"DNA: The Alien Code"...The Origin of Life and the Shocking Truth About Our Genetic Past Evolutionary theory by Charles Darwin changed our knowledge of life in the mid-19th century. One question remained: Where did life begin? We know a lot about the creation of our universe but how life began remains a mystery. We investigate Nobel winner Francis Crick's novel idea of DNA structure in this intriguing inquiry. Crick's controversial argument that DNA, the cornerstone of life, may have originated off-planet changes our view of life on Earth. Crick believed that an intelligent alien society engineered and spread DNA through panspermia. Could extraterrestrials have engineered ourselves and all life on Earth? Do we derive from alien "hybrids," designed to carry a vanished civilization's genes? This book explores Crick's bold proposal by reviewing convincing scientific evidence for directed panspermia, the idea that life was deliberately carried across space to nurture intelligence on numerous planets, including Earth. From research with extremophiles-microbes that can survive space-to frightening UFO sightings and official declarations of alien contacts, the evidence is increasing. Microbes may have "hitchhiked" on comets, asteroids, meteors, planetary pieces, or cosmic dust. DNA patterns that suggest an artificial origin support Crick's bold prediction. DNA may be an intergalactic artifact that could reveal our cosmic destiny, according to mathematicians, astrophysicists, and Crick. But the narrative continues. New findings about the Last Universal Common Ancestor (LUCA) and alien life's involvement in intelligent species evolution pose intriguing questions about our destiny. Close reading of Genesis' original passages reveals alien influence in human development. Ready to meet our creators-or their descendants? Could humans and aliens merge? Join the search for life's origins as we digest the idea that our DNA may hold the solution to the universe's biggest riddles.
