One theory of how life arose on earth is that of panspermia, wherein single celled organisms like bacteria hitch-hike on a comet or meteor which then impacts the Earth. If that was the case, then we are all alien descendants. Such a meteorite has possibly been found in Sri Lanka! http://www.technologyreview.co.....-fireball-fragments/The rock contains fossilized remains of carbon marine life, which scientists have concluded could not have been the result of contamination upon entering our atmosphere. Of course such a controversial find will have to be reviewed, but if the discovery stands up to scrutiny, these fossils are extra-terrestrial, and prove life exists elsewhere in the universe.
