San Francisco – It would be very hard for microbes to get all the way from Earth or Mars out to the ocean moons, a new study suggests. If there are creatures swimming in the buried oceans of the outer solar system, they’re probably not related to us, new research suggests.
Some scientists believe that life has hopped from world to world around the solar system, aboard chunks of rock blasted into space by comet or asteroid impacts. Indeed, there’s a school of thought that the life teeming here on Earth is actually native to Mars, which likely boasted habitable conditions earlier than our own planet did. (This rock-riding idea is known as “lithopanspermia,” a subset of the broader panspermia notion, which envisions spread by whatever means, either natural or guided by an intelligent hand.)

But what are the odds that such putative pioneers could colonize the habitable real estate much farther out — specifically, the Jupiter moon Europa and the Saturn satellite Enceladus, both of which harbor big oceans of salty liquid water beneath their ice shells?

As reported in the February 2018 issue of The MUFON Journal, the USS Princeton, a guided missile cruiser sailing about 100 miles from San Diego detected unusual radar signals from an object in the region.  The signals were erratic and did not correspond to any known aircraft.  Two F/A-18s from the USS Nimitz were launched to intercept the object.  Commander David Fravor, a 24-year veteran in the U.S. Navy pursued to the object and took video images of what he described as a “Tic Tac”-shaped object, about 40 feet in length.  The “Tic Tac” is shown in the center of the image on the left.

Recently, five Navy veterans were interviewed by Popular Mechanics magazine about their experiences following the engagement of Commander Fravor with the object.  Unusual radar signals came from the object as it would immediately alter its altitude, sometimes at 80,000 feet and at other times at 30,000 feet.  The UFO gave off a phosphorescent glow at night and would “dart around in various directions,” said Gary Voorhis, who witnessed the object through binoculars aboard the USS Princeton

Was there and could there still be life on Mars?  After examining a series of NASA Rover photographic images, an Ohio professor claims that there is likely evidence of both insect and reptilian life still exists on Mars.  Professor R. William Romoser, Ph.D., is a professor emeritus of arbovirology (the study of viruses transmitted by arthropods).  Professor Romoser, in a formal statement at the University of Ohio, says that there is an insect form of life now living on Mars.  The photograph to the left was taken by a Mars Rover.  To the left of the Rover’s track, Professor Romoser claims is an insect-like, creature (see insert).
