Just the meteor that wiped out the dinosaurs could've flung countless extremophile species into to space, hurling them in all directions to destinations unknown to kickstart life anew on a close by, similarly situated rock. We know precious little about the cornucopium of microscopic life that surrounds us in the trillions, but even without really meaning too just cursory glance revealed creatures capable both braving the vacuum of space and can survive the long journey to another star by entering an indefinite state of suspended animation. And that's just the creature we know about. With how easy this one was to find, I've no doubt there are countless more just as sturdy, if not more so. Tens of trillions of creatures, ready on standby to hitch the next ride out of here and bring forth the miracle of life ever deeper into Empyrea Incognita.
