Artist description
Supporters of the theory of Panspermia -- which posits that life on Earth originated in space -- have unveiled fresh research indicating the existence of living matter in the planet's upper atmosphere. In a paper presented Monday at an engineering conference in San Diego, California, a team of scientists from India and Britain said they had isolated a sample of air collected from Earth's stratosphere that contained clumps of living cells.

Artist History
Chandra Wickramasinghe, the scientist leading the project and a prominent Panspermia researcher, described the findings as evidence of "extraterrestrial microbial life." He touted the research as proof for his long-held belief that life on Earth originated from space, and not through a primordial mingling of chemicals on the planet itself, as many scientists believe.
"If there are no flaws in the argument, it's a complete vindication. It means we are creatures of the cosmos," said Wickramasinghe, a professor at Cardiff University in Wales, who presented his findings at a meeting of the International Society for Optical Engineering. He believes the findings will have a profound influence on future studies of the evolution of life on Earth.
