primordial soup ...

a few facts give insight into the conditions in which life may have emerged, but the mechanisms by which non-life became life are still elusive.

historical radius of the spherical universe we can observe, is about 78 billion light years. we cannot observe anything outside that sphere, as information from it would have taken longer to reach us than the life of the universe ! the universe, which includes time, space, and everything in it, begins with the big bang 13.7 ± 0.2 billion years ago.

nonlinear dynamic systems under certain conditions exhibit a phenomenon known as chaos, typically refers to unpredictability which are very sensitive to its initial conditions. in the metaphysical sense, it is the opposite, unrestrictive, both creative and destructive.

abiogenesis, is the generation of life from non-living matter. on earth, all lifeforms are based on carbon compounds, such as CH4 (methane) C2H6 (ethane), early earth environment had no free oxygen for use by lifeforms. the hypothesis that primitive life may have originally formed extraterrestrially doesnt answer anything, how did it arise there ? the emergence of oxygenic-photosynthesis life happened around 3 billion years ago, in the last billion years simple multicellular plants and animals began to appear in water.

probably all of the organic beings which have ever lived on this earth have descended from some one primordial form, into which life was first breathed. the species we see today are but the smallest part of what blind destiny has produced, all living species of today are related to each other through common descent, products of evolution and speciation over billions of years.

human DNA sequences are approximately 6.6% divergent from those of their nearest genetic relative the baboons, 1.6% from gorillas , and 1.2% from chimpanzee, 0.1 % between you and me.
