Would they burn up entering the atmosphere?

Just google mushroom spores in space. It says they are metallic shelled, and purple to reflect ultraviolet light, and have been found at every level of the atmosphere

I also suspect it doesn't have the mass to create resistance, required to burn it

An international team of scientists have collected and examined images taken by NASA's Curiosity and Opportunity rovers evidently showing fungi growing on Mars. In their scientific peer reviewed research paper recently published in the research journal of Advances in Microbiology, the scientists point to a set of Opportunity rover's images showing 9 apparent fungi spheres having grown plus 12 more apparent fungi spheres emerging from beneath the soil over the course of 3 days. The scientists note their observation that many of these ground-level spherical specimens also have stalks or have shed portions of their outer membranes-possibly crutose-and are surrounded by white chunks of fluffy spore-like material that may consist of leprose.The scientists conclude that the specimen's growth, movement, alterations in location and shape, constitute behavior, and coupled with life-like morphology, strongly support the hypothesis there is life on Mars.

Please note. This is fake news! The article was published in a China based predatory journal by a pseudo scientist. It has no scientific merit
No, NASA photos are not evidence of fungus growing on Mars, sorry

They are actually iron oxide nodules. Here is the actual color image.
