Origins of Life

Description

The story of life?s origins on Earth is truly epic in scale, both in time and in space. Scientists surmise that 4 billion years ago the Earth?s surface was desolate and lifeless. The hostile surface was constantly disrupted by volcanic eruptions and meteorite bombardment, yet evidence locked in Earth?s most ancient rocks suggests that by about 3.8 billion years ago, tiny bacteria had emerged to establish a firm foothold. Life would persist in an unbroken lineage to the present day.



What happened during that ancient time interval between about 4 billion and 3.8 billion years ago that led to life?s remarkable origin? An answer to this fundamental question will certainly alter the way we think about ourselves and

about our place in the cosmos. For one thing, if life could begin on Earth by a natural process, then it could also begin by similar processes on Earth-like planets circling other stars throughout our galaxy and beyond. Perhaps we

are not alone in the universe.



Of all the great unanswered questions, none is more fascinating and none has deeper resonance than the question of where we came from?the question of life?s origins and evolution. The origin of life is a subject of immense complexity, and we do not yet know how life began. We are in the midst of a remarkably dynamic stage of research,

during which advances are made every month. Consequently, the ultimate objective of these lectures is not to provide a complete picture of how life emerged. Rather, it is an opportunity to paint a picture of our present state of knowledge and ignorance and to provide a perspective of where we are going and how we are getting there.
