        The corresponding author is Chandra Wickramasinghe, who has form in this area, having claimed two decades ago that flu also came from space — an idea roundly criticized as bunk. He has also claimed that SARS — an earlier coronavirus — had the same origins. Ditto.

        Well, at lease he's an equal-opportunity fabulist.

        The whole reason we call them illegal aliens is because they’re subject to our laws.

              If coronaviruses have existed for a long time and this one looks a lot like other viruses, why would one think Covid 19 hitched a ride on meteorite landing Oct 11,2019?

              Did the other coronaviruses come from a much earlier meteorite?
