I've read the NewScientist article, too.
An enigma, for the moment.

I don't understand his temporary, self-imposed *extraordinary fact*
suppression about getting these non-dna cells to replicate under such harsh
conditions - if it were true. I think he may regret not having kept that
little gem a better secret.

All in all, sounds like some more "cold fusion bullshit", to me!

Soon, we'll see.....

Cheers,
Pete

Thanks pete,


This is an interesting comparison:

Here is an electron pic of genuine red blood cells :

And take a look at the micrograph of the Red rain on page 11, figure 11
in Louis's paper at:
http://arxiv.org/PS_cache/astro-ph/pdf/0601/0601022.pdf


How similar are they!?, I'd say we are looking at red blood cells
probably mammalian, even the size matches.

And in fact, I notice that one theory the New Scientist article puts
forward is for it being 'bat blood', bats migrate in BIG numbers in
India, and if something hit a flock at high speed it could shower the
whole area with blood. (Similar events with flocks of Birds have
happened in the past, avian blood (and in fact body parts have been
identified as falling from the sky in the past) - sorry hope no one is
eating their lunch :)

If the estimation of total quantity was off by an order of magnitude
then it would all fit....

Morning, all,

If you're interested, here's the home page for Dr L. Godfrey's (or is it
G
Louis? It's 50/50 on his home page) study of the red rain, including a
picture of the particles:
