Basically, this means that there is life out there. No question about it. It also strengthens theories that Earth's life was seeded by some interspacial event. (I.E. a meteor crash)

Well, this "life" isn't carbon based, so I'm not sure about that, but this is huge news.

life doesn't have to carbon based. Its been proven that other elements, such as silicon, are a completely viable substitute

I meant that it doesn't necessarily support the seeding hypothesis for Earth, since we are carbon based, and this stuff is not.

TL;DR
But no, seriously.. this is old news. Your talking to the space nerd here who keeps on top of things like this. There is quite a good chance.. and is probably the most likely theory being offered by modern science that a comet is the reason we exist. Comet's contain the building blocks for basically all our life.
Awesome discussion topic, by the way. Love to see other's interested in astronomy.
