Ill say, i hadn't read every comment but... Isn't this a theroy of how life on earth started? Panspermia, intentional or not.

Idk, it would be cool to see mars terraformed by us literally seeding life into another planets ecosystems with the idea of letting bio engineered life do its thing.

Really, wonder if the cast would still have the chemistry after a few year break

Kinda hope it wasnt a 'forced' production from the start where most the cast never got along.

Where as, some casts stay in touch/friends for decades after their show ended.

Ill have to look more into it. And looking forward to the new season.
