“I interpret it as indicating that life is more broadly distributed than restricted strictly to the planet earth,” Hoover told FoxNews.com. “This field of study has just barely been touched -- because quite frankly, a great many scientist would say that this is impossible.
In what he calls “a very simple process,” Dr. Hoover fractured the meteorite stones under a sterile environment before examining the freshly broken surface with the standard tools of the scientist: a scanning-electron microscope and a field emission electron-scanning microscope, which allowed him to search the stone’s surface for evidence of fossilized remains.
He found the fossilized remains of micro-organisms not so different from ordinary ones found underfoot -- here on earth, that is.
“The exciting thing is that they are in many cases recognizable and can be associated very closely with the generic species here on earth,” Hoover told FoxNews.com. But not all of them. “There are some that are just very strange and don’t look like anything that I’ve been able to identify, and I’ve shown them to many other experts that have also come up stumped.”

When you think about it, could be how life got started here on earth. similar to impregnation, meteor=sperm, earth=egg. It would not suprise me if this has happened elsewhere in our vast universe.

Always considered this to be the most viable way life started on Earth... but alas, no conclusive evidence. NEED TIME MACHINE, YES?

This still begs the question: How did life start anywhere anyhow?

Hence my comment about a meteor smashing into the meteor to infect the meteor.

I already commented on it in this thread, which is one of the threads OP could have found if he just had done a search on these boards before making another post on the same issue.
In short: Hoover has reported nothing really new, and the claims he makes regarding the potential existence of alien life are not unequivocally supported by the evidence. There is ample room left for other explanations, and reverting to alien life as the only plausible explanation seems in particular effective in grasping the attention of the popular media.
