- W2183665258 abstract "In this article the author tries to sketch the most likely scenario of origin of life taken the facts known today into account. The main thesis is that early life already evolved during the time of disastrous meteorite impacts which nearly sterilized the whole Earth by boiling and evaporating most of the liquid water. This is in contrast to the usual unquestioned assumption that early life evolved after the meteorite bombardment of early Earth calmed down and stable oceans were present. The main reasons for this thesis are the unexpected uniformity of the genetic code, the two fundamentally different forms of cell membranes, the high evolution speed needed, and the energy rich molecules needed. Those reasons and the unlikelihood of other explanations (like extraterrestrial or autotrophic origin) are discussed in detail. The thesis presented here implies that life could only emerge during the meteorite bombardment and not after it ended. Typically it is assumed that life emerges on all Earth-like planets. However, the only reason for this assumption is that life emerged so early on Earth. This is taken as prove that life emerges everywhere, if the environment is suitable. If we now have to assume that life could only emerge very early on Earth and not later, this means, we cannot deduct from early emergence of life that origin of life is a likely event. In contrast the more you investigate the details of the biochemistry of metabolism, replication, transcription and translation, the more you see stunning complexity, which cannot be reduced in a simple way. Even the most primitive looking life forms are not primitive at all. With the current knowledge, we have to assume that the emergence of life is an incredibly unlikely event." @default.
