Should we seed the solar system with life?

I was wondering why we don't just bombard the various moons and planets that could possibly sustain life with rockets loaded with earth life forms that may be able to survive.

How do we know the Mars rovers have not “contaminated” Mars with life from Earth?

Does NASA toss them in an oven or something or is the cold vacuum of space more than enough to kill even the most hearty viruses and bacteria on earth?

Need help finding cool space tech we use daily

Hi, I'm a comm student and I have the hard task to make (at least 3) videos about inventions that were first made for space travelling, but we now use in every day life. The core of this task is about finding some inventions that pushed the technological and sanitary development. I know for example that the technology we use in ultrasound scans come from NASA, as well as many other things. So I'm here to ask you: What are your favorite? What do you think others don't know?? What do you find extremely interesting??

Generation Ship VS DNA storage shuttle?

Would it be better to transport humanity to a new home world on a generation ship (a hulking mass designed to support a multigenerational population until one finally reaches a new home) or by packing a small craft with enough samples of DNA and the technology to “grow” a human population? I’m not gonna lie, the shuttle option sounds infinitely more efficient, there’s no disagreement there. But I’m still an advocate for the generation ship.

Space exploration fails for dumb/funny reasons

This evening a friend and I were discussing the Russian rocket failure due to its angular momentum sensors being hammered in upside down. We got on the subject of some of the more nin-com-poop ways rockets/space exploration has gone wrong, like the mars weather probe that mixed imperial and metric units, or the recent Chinese rocket test that turned into an accidental launch. What are your favorite funny/whoopsie-daisy fails in space exploration?

I'm designing a theoretical mid-60's Nasa moon base control room. I'm not focusing on a hyper realistic design but I was wondering what you fellow space enthusiasts would include in a control room for a base staging rocket launches and supporting human life.
