By the way, if we went extinct completely again, would we witness an another panspermia event or would something more unique happen? ---

Not sure yet. I think I have a tentative idea, other than starting in the Hydrothermal vents. ---

It seems that large Marine Snow aggregates can travel to the bottom the ocean in a few days. > **[Biological pump | Processes in the biological pump](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biological_pump#Processes_in_the_biological_pump)** > > In the diagram on the right, phytoplankton convert CO2, which has dissolved from the atmosphere into the surface oceans (90 Gt yr−1), into particulate organic carbon (POC) during primary production (~ 50 Gt C yr−1). Phytoplankton are then consumed by copepods, krill and other small zooplankton grazers, which in turn are preyed upon by higher trophic levels. Any unconsumed phytoplankton form aggregates, and along with zooplankton faecal pellets, sink rapidly and are exported out of the mixed layer... > A single phytoplankton cell has a sinking rate around one metre per day. Given that the average depth of the ocean is about four kilometres, it can take over ten years for these cells to reach the ocean floor. However, through processes such as coagulation and expulsion in predator fecal pellets, these cells form aggregates. These aggregates, known as marine snow, have sinking rates orders of magnitude greater than individual cells and complete their journey to the deep in a matter of days.[8] ---

How does this help preserve the cell matter though? ---

Dust from land going into the oceans can contain clay. DNA can bind to clay to form aggregates as a part of the Marine Snow formation process, and is something like several order of magnitude times more stable than simply free floating nucleic acids, which is why we have been able to sequence 2.5 million year old DNA. Those same clay particles aggregates can trap cell matter, too. So, it could be possible for cell material at the surface to be transported to the bottom of the ocean within a few days. ---

Quick question, do you see the Mayan unicode characters as they are, or as boxes? When viewing on a University Computer, they are viewable. Perhaps it is a Windows 10 versus Windows 11 thing? ---
