Could Fossils of Ancient Life From Earth Reside On the Moon?
MarkWhittington writes Does the moon contain fossils of billions of years old organisms from Earth? That theory has been laid out in recent research at the Imperial College of London, reported in a story in Air and Space Magazine by Dr. Paul Spudis, a lunar and planetary geologist. The implications for science and future lunar exploration are profound. Scientists have known for decades that planets and moons in the Solar System exchange material due to impacts. A large meteor smashes into a planet, Mars for example, and blasts material into space. That material eventually finds itself landing on another planet, Earth in this case. Mars rocks have been discovered on Earth since the 1980s. Other rocks from the moon and, it is surmised, Mercury have also been found, blasted into space billions of years ago to eventually find themselves on Earth.
On earth are you asking me?
Err... I mean no.
(Like you expected the first comment to not suck anyway)
New Bukkake theory that was already proposed by nephilimfree. I'm sure he will feel vindicated that his"theory" of the flood putting life on the moon now has scientific backing.
