In 2005 the ISRO group carried out a second stratospheric sampling experiment from 41 km altitude and reported the isolation of three new species of bacteria including one that they named "Janibacter hoylei" sp.nov. in honour of Fred Hoyle. However, these facts do not prove that bacteria on Earth originated in the cosmic environment. Samplings of the stratosphere have also been carried out by Yang "et al." (2005, 2009). During the experiment strains of highly radiation-resistant "Deinococcus" bacterium were detected at heights up to 35 km. Nevertheless, these authors have abstained from linking these discoveries to panspermia.
