I couldn't decide if this belongs in the Biology & Genetics forums or the Chemistry forum so I placed it here. Hope that isn't a problem.
As I'm sure most of you may already know. A biochemist has made a hypothesis that life originated from mars and came to earth on a meteorite.
How plausible does this hypothesis seem? There are a lot of other planets in our solar system. Not only that, but how does life originate somewhere then hitch a ride on a meteorite to earth?
This is one source. Earth life likely came from Mars There are many others.
Thoughts about this?
