Meteorite brings alien life to earth
NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC reckoned that a meteorite that plunged into Canada's Tagish Lake contains organic matter older than our Sun.

Boffins looking at the meteorite say that it could provide vital information about how life appeared on Earth in the first place.

Scott Messenger, of the NASA Johnson Space Center in Houston, Texas, said that most of the meteorite's material is about the same age as our solar system, but the microscopic organic globules are far older.

The organic matter cannot have been formed where the meteorite itself was born because that part of the solar system was too parky to support life. So the alien matter must have come from outside the solar system where after journey of trillions of miles it ends up in Canada.
