It’s certainly interesting, although the AI appears to be a bit broken atm leading to inevitable extinction as the creatures are too stupid to look for food. This will be fixed soon and then I shall be evolving things again!

We are unlikely to encounter a planet made out of aerogel, but it does indicate that if you had a very, very favourable set of impact conditions (slow asteroid impact into an ocean) you might be able to retreive some viable bacteria.
