But Anton, you have saved my life at least twice, from suicide. Please know you are an extremely helpful force of nature. I am a veteran with ptsd that works in science and believe it or not, you say things in your video that represents a philosophy of well being- it is not just your video content, but the energy and humanity that is escalating you to the stars. Thank you for your efforts, you make a difference in my life.

Hey man, I'm anti war and not American, so.. but, have you tried medical cannabis, ketamine, MDMA, psilocybin or Ayahuasca? or any psychedelic therapy? maybe research it a bit, it's really promising. I can help with the latter psychedelic, if you can come to south America or pay my trip to your country, I'd just need a proper psychotherapist to assist me as a rented independent clinician(which might require a declaration of responsibility for us so he doesn't get prosecuted, I'd love to do it in a university too, there's some studies already going on that'd love to have it studied if you're comfortable with it)
You're a good dude, Anton. And your content is unparalleled. I just told my therapist about the mushroom communication video, and when I said your name, I definitely saw him write it down.
my guess has been for years that we'll end up finding rna/dna/life pretty much on every rock and ice ball out there, once we get to actually study them exhaustively. and that whether life started here or elsewhere, the galaxy has long time ago been thoroughly seeded with rna/dna through meteor impacts regardless of where it first started.
Looking forward to when conventional minds finally come to terms that there is life out there even if it be microbial at least that would be a step up from where they are now.
@@MrKillswitch88 I've been thinking this for some time now, we all fall into the obsession of hollywood UFOs etc and if they are real but I've come to the realisation how insane it would be to find even something as small as you said such as microbes on another planet would still blow my mind. And plus its more realistic we find that in my lifetime rather than a UFO so it gives me hope we will find some sort of alien life will I'm alive🤣
From my understanding the geology of earth is directly correlated to our DNA and the biology on earth. I'm sure we will find simple cell life on other planets and astroids. If we didn't then that would be absolutely terrifying. But I can guarantee you as you already know we won't find complex life in our solar system. If we had a way of traveling at the speed of light then who knows what's really out there. I do know that the theories behind how complex life first formed say that the chances of it happening are near impossible but it occurred either way. Take care.
A stunning video! It reminded me of Sagan's "We are made of star stuff" - and I now feel a kinship with all the creatures of the Cosmos. Thank You, Anton, for your fascinating and very meaningful work.
Nucleobases, not nucleotides. Though all the other building blocks for RNA forming nucleotides themselves (ribose sugar just couple of years ago and of course phosphates) have been identified from meteorites as well.
Yeah, these futurology physicist UA-camrs are all pretty dense on biochemisty. Also, the evidence for these nucleobases doesn't really mean much at all, they're just aromatic compounds. He doesn't know what he's talking about at all. If you show me evidence for glycosidic bonding, then I'll be impressed.
What does this mean? This means that life in other places is nearly inevitable. It also means that the chance of such life being (somewhat) related to ours is much higher than we ever expected. At least the root chemical basis ("carbon-life") can easily be the same.
@@Tugela60 Can you explain your comment? If asteroids in our galaxy contain DNA/RNA why would you think that wouldn't be the case elsewhere in the billions or other star systems?

@@valentinsalvermoser6671 it doesn't change the fact life does exist regardless of whether humans are able to produce life in lab or not. When life started to exist on earth there were no humans even let alone their experiments. Its arrogant to think that because we could not nature can not too.

Once I learned a little about organic chemistry, extremophiles, and now given the number of galaxies and stars and the age of the universe, it seemed inevitable to me. This makes it more likely. Just because we can't find it, it doesn't mean it isn't there. Finding life elsewhere is the top scientific achievement I'd like to see before I die. 😊
@@julioguardado For sure! Me too! I think it would be the biggest scientific breakthrough in human history. However… I know I’m in the minority here… But I think intelligent life is vanishingly rare - to the point where we may be the only (or one of the only) intelligent species in the entire universe. At the very least I think we could be the first. The only two logical solutions to the Fermi paradox as I see it are; dark forest, or rare intelligence.
ETs have been visiting earth for eons , and are still doing so now . Our governments , do not want the bulk of us knowing this , as it may screw with some of their "black ops schemes " .
Considering how many stars there are in the known universe, how almost off of them have planets, a large number of them have rocket planets in the habitable zone (and as ice moons have shown us, even that's not a limiting factor), how abundant the chemistry for organic life is, how quickly life formed on Earth once the crust had solidified and oceans had formed, and the crazy conditions many microbes can endure...if Earth is the only place with life on it that would be truly absurd. Complex and technological life however might need very specific circumstances to arise.
Specific, not VERY specific :) As long as you have life you have evolution. And evolution will drive you to complex life for sure and technological life quite likely. "Nothing personal - just business" - say evolution to pathetic humans :)
what makes this important isnt that its all from space but rather that these building blocks where made in space without the need of earth special features. Thus showing that life can be everywhere in our universe without the need for exact earth like conditions.

Based on the fact that Earth contains precious metals, which are known to originate from Super Nova events, it is not too far of a jump to conclude that any planet and/or moon in orbit around that star that contained life would have had microbes from that life blown into a regional area. We know our Solar System was seeded by raw materials from a Super Nova, why not biological material as well?

It's crazy how much widely optimistic content is posted on this channel daily. The chemicals for DNA and RNA are essential but insufficient for life. A relatively stable but not too hot or too cold star situated in a quiet galaxy miraculously free of any other colliding galaxy. Then these conditions are essential for anywhere between one to ten billion years. With so many essential conditions needed for life over a very long period of time, it is a miracle that life exists at all. And that is only describing simple life. For complex life to exist, it is even rarer. I am not optimistic that we will find complex life in my lifetime.

I remember vaguely once reading something about a proposed "Goldilocks era" -- i.e. a time when the entire universe were experiencing conditions favourable to life (a few million years old?) -- and that this was supposedly the point in time when the first organic molecules came to be. It's an interesting idea but I've heard no more about it.
I’ve not heard of it as an era, but a zone where water can remain liquid on a planet. Not too close or too far from the sun. I think it’s more of an energy problem. Anton mentioned it in referring to ATP. Phosphorus being the driver for organic energy. It seems that our area is higher than most of the universe in phosphorus and may be a key driver for organic life to emerge that no one really talks much about.
@@nathanwish6857 I think that's where this idea originated, for instance the location of the earth in our solar system is "not too hot and not too cold" (as in the story of Goldilocks and the bears), so these conditions are favourable for liquid water, hence life as we know it.

I don't remember where I first saw it though, I read and/or watch a lot of this type of "science gossip".
@@specialkonacid6574 I googled this and got the impression that it's a little on the side of frivolous speculation, or fiction as it were. There doesn't seem to be any known facts that support a theory other than the sun having always been at the centre of our solar system.
@@MediaFaust it’s not about the sun it’s about how the Big Bang happened then the universe cooled down basically meaning at one point possibly water could have existed as a liquid (1c-99c) who knows it could have happened nothing suggests it did though
I never liked science growing up in H.S. ... After I graduated (several years later) my mentality completely changed. Now, I absolutely LOVE it. -- It's a shame I didnt realize how cool/good it was during school. Thanks for everything, Anton!!
👍 *GREAT - we're all derived from SOUP!* Thanks for sharing your huge amount of knowledge, Anton. It's lovely to pick up these snippets of information every day or so.
As a famous astrophysicist once said - we are made of stardust; and that was not a metaphor. we (Earth) are a conglomeration of collected matter floating in orbit around the sun as it built up, the gravity grew stronger and attracted even more matter. So, it's hardly a stretch to say that those bits of proteins and other matter were deposited here and found the right environment to start melding together and some spark got life started. The only question left is - why only here?
Having found the building blocks of life on asteroids is promising to the aspect of life on other planets. However because they exist on these 4.5 billion year old asteroids, they likely existed on this 4.5 billion year old 3rd rock from the sun directly after its initial formation. A billion years of asteroids falling to Earth would help seed and replenish these molecules even further.
I understood that the earth was molten when it formed and that sterilised the whole planet. Thus these molecules had to form or be delivered only after it cooled down.
When they find evidence of viral/bacterial life in the clouds if Venus, will then quickly realise that our two planets have been cosmically sneezing on one another, exchanging DNA for billions of years..... that will be a very cool moment.
We pretty much already know life from earth has been distributed across the solar system and the metric weight of the amount of earth soil too. The most is of course on the moon and it's one of the biggest reasons I've heard scientists want to go back to the moon is to collect that ancient earth soil full of microbes to study our biological origins.
This seems to connect to the late heavy bombardment, which is hypothesized to have happened some couple billions of years ago, due to the planets and material existing closer to each other, in which life began a couple 100 million years just after this period. These building blocks were most likely on the multiple meteors during the bombardment, which may have jump started life as we know it.
The origin of life coming from space has ben around for a long, long time. It is called Pans Spermia and goes back to Greek philosophers and others many thousands of years ago. The Urey/Miller experiments in the 1950s squashed the notion for many decades, despite the fact that hundreds of experiments failed to advance the "soup" to life itself. This new discovery is quite revolutionary!
I'm so sorry about your baby. My uncle died of SIDS so, I was aware of it from childhood. My wife and I slept in shifts during the first year of our children's life because we were very aware of it. We should make everyone aware and educate how to help stop this. I don't think we'll ever stop it 100% but one life saved is good. Babies that sleep with parents suffer less from SIDS. The whole rolling over on the baby is actually very unlikely unless you are so massively obese that you don't notice it or drugged out. But just as an extra level of care me slept in shifts. We had the privilege that I'm self employed and my wife doesn't work. I'm also noctournal so, staying up all night works for me anyway. Our son was easy because even as a baby he scored and I could just hear him. Our daughter is this dainty little thing that was virtually silent and I constantly touched her chest to feel the breathing. Funny, she certainly isn't quiet now! She literally never stops talking. It doesn't matter if she's alone or not. She chats to herself, sings etc... if she's awake, she's talking. I just sat in bed with my laptop working all night with the baby between us. Note, if you do this, you will be sleeping with the kid FOR YEARS! Don't feel any guilt but I thought you might want this info for your next baby.
It's actually MORE difficult, because so far, only our planet has been found to provide the perfect goldilocks fine tuning to foster life, so whilst the materials can come from elsewhere, they need this particular resource to trigger and thrive.

More than a decade ago Biologist and Computer scientist applied artificial intelligence to DNA complexity and mutation rate and the A.I. suggest life is at least 10 billion years old. That's 6 billion years older than Earth. We need to consider the possibility that the conditions for creating life only existed in the early universe and that all life in the universe has a common origin, albeit separated by billions of years.
I don’t think it matters where life started. We are here now with our own Arsenal of issues to deal with. Notwithstanding, it is amazing if we find our origine for 100% certainty.
Considering everything we see is made in space somewhere its not such a strange things our building components come from outer-space as well. Like we always say, we are stardust.
Life started with about 200 possible nucleobases from the chemistry occurring in rock pores and the drying edges of puddles in volcanic regions. What we see in DNA today is a molecular natural selection of the nucleobases, the sugar and the leaving groups ( the phosphate today ) that has influenced cellular natural selection.
@@eaboatnuts76 Depends on which bases and what concentrations , temperature, pressure, solvent , pH and proximity to any organising surfaces such as montmorillonite. Best stick to the scuba, maybe you'll be eaten by a shark and you won't have to worry about it.
Alfred, grab the Magic School Bus! We are going to travel through space looking for microbes and signs of biology across the universe. Oh get Ms.Frizzle too!
I think people have the misconception that because life was discovered on earth very early mean life is coming from space. But that's a gross exaggeration, it took million of years of evolution to have the first somewhat complex organisms from basic cells. Multicellular organism started "only" 600 million years ago, so it's quiet far from the first signs at 3billion years. In fact the evolution timeline pretty clearly demonstrate it was formed on earth, it doesn't mean other planets cannot form theirs though. But yea i think this kind of news are a bit overblown.
I've been convinced of this since the sixties. Of course that's where everything that makes up our planet and ourselves came from in one way or another. We've been discovering organic material off of earth since we started looking. I don't see this as surprising at all.

@@MediaFaust it’s not about the sun it’s about how the Big Bang happened then the universe cooled down basically meaning at one point possibly water could have existed as a liquid (1c-99c) who knows it could have happened nothing suggests it did though
I never liked science growing up in H.S. ... After I graduated (several years later) my mentality completely changed. Now, I absolutely LOVE it. -- It's a shame I didnt realize how cool/good it was during school. Thanks for everything, Anton!!
Same
I was waiting for you to make this video when I saw this in the news.
👍 *GREAT - we're all derived from SOUP!*
Thanks for sharing your huge amount of knowledge, Anton. It's lovely to pick up these snippets of information every day or so.
Thanks Anton. Sorry for your loss!
love you brother. Thanks for the knowledge
As a famous astrophysicist once said - we are made of stardust; and that was not a metaphor. we (Earth) are a conglomeration of collected matter floating in orbit around the sun as it built up, the gravity grew stronger and attracted even more matter. So, it's hardly a stretch to say that those bits of proteins and other matter were deposited here and found the right environment to start melding together and some spark got life started.
The only question left is - why only here?
Hey sir, I don't usually comment, but sure respect. Love the topics and especially the details! keep living, keep loving dude.
May the 4th be with you Anton!
Thank you for keeping us informed, Anton; you are appreciated. Please allow yourself to take a relaxing vacation someday soon.
Remarkably. you are getting even better at this Mr. Anton. Well done, and thanks.
Amazing science. Thanks for another great video Anton!
Having found the building blocks of life on asteroids is promising to the aspect of life on other planets. However because they exist on these 4.5 billion year old asteroids, they likely existed on this 4.5 billion year old 3rd rock from the sun directly after its initial formation. A billion years of asteroids falling to Earth would help seed and replenish these molecules even further.
I was thinking the same thing.
They may be seeding new trees of evolution even to this day.
I understood that the earth was molten when it formed and that sterilised the whole planet. Thus these molecules had to form or be delivered only after it cooled down.
Isn't that what was found in the 90's on that rock from Mars'
@@karlakirkpatrick2214 Was that the same one that they found the "bacteria fossil" on?
Very cool discovery and I am thrilled to actually have samples of two of the three meteorites used in this study!
It's like this is a site to answer all my questions - including the questions I haven't yet realized I need to ask ;- )
When they find evidence of viral/bacterial life in the clouds if Venus, will then quickly realise that our two planets have been cosmically sneezing on one another, exchanging DNA for billions of years..... that will be a very cool moment.
We pretty much already know life from earth has been distributed across the solar system and the metric weight of the amount of earth soil too. The most is of course on the moon and it's one of the biggest reasons I've heard scientists want to go back to the moon is to collect that ancient earth soil full of microbes to study our biological origins.
This seems to connect to the late heavy bombardment, which is hypothesized to have happened some couple billions of years ago, due to the planets and material existing closer to each other, in which life began a couple 100 million years just after this period. These building blocks were most likely on the multiple meteors during the bombardment, which may have jump started life as we know it.
The origin of life coming from space has ben around for a long, long time. It is called Pans Spermia and goes back to Greek philosophers and others many thousands of years ago. The Urey/Miller experiments in the 1950s squashed the notion for many decades, despite the fact that hundreds of experiments failed to advance the "soup" to life itself. This new discovery is quite revolutionary!
That was awesome! Thanks, Anton!
LP Indie hat diesen Kanal empfohlen und Link geteilt. Angesehen als gut empfunden Daumen hoch und Abo 🍀👍
Really interesting segment.
Like the song goes; “We are stardust”.
Thanks Anton.😎👍🍻
I'm so sorry for your lost Anton. I want you to know we also acknowledge your grief.
Thank you, Anton, for the videos you make!
I'm so sorry about your baby. My uncle died of SIDS so, I was aware of it from childhood. My wife and I slept in shifts during the first year of our children's life because we were very aware of it.
We should make everyone aware and educate how to help stop this. I don't think we'll ever stop it 100% but one life saved is good. Babies that sleep with parents suffer less from SIDS. The whole rolling over on the baby is actually very unlikely unless you are so massively obese that you don't notice it or drugged out. But just as an extra level of care me slept in shifts. We had the privilege that I'm self employed and my wife doesn't work. I'm also noctournal so, staying up all night works for me anyway.
Our son was easy because even as a baby he scored and I could just hear him. Our daughter is this dainty little thing that was virtually silent and I constantly touched her chest to feel the breathing. Funny, she certainly isn't quiet now! She literally never stops talking. It doesn't matter if she's alone or not. She chats to herself, sings etc... if she's awake, she's talking.
I just sat in bed with my laptop working all night with the baby between us. Note, if you do this, you will be sleeping with the kid FOR YEARS!
Don't feel any guilt but I thought you might want this info for your next baby.
Let´s go for 1 Million subscribers. Anton derves this since years...
Dude, you are a machine. So much great content
Hello wonderful Anton this is person
💀
This makes me unbelievably happy
Anton gives me more science than anything else I see...the really significant stuff
It's actually MORE difficult, because so far, only our planet has been found to provide the perfect goldilocks fine tuning to foster life, so whilst the materials can come from elsewhere, they need this particular resource to trigger and thrive.
From Puerto Rico, my deepest condolences...
Another enjoyable and informative video - Thank you.
Please make sure that you look after yourself!
Not just the materials for life but very basic life forms probably started in space.
Love ya work mate watch it daily 👍
Great video Anton!
Thanks so much wonderful, Anton.
thank you for the great work you're putting out Anton, your content has been a refreshing change in the usual clickbait nature of space videos.
Anton take care of yourself, sleep and eat well.
we need your videos, you are an.absolutely wonderful person, please keep the great work
cheers
Great work, fascinating info 🤗🥰
Thanks for this film Anton. Hope you and family are ok 🙂
May the 4th be with you!
Great work Anton!
Thank you for the videos, thoughts to you and you family
You're awesome Anton!
Anton - Thanks as always!
I just noticed today that you changed the channel name to your name from whatdmath.
Happy Star Wars Day, May the 4th be with you!
Amazing video, i love anything that touches on life outside the earth. Everything about it is just fascinating. Thanks wonderful person!
Let's get this man those 4K more subscribers, folks! Share his videos far & wide!
This is really cool, too, though all of his videos are. 🙂❤❤ He does this every single day, bringing us the coolest science papers out there, for free, and going the extra mile, too. He makes sure all of the important links are in the description, every day, too - he _deserves_ that million subscribers mark!
More than a decade ago Biologist and Computer scientist applied artificial intelligence to DNA complexity and mutation rate and the A.I. suggest life is at least 10 billion years old. That's 6 billion years older than Earth. We need to consider the possibility that the conditions for creating life only existed in the early universe and that all life in the universe has a common origin, albeit separated by billions of years.
not sure if its just alegies but, you doing ok anton? sending love regardless.
So life can be an intrinsically emergent property of the universe? Well, this is... nice to know
It always was, entropy taketh but entropy also giveth.
Why would it be any other way?
A property intended by a loving Creator, the source of the physical laws for this pro-life universe!

1 million sooon!!! Well earned 1 mil!
I don’t think it matters where life started. We are here now with our own Arsenal of issues to deal with. Notwithstanding, it is amazing if we find our origine for 100% certainty.
hope you're well, friendo.
Call it
Considering everything we see is made in space somewhere its not such a strange things our building components come from outer-space as well. Like we always say, we are stardust.
Oooooh you're so close to 1 million!!!
Thank you Anton!
Life started with about 200 possible nucleobases from the chemistry occurring in rock pores and the drying edges of puddles in volcanic regions. What we see in DNA today is a molecular natural selection of the nucleobases, the sugar and the leaving groups ( the phosphate today ) that has influenced cellular natural selection.
The statistical probability that the bases lining up in any substantial way on their own is zero.
@@eaboatnuts76 Depends on which bases and what concentrations , temperature, pressure, solvent , pH and proximity to any organising surfaces such as montmorillonite. Best stick to the scuba, maybe you'll be eaten by a shark and you won't have to worry about it.

Alfred, grab the Magic School Bus!
We are going to travel through space looking for microbes and signs of biology across the universe. Oh get Ms.Frizzle too!
Oh wow this makes extraterrestrial lifeforms even more plausible, perhaps even nearly certain considering the scale of the cosmos! 😳
Wonderful as always anton. Thank you. ☺️👍
Thanks for the information
"life finds a way"
I think people have the misconception that because life was discovered on earth very early mean life is coming from space. But that's a gross exaggeration, it took million of years of evolution to have the first somewhat complex organisms from basic cells. Multicellular organism started "only" 600 million years ago, so it's quiet far from the first signs at 3billion years. In fact the evolution timeline pretty clearly demonstrate it was formed on earth, it doesn't mean other planets cannot form theirs though. But yea i think this kind of news are a bit overblown.
The seed in your heart shall blossom, Anton.
I've been convinced of this since the sixties. Of course that's where everything that makes up our planet and ourselves came from in one way or another. We've been discovering organic material off of earth since we started looking. I don't see this as surprising at all.
You the best Anton!
