Panspermia....nothing wrong with that. If that was the case in general, given the enormous numbers of Sunlike stars in the galaxy, let alone the entire universe, with all things being equal there's probably billions of planets with humanoid entities running around on them in the universe and millions in each galaxy....if they all evolved from the same distributed protoplasm.

One way to spread you kind throughout the galaxy...launch the basics and see what a few million/billion years will do
