You know we just received 8 ounces of dust from an asteroid. It's pretty impressive that they could send a robot 20 million miles, have it land on the rock, scoop up some dust and return it to Earth. It landed exactly where they wanted it to. Round trip- 44 million miles. Supposedly, it might be the key to the origin of us. I know I came from out of my mom's womb but I don't really want to know all the details. That aside, was it worth the X-billion it cost to find out something that we pretty much know. A bunch of dust condensed billions of years ago and out of pure luck we were created.
Distant aliens: it's those damn UFO's again.
Microbes: give em a chance.
