Some good friends of mine really enjoyed the panspermia ideas in Prometheus (2012), they found it deep, profound, fascinating.
At the time I found it underwhelming partly because panspermia was an old, old idea to me, even then. I rewatched Mission To Mars (2000) recently and was reminded how panspermia was used prominently then. Plus there's the classic 1993 TNG episode 'The Chase' of course. #sciencefiction
