It was probably blown up there by "uplifting air currents" according to : http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-2728979/Never... We have to keep in mind that, even at that altitude, there are still air molecules. They're extremely sparse, but just enough that the drag they induce on the ISS and its large surface area of solar panels make periodic boosting necessary.

So they also survived an impact with the orbitting station at 9 km/s? I don't think so.

They don't have to survive for you to find traces .
> Results of the scope of scientific experiments which had been conducted for a quite long time were summed up in the previous year, confirming that some organisms can live on the surface of the International Space Station (ISS) for years amid factors of a space flight, such as zero gravity, temperature conditions and hard cosmic radiation. Several surveys proved that these organisms can even develop.

The article is unclear whether these organisms are alive or not. > Results of the scope of scientific experiments which had been conducted for a quite long time were summed up in the previous year, confirming that some organisms can live on the surface of the International Space Station (ISS) for years amid factors of a space flight, such as zero gravity, temperature conditions and hard cosmic radiation.

Would the moon ever need a "boost"? Even though it's probably not hitting any air molecules from Earth, it's still colliding with tons of space debris a day.
