If you find the program awakens more interest in the concept , look at the book co written by the main character N.C.Wickramasinghe who was featured throughout the documentry . The book published in 1981 by Fred Hoyle and N.C.Wickramasinghe is called 'DISEASES FROM SPACE'. Both of these men are notable Astrophysicists , Fred hoyle was the opponent of the Expanding universe theory way back and in jest called it the "Big Bang theory", the name that it carries today! He was also the writer of some notable Sci Fi books way back in the 60's., most of which have alien life as their basic plot.
hope this info provides some reference to the credibility and further pursuit of this subject.I think i remember the red rain phenomena being discussed on this forum once before.

ps i believe panspermia is not a recent theory . i remember some association of it with the famous scientist arrhenius and beyond.
