The idea that life is a cosmic, rather than a purely terrestrial
phenomenon, has progressed from scientific heresy to mainstream
science within the short timespan of a few decades. The theory of
cometary panspermia developed by Fred Hoyle and the present author
in the 1970's has been vindicated by a spate of new discoveries in
astronomy and biology, and also with startling new evidence of
microbial fossils in meteorites and micrometeorites. The recent
Kepler Telescope searches for exoplanets have indicated the
presence of over 100 billion habitable planets separated by only a
few light years, thus making panspermia and the transfer of
microbial life between such planets an inevitable fact. The book
presents a comprehensive and up-to-date account of the
Hoyle-Wickramasinghe theory of cometary panspermia in a manner
accessible to a wide general readership.
