Wickramasinghe speaks with Biocivilizations.com about Panspermia and Pandemic

Another profound interview

April 8, 2020

Professor Chandra Wickramasinghe is best known for his work on the modern version of the panspermia theory – life in the form of microbes has the cosmic origin – conceived and developed in collaboration with his PhD supervisor and a long-term collaborator, the great astronomer Sir Fred Hoyle (1915-2001).[..

Viral info from Wickramasinghe

Cambridge scholar and cosmic life propopent dishes on the deal

April 7, 2020

The entry of microbes and viruses is discussed in an appendix in diseases from space. Whilst large fragments like pebbles and millimetre-sized bits get heated as they enter the atmosphere at speeds of 10km/s, and many burn as meteors, smaller structures survive. For example an atom or molecule survives and even a virus coated[..

Tusk sends letter of protest to editor, hopes to avoid litigation

March 19, 2020

To the Editor of Space.com: I am writing to protest misinformation in your article, “No, the coronavirus didn’t come from outer space. We promise” [March 16, 2020, Space.com], and demand an immediate published retraction and apology to the subject of your article, Dr. Wickramasinghe.[..

A 3rd communication with Wickramasinghe on Coronavirus from space

Junior scientist Graham Lau plays pseudoscience card on veteran Nature author on Space.com

March 18, 2020

Dr. Wickramsinghe was kind again to share some preprint journal articles and original communications today with the Tusk. See below and earlier posts concerning Wickramasinghe et al. and Coronavirus from space. Last night, sciencey talk pup Graham Lau took a real shot at Dr. C in a terribly written article by Chelsea Gohd in Space.com[..

Chandra Wickramasinghe on the NASA Mars announcement

Panspermia increasingly vindicated

June 7, 2018

The Tusk is honored to maintain a digital acquaintance with distinguished Professor Chandra Wickramasinghe, who in the 1970’s with Sir Fred Hoyle established — and to my mind proved — the theory of Panspermia. We had been corresponding concerning the jaw dropping recent genetic study, when NASA announced today’s press conference. I asked Dr.[..

International Space Station: Window scum supports Wickramasinghe and Sir Fred’s long contention of teeming life in space

August 22, 2014

The space station is orbiting the earth in a total vacuum, there is no air, so it is a total defiance of the laws of physics to say these organisms were blown into space from Earth. ‘The only explanation is that they have come from elsewhere in space, and this supports long-held theories[..

Wickramasinghe: Death from Above

July 29, 2011

Check out this great summary paper from the irrepressible Chandra Wickramasinghe. Wickramasinghe just keeps going and going and going — even without his side-kick Sir Fred Hoyle. Hoyle and Wickramasinghe’s decades-old contention that life evolved in space and spreads via comets is convincing to me. Not only do they have substantial data indicating this to be[..

Avi Loeb

Hmmm...

March 29, 2021

Avi Loeb is no household name, but he wants to be. The chairman of the Department of Astronomy at Harvard has appeared on more than 50 podcasts since the start of the year. Given a minimum of one hour per podcast, I’d ask for a week’s pay back if I were Harvard. The guy[..

Read the papers: Covid is probably from Space

Life and disease in space confirmed by Russians in 2018

January 26, 2021

In 2018, on January 23, Russia was first to publish the discovery of space based life obtained by appropriate technical means in a collaborative international scientific effort. Based on genes swiped with a tampon from the OUTSIDE of an International Space Station window, three respected Russian laboratories, and twelve well-credentialed scientists, published a peer-reviewed[..

Ted Steele and the real deal

Covid from Space team summarizes the science

November 12, 2020

From Dr. Ted Steele, to a redacted correspondent (11/10/20): Dear Sir, I represent a group of international scientists led by the renowned astrophysicist/astrobiologist Professor N. Chandra Wickramasinghe PhD (Cardiff), Professor Reginald M Gorczynski MD PhD ( Toronto Health Network, UoT) and other colleagues from the UK, Australia, Canada, Japan, USA, and Russia.[..

Retraction?!?!

Imperious MedComm editor James Henderson Naismith defiles science by "requesting" Covid paper retraction from Professor Chandra Wickramasinghe

Astrobiological Airbrush

Avi Loeb and Manasvi Lingam re-write science history to eliminate modern founders of astrobiology

September 15, 2020

Havard’s Avi Loeb, and Florida Tech’s Manasvi Lingam, do science and their own reputations a great disservice in a recently published fake history of the term astrobiology. In their self-described “Treatise,” they present the subject as the result of a simple progression of people and ideas, and provide 120 references purporting to follow the growth[..

Pinned Post: Four key papers on Covid from Space

From Steele, Wickramasinghe, Howard et al.

August 1, 2020

If you are interested in Covid from Space this is your summer reading. While it is preceded by a variety of other articles, in fact many hundreds if you include the wider literature of Panspermia, these two publication are the starting point for truly understanding Covid. They tell us more about the disease in[..

A masterpiece of understanding

Dr. Wickramasinghe explains it all in new video

July 25, 2020

I’ve had the distinct privilege of being in regular touch with Chandra Wickramasinghe this year. Daily emails and regular Skype and Zoom calls have become a wonderful (wonder-full) intellectual dialogue. I am amazed at his ability to stay inspirational and relevant despite his ostracism from the field HE founded: Astrobiology.[..

Charles Cockell re-writes history; Willfully ignores founders of Astrobiology

May 30, 2020

Charles S. Cockell deeply injured his discipline and reputation in an upcoming June editorial in Astronomy and Geophysics from the Royal Astronomical Society. His objective in the piece was to review the history of Astrobiology, yet he fails to reference the founders of the modern field: Sir Fred Hoyle and Professor Chandra Wickramasinghe.[..

“Viruses, ET, and the octopus from space: The return of panspermia”

Cosmos Magazine yanks great article on Disease from Space

May 26, 2020

UPDATE: Article back up!? The single best article I have read on Panspermia and its corollary, Disease from Space, was written just two years ago. An Australian lecturer and writer named Stephen Fleischfresser authored an extraordinary piece in Cosmos, a science publishing platform sponsored by the Royal Institute of Australia. I found the wonderfully[..

Coronavirus, Panspermia, and Disease from Space

A collection of recent papers

May 20, 2020

I’m putting the recent papers concerning Covid from Space from Steele, Wickramasinghe, et al. here together for the time being; and will be developing a bibliography along the lines of The Bib for the YDIH soon. Stay tuned… We propose that the new coronavirus which first appeared in the Hubei province of China was probably[..

Press release on Coronavirus from Space

April 28, 2020

Professor Chandra Wickramasinghe and his team of researchers believe that the novel coronavirus arrived on meteorites in Oct 2019 and instantaneously infected hundreds of thousands of people through the atmosphere, as meteorites were reported in China, Northern Italy, Michigan in October 2019. This is somewhat at odds with the mainstream assertion that it originated[..

Infectious microbes inside cosmic dust collected from OUTSIDE surface of Space Station windows

ISS window swipes provide evidence for life in outer space

April 25, 2020

This has been a big couple of years for “UFOs.” Polling says that 33% of Americans believe that intelligent alien life forms have visited our humble planet in visible spacecraft. However, if you ask people if they believe that microbial life forms (bateria, viruses, diatomaceous plankton, tardigrades and the like) are raining more or[..

Support from China for Covid from Space

Jiangwen Qu of China's Department of Infectious Disease Control joins Wickramasinghe on February Covid chapter

April 19, 2020

I love Jiangwen Qu. He lives on the other side of the planet, I’ve never even traded an email with the guy, but I could hug his neck. Here he is publishing as recently as February 16, 2019 with Dr. Wickramasinghe in a full-throated support of Covid from space. The truth might logically come[..
