>Thoughts on panspermia?
I think astroecology is an insufferably cool field of biology that we should be spending billions of dollars on, but I also think it's very much a "imagine studying marine biology, but you can only look at what's on the dry sand bar" kind of situation. We're very much limited by the technology and budgets of our current time, completely at the mercy of needless hypotheticals.
I vaguely recall NASA having found an interesting bit of rock that might be a shellfish fossil of some kind on Mars, but we won't know for sure unless we can bring a sample back and that can't happen because they don't have the money to do that.
