NASA discovered fossils of bacteria found on a meteorite, proving there is indeed life outside of earth.

nope, this is the first time this has happened. Pretty sure proteins or something were discovered before, but no actual proof of life.

and not sure of trolling about "bacteria only giving diarrhea", but if not then you should get learneded on them. without bacteria life would not exist. They were the first life forms in existence on Earth and because of them we have an atmosphere that can support other forms of life. Your body has actually 10 times as many bacteria cells in it than eukaryotic cells. Your poop is 60% bacteria by weight. Gasoline exists because of bacteria. They really are the most important aspect of life.

showing that bacteria exist elsewhere proves that other forms of life are possible, as they are the precursor

Sort of cool i guess. I dont think this is really that much of a shock for me, i figured we'd find some bacteria or something sooner or later.
Whether or not intelligent life exists anywhere else is another question.

This is really weird, not all that suprising though. I thought they already found bacteria

nope they only found lots of organic compounds in space. In other cases, they only found resistant bacteria from earth still alive in space. But it has been theorized, but observed after now.

So we arent aliens really, we are the result of its evolution

trolling aside, obviously nothing would survive an asteroid impact if it were on the asteroid, this is cool.
in other news, NASA lost something recently, a $464m shuttle which failed to deploy a satellite. so they THINK it's somewhere in the southern pacific ocean. I figured these things had gps or something that you could find it regardless of where it is but guess not.

So if poop is 60 percent bacteria, then we probably found alien scat?  Yay we aren't alone!!!!!!

haha. they should have put it somewhere where that wouldn't happen if possible. sort of baffles me how they could essentially lose it. i mean I'm sure (I hope) they'll find it. but still

You'd be surprised at how these are put together, theres not alot of protection on the sat launch vehicles compared to say the manned space shuttle... And the electronics they use are extremely sensitive so anything they dont plan for can mess it up... friction coming back into the atmosphere burns shit up fast.

Take a look at the ancient Puma Punku ruins and tell me you don't think we have already had non-earthly influence on our planet.

Prove me wrong. You can't. I can't prove it either, but at least I accept that fact that I don't know it was done.

Look back at the Egyptian pyramids and tell me a giant unicorn didn't come from Mars and build them by using a mixture of its own shit and cum for bricks, and then telepathically put the bricks into place all whilst fucking a gigantic squid with dicks instead of tenticles.
