    It would be interesting to do DNA sequencing on that bacteria, assuming that it still exists. Being exposed to cosmic radiation without an atmosphere, mutated bacteria might have actually been much more dangerous than any other life-form that is not from the Earth. Pathogens are the way they are because of the hosts that they infect. If, hypothetically, there was life on Mars and somehow we brought it back to earth, is very unlikely that it would have any effect on life on earth, unless we have close common ancestors.

    Love the typewriters in the back

    The beginning of a horror story…

    Yep those tools japed the whole world…Animules…ya evil ones.

    we could find some real nasty virus or other life that could destroy us OR we could find a cure for some very bad earth diseases. who knows?

    For pandemic quarantines to work, it would have to apply to the richest 0.0001%, the jet-set crowd that has lunch in Tokyo and dinner in Los Angeles. These are the first-infectors for the rest of the planet.

    It's interesting to wonder if there's a possibility that the Apollo missions may have 'brought something back'. If you're the building blocks of life, Earth is relatively warm and has liquid water and a wealth of reproductive opportunities if you can connect. The moon has also protected Earth from a barrage of late bombardments of other stuff containing the building blocks of life, but maybe evolved. Perhaps, after nearly 60 years of alien stuff floating around in the air, we're all secret Selenites now. I mourn the loss of the thousand or so tardigrades lost when the Beresheet mission to the moon unfortunately malfunctioned. Firstly because they're so cute but mainly because they're tough little buggers and hitting a solid surface at 3,000 kph? Any survivors are eventually going to be looking at us with cooling and unsympathetic eyes.

    Was it Aldous Huxley that said: "If there is one thing we can learn from history, it is that we don't learn from history"?

    All of this conjecture around the false belief that "germs" spread from thing to thing, and place to place….lol. But you know…"psyience!"

    NASA has a substantial planetary protection program, but it seems that they mostly work on protecting Mars and some icy moons from infection by Earth microbes. I have not heard what they plan for the Mars sample return, but they must have plans to avoid contamination of the Mars samples by Earth organic material or they will waste their time on analysis. The containment should work both ways, with some small additional work.

    Moral of the story: it's not the Bat Guano that is the problem, it's people messing with it, that is the problem… Humanity seems to be doomed to repeat the mistakes of the past…

    First of all, everyone knows NASA hired Stanley Kubrick to invent Tang, a substance known to be toxic to all xeno-organisms, which is the real reason they brought it on board and why it was sold to the public; it's as much a vaccine against the reptilification of humanoids as it is a profit center for freemasonry. Do your research.

    Second, one wonders whether panspermic organisms are still pelting our planet and haven't been discovered yet. Enough meteorites hit earth that one wonders, and if you put this in the middle of the butterfly effect it has some interesting ramifications.

    True,,

  14. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Gregoria Gregg says:

    This makes me think that maybe there is life elsewhere. If something hit the earth and ejected some sort of life into space and it hit another earth like planet then….

    take all of the mars stuff to the moon. problem solved.
