Aliens are floating 25 miles above the Earth, Dr. Milton Wainwright, a cosmologist who works at the Department of Molecular Biology and Biotechnology at the University of Sheffield in England insists. He believes the ‘seeds of life’ are being directed at our planet.

Dr. Wainwright, whose findings have failed to convince many in the scientific community, emphasized that he has proof of these ‘extra-terrestrial organisms’. He has been trying to convince scientists since 2013.

According to Dr. Wainwright, the super-tiny organisms are contained in a microscopic metal globe which was created by super-intelligent aliens as part of a plan to ‘seed’ life on Earth.

He emailed details of his discovery to his students, some of whom posted what he said on Reddit, the entertainment, social networking and news website.

Scientists cannot explain where the microscopic sphere comes from. Dr. Wainwright believes it contains the precursors of life – a series of pre-cellular life forms that have the potential to eventually become living cells.

Are aliens watching us?

Alien enthusiasts point to this discovery as proof not only that aliens exist, but also that an ultra-advanced civilization is probably watching us.

Dr. Wainwright’s findings have been published in the Journal of Cosmology. However, many in the scientific community wonder about the robustness of the journal’s peer-review process.

Scientists know that genetic material can survive in outer space. Swedish researchers sent a tiny ‘plasmid’ into space in 2011 on the exterior of a TEXUS-49 rocket. It returned to Earth intact, despite enduring 1000°C.

Dr. Wainwright says the metallic sphere is made from vanadium and titanium and has a biological liquid oozing from its centre.

Dr. Wainwright said regarding the sphere:

“It is a ball about the width of a human hair, which has filamentous life on the outside and a gooey biological material oozing from its centre. We were stunned when X-ray analysis showed that the sphere is made up mainly of titanium, with a trace of vanadium.”

“One theory is it was sent to Earth by some unknown civilisation in order to continue seeding the planet with life. Unless of course we can find details of the civilisation that is supposed to have sent it in this respect it is probably an unprovable theory.”

Dr. Wainwright (above) is convinced aliens are planting the ‘seeds of life’ on our planet.

Dr. Wainwright and colleagues found the enigmatic sphere in particulate matter and dust gathered from the stratosphere. Balloons had been sent high up into the atmosphere to collect debris from space.

They say the sphere landed on one of the sampler balloons and left a small impact crater, indicating that it had come from space at very high speed.

Dr. Wainwright told Jason Koebler at Motherboard:

“We sent balloons and a sampler and found no pollen or grass, nothing up there to contaminate, it was completely pristine. For these reasons, we think [the contents] are coming from space.”

“All the time when you walk outside, you are being pelted with organisms that come from space.”

The Mail Online quote Dr. Wainright, who said:

“The critics claim that the samples we obtained must have come from Earth, that it that there must be a mechanism which can lift these particles from Earth to the stratosphere. However, we have provided evidence that the DNA-containing masses, plus other strange organisms we have isolated are not associated with pollen, grass and fungal spores on our sampler.”

“If our organisms came from Earth they must be contaminated with common Earth organisms and they are not. We will probably not be believed until Nasa repeats our findings.”

“I suspect that Nasa will then try and take the credit by claiming that their methods were somehow more sterile or precise.”
