yo, NASA has no cred.
Seems like I’ve heard this before...........

And it produced this:
When science "discovers" what some scientists desperately want to discover, I get a little cynical. And particularly when the scientists are working for an agency that isn't doing too well in the PR and funding departments at the moment.
I’ll bet the meteorite has a birth certificate.
Wow, it has a letter “S” embedded in it!
Unless this connects to global warming it is a story that is going nowhere.
A life form is found on a meteorite on PLANET EARTH. The life form resembles EARTHLIKE life forms.
A sensible person would conclude that the LIFE FORM CAME FROM PLANET EARTH!!!!!
One day life will be discovered on other planets. But this isn’t it.
Let me just say that I’m skeptical.
To make such a claim, one has to be able to show that there was not contamination from any source. For a meteorite found on the Earth’s surface, that’s pretty hard to do.
Just manipulating the rock in a sterile environment is not sufficient. “Sterile” means that microorganisms are dead, not that they are absent. Whatever process presumably enabled microorganisms of non-Earth origin to penetrate into the interior of the rock would allow Earth organisms to penetrate its interior.
The way I see it, to make such a claim with reasonable assurance, the rock would have to be found and manipulated away from Earth (say, on the surface of the moon or another planet). Then, all of the instruments used to manipulate it would have to be shown to be completely devoid of microorganisms or their remains. Furthermore, putative microorganisms would have to be shown to be, in fact, living or the remains of living things and not artifacts that resemble living things.
To make the claim of bona fide extraterrestrial life requires an extraordinary standard of proof.
Meteorites can actually come from earth. When a large meteor strikes, it can blast chunks of earth co-mingleted with meteorite fragments back into orbit, only to later return as meteorites. Could this be a possible explanation?
