Meaning of "panspermist" in English

A panspermist is a person who supports or believes in the theory of panspermia. This theory suggests that life on Earth may have originated from microorganisms or chemical precursors of life present in outer space, which were brought here via meteoroids, comets, or asteroids. Proponents believe that life is not confined to Earth but might be distributed throughout the universe, potentially leading to the development of life on other planets under favorable conditions.
