Even if they did send it to seed life one thing hits home...they were obviously 3 billion years too late.

Actually it's one of the best interpretations of seeds falling onto fallow ground. What they are saying now, is that some of the seeds didn't even get to the ground, and that they have found the leftovers still in the tin. All very biblical. I wonder is there any more word about the DNA...that'll be interesting X millions/billions of years on.

Good find!
Very interesting indeed.
I personally think there's overwhelming evidence that alien life exists and most likely seeded our planet with life. It makes more sense then the magic of abiogenesis.
Science always comes to a consensus about things and reaches a conclusion based on the available evidence. For instance, scientist will tell you, the reason that there will not be any danger if the LHC creates black holes is because these black holes will quickly evaporate because of Hawking radiation. The problem here is, Hawking radiation is hypothetical and it hasn't been measured.
Scientist say this because of the available evidence which brings them to the conclusion that Hawking radiation exists. There's more evidence for the existence of extraterrestrial life than there is for Hawking radiation, yet we can't reach any conclusion based on the available evidence whether extraterrestrials exist? Of course we can and the accumulation of evidence overwhelmingly supports the existence of extraterrestrials.
You would have to believe that earth has the "right conditions" for life and these conditions can't be repeated in our universe. That would be okay to contemplate in 1940 but it doesn't make much sense today.
I think panspermia and directed panspermia are the best explanations of how earth and the universe is seeded with life. If we become capable of doing this we will do the same thing.
Wainwright suggests that there is a possibility that this metal object may have landed in space from a comet. “For the moment, we are content to say that the life-containing titanium sphere came from space, possibly from a comet."

What life did it contain?
