“ ...Organisms replicating at 300 degrees Celsius
and showing this kind of autofluorescence are currently
unknown to exist on earth, which is again an indication supporting
the view that these cells are possibly extraterrestrial.”

The earth may go through so many changes i.e. pole shift, super volcanic eruption, comet/asteroid, or nuclear war, that only such life could survive to begin again.

I have a theory about these cells that may seem a bit out there, so bare with me.
The fact that they thrive at such high temperatures and pressures suggests to me that these are life forms that were sent to begin life anew following a mass extinction.

I don't think these are seeds of life being planted here, I mean, wierder things have fallen from the sky.

In Russia, sometimes it rains cement

MOSCOW (Reuters) - Russian air force planes dropped a 25-kg (55-lb) sack of cement on a suburban Moscow home last week while seeding clouds to prevent rain from spoiling a holiday, Russian media said on Tuesday.
"A pack of cement used in creating ... good weather in the capital region ... failed to pulverize completely at high altitude and fell on the roof of a house, making a hole about 80-100 cm (2.5-3 ft)," police in Naro-Fominsk told agency RIA-Novosti.
Ahead of major public holidays the Russian Air Force often dispatches up to 12 cargo planes carrying loads of silver iodide, liquid nitrogen and cement powder to seed clouds above Moscow and empty the skies of moisture.

Really? Even 500 degrees F?
Scientists found a gold mine of bacteria almost two miles beneath the Earth’s surface.
The subterranean microorganisms, a division of Firmicutes bacteria, use radioactive uranium to convert water molecules into useable energy. Uranium is an element contained within the Earth’s crust and is an abundant source of energy.

I am not aware of any red blood or white blood cells that could survive and that appear to have no DNA. These cells do not behave as any other known to man.

There's no such thing as random. Everything is relative, what may seem as random in one perspective becomes order in another.
Chaos or randomness doesn't give rise to order.
We always had order since The Big Bang(if such event ever existed..). It was man who invented the concept of randomness to keep things that are beyond understanding.
Back to topic. No DNA, hmmm... 'Immortal Super Cells'?? Unless this cell has a mechanism like DNA, that is just as 'fragile', we could think the cells as such..
These might be the stuff The Gods are made of.
