Hi I made a video on Origin of Life, I think its useful I am probably correct, but I am not sure if it is my original idea, and someone thought of it before me. But its definitely not popular. :)
Dr. Szostak PhD Nobel Laureate stated Back in about 2014 or 2015 that he could produce DNA and proteins from a single strand of RNA. This is June 2024, NOTHING, ZERO, Bupkis! Not as hard as it looks? - Obviously it is. He just needs additional grant money, right?
Talks like he has marbles in his mouth. He should have someone signing or close captions…….id take the Nobel Prize away from him until he talks better.
N = 0 for the entire Universe, with the laws of physics and chemistry entirely compatible with an absolutely sterile Universe. The total population of RNA molecules in the Universe prior to the existence of life was zero. RNA World is desperation science lacking a beginning, middle or end. There is no alternative so the Abiogenesis researchers must go with what they got.
Why is life elsewhere consigned to zero probability or "we don't know?" Why doesn't one example, and an example tied to physical processes which exist elsewhere, count for something even if we can't properly apply statistics.
The primordial soup experiment was done in 1 liter of water. Now calculate the number of liters in the global ocean. There was a large range of conditions in the ocean. There was 100s of milliopns of years. Don't forget all this.
As W. W. Rubey said time ago about the Urey choice of gasses in the Earth's early atmosphere and other wild guesses. Does the geologic record backup these hypotheses? Especially the ferric cyanide one?
god bless you doctor!!! you worked hard for humanity.. an ancient secret revealed by science... no profit by selling drugs... we really thank you from the bottom of our heart!
Since Copenhagen QM has overcome many new ideas but still there is no 'theory'. With Dirac, then Einstein's ER ad EPR and Bell's inequality failed to provide a theory, finally QC functions and error correcting QM promises a theory as complexity can be solved to produce life and consciousness that can lead to a theory as physics and metaphysics explain reality.
Jest juz pierwsze E-Auto z akumulatorem prądu sodowo-jonowego . Pochodzi z Chin ( dobrze /zle ?). The doctoral studies were followed by a long-term stay in the United States.
God bless you such a great gift to all of humanity. Thank you for your generosity in sharing your work. I will pray for you and your health what a blessing you are to us all.
Nick Lane is one of the best lecturers about cell and molecular biology that I have ever heard. This is no surprise because all of his books are uniformly fascinating; Life Ascending is my favorite.
If the individual cell “makes a decision” to run away from hot environment or polluted environment my willful decisions a.k.a. consciousness is also a chemical reaction plus micro electricity. It seems that consciousness is a …complex machine #Bogoslowsky
Molecules combine to make new molecules. In the very distant past there would have been many interesting molecules that were recombining. The source of the 'interesting' molecules may have been the breakup of larger molecules caused by the much more prevalent (earlier in the half-life process) radioactive elements in the environment.
_”… a pretty oxidized surface.”_ ??? This guy really sounds like he knows what he’s talking about, & I’m an engineering amateur, but … Perhaps I’m not understanding what he’s saying, but everything I’ve read says “there was no free oxygen in the earth’s atmosphere until “the great oxidation”, which is CLEARLY visible in the geological record, as happening 3+ billion years after life begins, & photosynthesis evolves & starts pumping oxygen into the atmosphere. According to every paleogeologist I’ve ever heard talk about the early earth (the best being Dr. Robert Hazen of Carnegie institute, there was NO oxygen available to “oxidize the surface of the earth”who describes the evolution of earth’s minerals in great detail, and further that this great oxidation was the cause of the greatest extinction of life in earth’s history, as oxygen poisoned the 99% of life that was anaerobic bacteria. I agree completely with what he is trying to accomplish, abiogenesis thru purely natural chemistry.
When scientists talk about lots of "oxygenation" happening in hydrothermal vents, they're not talking about a world full of oxygen. This is redox chemistry (reduction - oxidation) which is terrible terminology in my opinion since it often has less to do with oxygen, and more to do with electrons. Even worse: in a reduction reaction there is no reduction in the quantities of electrons, reduction actually means the opposite: "gaining electrons". Whoever invented these terms should be taken to court for the millions of human hours wasted on learning these terrible choice of words 😅
Language is not a barrier when the intention to communicate is great. Happy to have got an entrance to such a great mind. Fasting is known as a cleansing process , to ancient societies .But what he has done has brought new generations to fasting vigorously. It's iffect is revorborating all over the glob. It's really celebrated everywhere. Great .
