tl;dr

life is just repeating fractal pattern, right? With enough magnetic force, there could be a different kind of life out there

Doesn't fractal geometry imply that we can make any shape in a graphing calculator?

Anyways, life is funny. It's purpose is to use energy to gather material in a certain order. It resist entropy so it must be awesome.

Why yes, the materials in the human body, that cell membrane stuff was round and water-retaining long before cells actually developed.

And over a few eons, Life started growing inside it... morphing it... growing into a species, organizing on grand scales...

Life doesn't resist entropy; it accelerates it.

Also; you could possibly get some kind of 'space life' inside nebulae, since they're big clouds of matter (god only knows what kind of life though, certainly nothing like anything we've ever seen before), but it's pretty unlikely you'd get life in deep space, mostly because there's nothing in deep space. That's why we call it deep space.

From what I recall, the density of a nebula is supposed to be roughly akin to one atom every few miles, at the closest.

What's between the atoms?

Depends on the nebula; an accretion disc for example is pretty dense.
