Could life on Earth be the result of directed panspermia, meaning that it is of extraterrestrial origin and was sown on Earth deliberately?

Understanding The Concept of Directed Panspermia for Humankind’s Origin

Is it possible that we are of extraterrestrial origin?

The topic of the origin of man excites and has always excited people and hypotheses for it are not one and two.

We can begin with the purely religious scriptures, which say that God created man “in his own image and likeness”. Then,  let’s go through Darwin’s theory, in which the scientist convincingly claims that man evolved into an ape.

Finally, let’s get to the increasingly common concept that life was “sown” on Earth by an advanced alien civilization. And these are just 3 of the main points, reflecting on the millennial mystery of the origin of life on our planet.

Despite the various scientific claims, the circumstances surrounding the appearance of our kind remain unclear. As a start, there is no clear answer about the exact time we appeared on Earth. Moreover, what can we make of the indisputable discoveries of archaeology proving that the ancient civilizations were much more advanced than the modern humanoid race?

This is evident in countless sites around the world, most notably the Egyptian pyramids. The remnants of more advanced ancient civilizations open many questions to which conservative science cannot give concrete answers.

What is Directed Panspermia and why should we consider it an option?

In recent decades, more and more experts in various scientific fields have supported the theory of directed panspermia which suggests that life was created on Earth by a higher extraterrestrial mind.

One of the most notable figures that supported this theory was Nobel Prize winner Francis Crick, a British molecular biologist, biophysicist, and neurologist. He was the discoverer of the double-helix structure of the DNA molecule.

Crick fervently supported the notion of a deliberate transfer of life to our planet, called “directed panspermia.” Most of his colleagues did not like the unorthodox ideas that the scientist defended during his lifetime, but he was brave enough to withstand their pressure and continue his extensive research.

According to him:

“We assume that on some distant planet about four billion years ago, a form of higher being evolved that, like us, discovered science and technology but developed them at a much higher level than ours.”

Dr. Francis Crick wrote this in his book “Life Itself: Its Origin and Nature” that the first traces of life on Earth date back about 3.6 billion years ago. However, the first fossil record containing evidence for the existence of simple organisms is only 0.6 billion years old.

He found serious evidence supporting the so-called Directed Panspermia in the fossil records. According to his thesis, the microorganisms that brought life to Earth should have appeared suddenly instead of evolving with time as science suggests. The scientist was able to confirm the lack of any evidence of transitional life forms. Which, in turn, greatly discredits the existing and widespread belief in the emergence and evolution of organisms.

Crick’s conclusion, based on his many studies, is that the roots of our life form come from elsewhere in the universe. Most likely, from another planet where a much more advanced mind and form of existence has evolved. From there, the seeds (specific microorganisms) were probably transported by spacecraft to Earth and scattered (sown) on its surface.

Additional Research and Theories

Another existing hypothesis in this direction is that the human species is genetically modified by alien beings and designed with a particle of their own DNA.

Renowned British scientist Paul Davis not only believes in directed panspermia but also suggests that there may be an alien message encoded in our DNA. The message, he said, will only be deciphered once humanity advances technologically.

Here is another example. Ellen Lloyd is a mathematician, scientist, writer, and researcher with over 20 years in the field of ancient documents and artifacts about ancient civilizations. In her book, “Voices from Legendary Times”, Ellen claims that millions of years ago the Earth was inhabited not only by humans but also by aliens. And that UFO visits to our planet have been a practice that has never stopped during the ages.

According to even bolder theories, it’s not just an alien civilization that has sown life or designed humans on Earth. Various representatives from various points in space have visited the globe and each of them has left its own genetic material and imprint on it. It is claimed that this is due to the diversity of ethnicities and external features of people around the world.

However, many more conservative scientists believe that there is nothing supernatural in the emergence of life on Earth. That it originated here and evolved quite naturally from lower, single-celled microorganisms to more complex ones, reaching animals and later humans.

What can we make of this?

There is still no clear answer to the question of how life originated on our planet. Well, science has its definite explanation, but religion and esotericism do not agree with it at all.

We continue to wonder if life originated here or somewhere beyond, in another part of the universe? We wonder if our existence is really a natural continuation of evolution or an alien experiment whose purpose remains a mystery to humans for now. Perhaps one day directed panspermia will either be confirmed or proven completely wrong.

What each of us certainly needs to know, however, is that life is a gift, and it is foolish to waste it on unconscious existence, disputes, and unnecessary dramas. It is likely that none of us will learn the truth of our existence during our life just like our ancestors didn’t know the things we do today.
