You are probably looking for "Spontaneous Generation", but technically speaking, this is the false idea that life could appear from non-life. For example, spontaneous generation argued that rotting meat actually generated flies or that rotting logs actually generated termites, as opposed to what we know now, which is that those insects come from elsewhere and implant themselves in the rotting substance. This is different than saying life appeared from nowhere, since spontaneous generation does not talk about creation ex-nihilo.
Just for clarity's sake, spontaneous generation is false.

Science can examine claims that are capable of being proven false; i.e., ones in which the null hypothesis can be disproved. For example, one cannot prove false the idea that a flying spaghetti monster is running the world, but one can prove false the idea that squirrels use photosynthesis to derive energy, and find instead that they use oxygen.
because it involves only an abstract idea, not a material object.
The idea that space contained a substance call "aether" which carried light. Michelson and Morley developed a device to measure Earth's motion through it. I was a classic failure, and continues to be.
