    A little while after we happen to contaminate said planet with extremophiles accidentally brought aboard our probe/lander

    Possibly. Methinks in the next millennium, optimistically; would be most interesting, perhaps a glimpse into our distant past if we encounter some place that is host to microbes only. But first we have to avoid civilizational collapse and Kessler Syndrome, which IMO are more likely than interstellar travel in the next couple of centuries.

    Anyone who answers anything other than ‘I don’t know’ is likely not telling the truth.

      I’m not sure about that… @Assassassin@lemmy.world sounds rather confident.

    2287 they will find them on Titan, a moon of some remote planet. Later they find they transported it from earth to the planet with some exploration robot that landed there in the year 2123. It found suitable habitat and began to replicate, colonizing the planet by human contamination accident.
