I understand that Abiogenesis is currently the accepted theory for origin of life.

Are/were there any thorough scientific studies done on possibility of seeding of life from cosmological factors? Studies that clarified some controversial/debated ideas: HARs, 'contamination' from alien worlds, etc., (Not pseudo-scientific theories)

I don't see a claim here to try to prove or refute. – Flimzy Oct 20 '11 at 0:53
A couple mistakes in your question: Abiogenesis is the name of the process, we are still trying to figure it out. And the answer you may be looking for is Panspermia: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panspermia ANd where is the skeptical claim? – Larian LeQuella♦ Oct 20 '11 at 0:55
I'm closing this as off-topic. From the FAQ, "Skeptics - Stack Exchange is for challenging unreferenced notable claims, pseudoscience and biased results. Skeptics is about applying skepticism — it is for researching the evidence behind claims you encounter." – Borror0♦ Oct 20 '11 at 0:57
