Starseeds, also called sailseeds, are a fictional life form in the Known Space science fiction series by Larry Niven. These large (approximately one mile in diameter) "seeds" travel through interstellar space. A starseed is typically spherical, but when it needs to change direction it unfolds itself into a large squarish solar sail with the four corners connected via strands to a small knob. Most of the internal organs are located in a cross-shaped swelling in the sail. Nothing is really known about them, other than they seem to migrate from the galactic center to the rim to eject their eggs, and then travel back to the core. Sometimes the eggs are ejected towards other galaxies, but most are left to hatch and migrate themselves to the core.
The aliens known as Outsiders follow starseeds for reasons only they know. Pierson's Puppeteers claimed to have a technology called "starseed lure" that can attract nearby starseeds to a specific solar system. They have supposedly used a starseed lure to influence the course of human/Kzin warfare by causing an Outsider ship to visit a human colony world, allowing humanity to purchase hyperdrive technology. This technology allowed humanity to decimate the Kzinti in subsequent wars. However, other accounts have it that the outsiders followed an unmanned human starship that traveled between the human colonies (see A Gift From Earth).

Get out of my head, I don't need you here,
Why don't you leave me alone, until I want you back,
I'm sad, I don't mind, I don't care what sells,
Is it love, is it hate? Why do you take?
Wanna give, wanna break your ways,
I can see through your lies, I can see through your lies, Oh god
I can see through your lies, I can see through your lies, I can,
Get under my skin, when I'm feeling down,
Wanna take your soul, when I push you around,
Break! All that you are!
I don't know, I don't think, why do you hate?
I'm a stranger to these words you say,
I can see through your lies, I can see through your lies, Oh god
I can see through your lies, I can see through your lies, I can,
OOOOOOAAAHHHH WOAH!
You are always, always in my heart,
You are always, always in my heart!
You are always, always in my heart,
You are always, always in my heart...
You are always, always in my heart,
You are always, always in my heart,
