    The origin of life is one of the most important mysteries in all of science. When did life begin? How did life first evolve from chemistry? Where did life get started? In some primordial soup or somewhere else? Let’s journey back to the origin of life, as best as we know it, from the RNA world do the last universal common ancestor of everything alive today.

      Okay, there is something I never understood about this theory: Why did it only happened once? There are hydrothermal vents in the oceans today and they have been around eversince the begining, yet we don't see random living molecules pop into existence. Is it because: A. Life was a one time accident. B. Life did not start there. C. The vents didn't know enough about the Dark Side to create more life. D. I don't know what I'm talking about.

      @Daniel Bojtor: How about, it may have happend any number of times but only one of those ultimately resulted in all the life that we know, since the moment that 'Life' has a foothold it will consume such molecules that could have made new and different life and by that time 'Life' has a big headstart on any upstarts coming later.

    I was not only surprised, but deeply gratified with the content of this video. As a long-time watcher of science and science news, and an academic who followed the fortunes and misfortunes of the philosophy of science, I found myself deeply engaged in a play by play story of the beginning of life far more plausible than those preceding it. The cooperation with Eons and Space Time was well done. This trio of PBS channels has outdone themselves recently with well-done documentary and explanatory work. I know this show is a bit older, but it encapsulates a wide variety of issues at the forefront of scientific discovery. Kudos to these producers.

    I always LOVED the struggle against entropy definition of life. Not just for living things, but for MY life in general, and seemingly, most other peoples' lives as well. It feels like we're always struggling against that entropy to put more order into our lives, to build them up from the ground (usually?) and to make them into something considered useful or successful, depending on your goal. Of course these are generalizations. Your mileage may vary. =P

    This video was pretty good but in multiple places it is said that life is a "closed system". In fact, the opposite is true: Living things are definitely open systems (thermodynamically speaking) and they would not be able to stay alive if they were not. I think what you meant to say is "enclosed systems" or some sort of "enveloped systems", i.e. they have a boundary between the interior and the exterior of the cell. We like to call them "organization", since it is this very feature gives the general shape of the organisms.
    And it makes a clear distinction too: Viruses aren't alive because they have organization ("enveloped system") outside the host cell but they do not have the machinery, or "activity" to sustain their order. The moment they find a host cell, they somewhat gain this activity by stealing the machinery of the cells they infect - but this time they lost all of their "organization". So life requires "activity" (to sustain order, i.e. "metabolism") and "organization" together to create life.

      100%. you probably hear this about any course, but bioinformatics is one of if not the best choice regarding the future. With a degree in bioinformatics you get the tools to advance into any other scientific branch.
      you'll be the link between biology and computers... and that is useful for basically anything anticipated in the next decades. Precision medicine, Spacetravel, Artificial Intelligence, Nanobots or just good old curing cancer and aging. A well-paid job is guaranteed.

      I can though ^^ just because I haven't finished learning, doesn't mean I don't know what opportunities i'll have. If you read enough non-fictional books concerned with our future, you'll notice that most of them contain some form of area bioinformatics will be insanely useful for. So yes, bioinformatics is / will be (for me) worth it.
      I haven't met anyone who has said otherwise, btw. I'm not just talking about actual bioinformatics-professors. Most of the professors in the fields of biology, chemistry and informatics know the value of this rather new degree course too.

      Understanding is not something one can refuse, it is grown from facts, and thinking to become knowledge and integrated into other knowledge to become an understanding or in the Latin a standing in the midst of (facts and knowledge.) If people don't understand something it's because there isn't a group of facts and knowledge to stand in the midst of or it hasn't been portrayed with skill and effectiveness. Making a glamor to give the impression of life from non life doesn't provide the substance of life from non life. If you simply asked for evidence of real life from non life before accepting it as fact you would be with those who think for themselves and hold to the facts. Cheers. Sincerely David

The evidence in the fossil record shows that all life came into being about the same time, with no signs of pre-evolutionary forms.

    We have no idea how life exactly came about.
    The building blocks of life as we know it are chemicals called amino acids. We know that they can form naturally, in lightning strikes and other energetic phenomena. But how did we get from amino acids to RNA, the fundamental unit of advanced life, is a complete mystery. How many times did that happen independently? Once? A zillion times? We don't know because we have no idea what the mechanism is.
    Some people argue that it happened so rapidly on Earth, that the probability must be high. Therefore, there must be abundant life near other stars. But we really don't know. It is conceivable that the probability is so tiny, that if you plug it into Drake's equation you find that we expect life to have formed only once in the entire universe.
    My own guess (and this is not a scientific theory) is that there was a precursor form of living molecule that was capable of carrying limited genetic information, much less than RNA, and still capable of reproducing. When RNA developed, the more primitive form of life could not compete, and was literally eaten up.
    There is a science fiction story that illustrates this. A group of advanced computers rules the world. One little baby computer asks, "How did computers come to being?"
    The mommy computer answers, "We don't really know. We can trace our beginnings back to a microprocessor that was first created in what we call year zero" [in human years, this corresponds to the late 1900s, but mommy computer doesn't know that], "but we can't conceive how that first microprocessor was created. It's too complex to have come about by chance. Maybe there was a primitive life form that preceded it, and which is now completely wiped out. Carbon is on the same part of the periodic table as Silicon, so some people think it might have been a carbon-based life form. But carbon doesn't make very good electronic circuits, so I think this idea is foolish."

I saw an article where they tried to insert additional amino acids into the chain and found one other but it had to engineered to work, so 4 is all there is out of 22 amino acids. There could have been 0 or 2 amino acids that were compatible, both which might not be enough for complex programming of life. The periodic table and how thinks link up is another amazing thing that is needed for what we see around us, that probably could be different and break everything. The quantum parameters could be slightly different, which again would mess things up. If you are looking for evidence of some outside force manipulating things, science and how minor variations and just the right balance of things would be a logical starting point instead of fiction written by people with little understanding of how things work.

    Holy crap... the more I hear about Darwin, the more I appreciate his genius. It amazes me how he had such a clear understanding of life that many of his insights have been proven in one way or the other 200 years later. Truly someone I admire greatly!

      Indeed all in our Universe is events, patterns in the greater Space-Time 4D object that *is* reality. We can only see these patterns in 3D as we are result of these 4D patterns ourselves we see cross-sections of reality, but not the whole thing. That is the illusion of "Time".
      Bonus: We don't even see the whole of our cross-sections unfortunately, considering it takes "time" for our brains to process what we see there are tons of things much faster than us that we miss, like lightning, watch it in slow mo, it's amazing: ua-cam.com/video/dukkO7c2eUE/v-deo.html. And on the other end of the spectrum we are too fast for things like the evolution of giant space objects like our Earth and it's continents.

    The most important step (from organic molecules to self-replicating RNA) still seems to be completely in the dark. It might have happened near that underwater vents, sure, but how you get from Micelles and energy to RNA hasn't been touched on at all in this video.
    I mean, it's a great video and explains a lot, so I don't want to criticize the video per se but it makes it seem as if we basically know the main steps, which doesn't seem true at all.
    Also why isn't Abiogenesis happening right now? Or is it?

      Well he said that basic amino acid can stick together when bumped into each other. So they can result in a string. But there's still important question? Why would this string replicate itself?

      @@DanielWilianto Hi, I will give you a reply. The answer is that the 'string' of amino acids doesn't replicate. However a 50 base long 'string' of RNA does. In fact, so much so, that in the laboratory these are known as Spiegelman Monsters. The fact that RNA replicates, edits itself, carries the genetic code and can act as an enzyme; led to the RNA World Hypothesis. Different combinations of RNA bases also have a natural affinity with specific amino acids. I hope this helps!

    One of the interesting theories is that life arose from entrophic tendencies, the need to disperse energy by building organized structures that could transfer energy throughout a closed system much faster.

    • @k_schreibz
      @k_schreibz Рік тому

      Yeah I've always wondered that to. People point to humans massive use of energy as unnatural, and I won't deny that it is damaging, but I do wonder if what we are doing is inevitable. The more complex we become the more efficient we become at using larger and larger sources of energy and speeding up entropy. Maybe what we do is natural, and was always going to be the outcome of life's increasing complexity.

      And yes, as any educated person who studied life at all would tell you, DNA did evolve too, from RNA.
      What I find remarkable is how people with no education on a topic deny all basic facts about that topic just so they can believe in a magic man in the sky.
