But over the past years and decades we have found single-cellular lifeforms in places where just short time before we would have categorically rules out that life could exist, whether the critical factors are pressure, temperature, or toxic agents.
So, lets not go ballistic over these "extraterrestrial" cells. So far we only know that we do not know. If we could have explained the plagues that came over the Egyptians with red algas forming the beginning of the chain reaction, maybe we could explain this phenomenon as well sooner or later. Already going back to exotic explanations like e.t.-stuff is a bit too early, for my taste. if these particles are cells indeed, for the time being I stick with the assumption that they nevertheless are of terrestrial origin. Maybe an isolated cave deep inside the earth's crust that served as an isolated refugium for these cells, but got opened by geologic activity. Yes, that also is a hypothesis only - but currently not better or worse a hypothesis than to assume it is of extraterrestrial origin.

Yea the fact is they DON'T KNOW where the cells came from. I'm fully aware that they don't know where the cells came from but the fact that it has got no DNA got me excited even if it turned out to be terrestrial. Look Mom Look Mom NO DNA and it's a living thing. How cool!
Seeing something like this is creepy still
