Turning to Space
Origins researchers are turning to space, because demonstrating how life originated on Earth is proving more difficult than anyone imagined.
To imagine the cataclysmic events of early Earth, scientists like Chris Chyba, look to echoes in present day space, to the thunder of comets and asteroids, the solar system’s wanderers.
So, that’s gotten a lot of people thinking that, well, maybe life did not start on
Earth from a prebiotic soup but somehow was carried to Earth and arrived on Earth full blown, like Athena from the head of Zeus, ready to go.
