If you are bored by why you exist then you must be a boring dude

We do live forever, just in different forms.
Your question and a lot of the answers to why its a bad idea , to me makes reincarnation make sense.

Not even the mountains last forever.
The sun bleaches the desert white.
The rains crumble the cliffs.
The relentless force of gravity sags the breasts.
What makes you think lifeforms should be immortal?

Why evolve if not to achieve immortality?
Are lifeforms stupid?
Why does your body fight to keep you alive?

The answer to this question can be found in The Lion King.

Seriously, you need a full Billy Madison reset. You would learn an insane amount in 1st grade.

So theres absolutely no chance theres nothing else out there that we are unaware of that alters the speed of light after it leaves our atmosphere?
First off science doesn't deal in absolutes Science deals in approximate, provisional truths that are the best current explanations, constantly refined by new evidence, never claiming finality or absolute certainty. Yes light speed can is altered by all kinds of things but at astronomical distances going through mostly the vacuum of space its really insignificant. If you are interested in the subject do you have a public observatory near you?

To replicate or pass on its genetic code

You frame these questions as if they are "gotchas" but the answers are pretty plain.
1. The genes in our DNA are, in a sense, immortal; proliferating themselves across the aeons.
2. No
3. Refer to Question and Answer #1.

But if we lived forever than we would not need to do that so why haven't life forms realized that and just achieved that?

Our DNA isnt immortal or else it would have always existed. Why are humans only thousands of years old?

why cant they do the math to watch the comet take out the dinosaurs? We should be able to point a telescope at space and watch a giant comet approach
Because its relative. If we were on a planet 66 million light years away we maybe able to see it..Does thst make sense

Dont you think its weird we question life if we just simply exist?
Why are we the only lifeform that questions life yet we are the youngest lifeform according to science.

If one had a spectacularly strong telescope on a planet 66,000,000 light years from earth, you could.

But at some point the comet would have been close enough for us to see it no?
And if we cannot see it then how can we prove it happened? There is no recorded event of such a thing happening

Because we're all biological machines with a soul/consciousness and parts break down.
