A groundbreaking study suggests that microlightning between charged water droplets may have generated amino acids, potentially sparking the origins of life on Earth. This research builds on the historic Miller-Urey experiment, revealing new insights into how life could have emerged from non-living molecules.
A groundbreaking study reveals that the Last Universal Common Ancestor (LUCA) may have emerged 4 billion years ago, challenging our understanding of life's origins and the conditions that fostered early evolution.
NASA's SPHEREx telescope has launched to explore the universe's cosmic glow and hunt for water in our galaxy. Discover how this mission could reshape our understanding of galaxies and life's origins!
New research from Stanford University suggests that crashing waves and waterfalls might have sparked the origins of life by generating microlightning, leading to the synthesis of vital molecules.
Scientists have uncovered the oldest impact crater on Earth, dating back 3.5 billion years, challenging previous understandings of our planet and the origins of life. This discovery could unveil more ancient craters and their significance.
A groundbreaking study reveals that Earth's water may have originated from supernova explosions shortly after the Big Bang, suggesting that conditions for life existed billions of years earlier than previously believed.
