Summary

In 2018, a groundbreaking discovery elevated a fascinating hypothesis when scientists found complex organic molecules in the water plumes bursting from Enceladus, one of Saturn’s icy moons. These molecules, essential building blocks for life, suggest that life's ingredients are potentially more widespread than we had previously thought..
Imagine tiny organisms, the ultimate hitchhikers, traversing the vastness of space, enduring the cold vacuum and the fiery entry through our atmosphere, to kickstart biology on a blue speck in the universe. It's a theory that turns the origin of life into an intergalactic adventure, suggesting that we, and all life on Earth, might just be aliens after all.
This case file, join the Theorists as they sling their primordial ooze and and pump the galaxy full of potential life with the scientific idea of…Panspermia
