Hell they can't even decide if it has DNA or not -there are conflicting reports. Just because something is difficult to explain doesn't make it unlikely, (Anyone who follows tektite theory can tell you that, some people still refuse to accept they originate from Earth, usually because they can't 100% explain their formation) The fact remains we are surrounded by life, the atmosphere is full of life, look there first, exclude all possibilities and [then] start trying to look for 'Aliens', until then they should stop crying wolf, because if aliens ever do turn up, convincing people will be impossible!! They look like blood cells, they are the same size, shape etc. Now if you are telling me that 'they' cannot perform a simple test, to see if it is blood or not?? Well then this whole red rain thing is starting to smell of fish, very fishy in fact! Extraordinary claims require extraordinary proof, and that simply hasn't happened. BTW - I have a stone Bird bath in my Garden, and at the weekend whilst cleaning it, I noticed there was a red Algae growing in the water, not threads but tiny cell like structures!, under mag it looked superficially similar to the red rain! If I get chance I will try and snap a pic....

For some reason, I doubt this. >Yeah, I had that same problem with the idea. While it is easy to be critical and even devilishly satisfying to mock this theory, as long as we all agree that we don't agree with the proponents of the comet idea, expend the time in those details? (except Martin, who actually seems to be in contact with the 'researchers' and might influence positively what is going on out there). Still, just because it is an off-the-wall theory that seems to be in obvious trouble, it would take some more scientific explaining to discount the possibility that the mysterious red dust entered the atmosphere and and took a while to settle down as it combined in the droplets. Granted, three months if that is the number sounds crazy, but wind currents and gusts lifting it off the ground bherever it fell is an alternate to flaming them in absentia with the "geostationary" idea. Micrometeorites take a couple of weeks to settle.
