Life on Earth-like Planets: Could It Emerge Faster Than We Thought?
A new study suggests that life may emerge rapidly on Earth-like planets once conditions become favorable. By analyzing Earth’s early history and applying Bayesian probability models, researchers propose that abiogenesis—the process by which life arises from non-living matter—could occur much faster than previously assumed. Rapid Abiogenesis on Earth Earth formed approximately 4.5 billion years ago, ...
