A group of British scientists sent a balloon 27km up into the sky to see what they could find and it came back bearing micro-organisms that they are claiming could only have come from outer space.
There claim goes on to say that there is no known way any earth organism could get up so high, and so the only other option is that it is incoming. The organisms are apparently "unusual" and also contain DNA as well lending further credence to the theory that life on Earth came from outer space in the beginning.
They will be running the test again in October to see if they can duplicate it.

Personally, I just wonder if someone ran out of funding.
