not that i doubt indian scientific methods or anything but i found myself wondering while watching if; the red rain samples were caught as they fell from the sky, or;
they were captured in some intermediary receptacle before testing?

I always thought that red rain was pollen or something like that.

That was a weird video...I never seen anything like it...thanks for sharing it.

I read about this at least a year ago. Why does it seem there is no major reaction to it? Why are we still tossing about the idea that there is bacterial life from Mars dust samples from YEARS ago, but you have scientific proof showing there is something going on right here on earth with these cells and NO ONE seems to care?

I just mean it seems there has been no major reaction from the public. When they thought there was possible alien microbes from the Mars samples it was all over CNN and what not and people were talking about it. It guess the only alien life most want to hear about is little grey men with big eyes.

LoL. Well.....that would be interesting. The red rain water was pretty weird too. I need to look into it cause I never even heard of it until tonight.

Uhh!!, Hmmm.... that video seems a bit "cheesy", voiceover from 1950's horror films etc. w00t.gif

Disturbing, but possible......
?uestPeace
Strange but anything is possible.. Thanks for sharing.

OMG, Thats trippy as!

Why was it only is one area if it really was an "alien invasion"?

Apparently, there are also other kinds of colored rains: article.

These cells may not be alien in fact I would argue that they are earth based since we found them here. Alien life even if it is just a microbe comes from another and answers the age old question if we are alone in the universe.

While I find it fascinating we find new Earthly life forms all the time, finding alien life would still be a more important discovery, imagine the opportunity to study an alien life form completely different from anything found here on Earth.

Angel periods. Things like this happen and governments are more interested in how much oil and money they could make.. The rain might be a cause of some chemical crap and really serious.. or it could be nothing I bet if money could be made from it it would be investigated more.. It's still pretty interesting!!

Red algae particles.

They can become airborne when lake beds dry up and wind sweeps up the sand and dust into the atmosphere. Interesting thing is that dust particles can get sucked into the jet streams and wind up half way across the planet. The "red rain" in India could have originated in Latin America.

So - the guy looks under a microscope and sees things that look sort of like cells. When he tries to find out what the DNA says he discovers that these things do not have DNA. Since all life on earth depends on DNA and these things don't have DNA, he says this means that they must be living organisms of Extra-Terrestrial origin.

Did it ever occur to anyone that, perhaps, they don't have DNA because they actually aren't alive? Maybe they are dust particles that just look like cells...
