But again, what is selected by chemistry will be determined by the environment, most likely.

I wonder if he thinks that's an accidental outcome, if he thinks that's inevitable.

I wonder what that means.

But it's a likely possibility that the bacterial or microbial life is definitely more attainable.

So, you know, if you don't like microbes, you are on the wrong planet.

They're fascinating.

They do everything for us.

That's a very interesting, I definitely agree that the initial steps may be the ultimate determinants that once it's, you cannot stop it once it starts, it's possible.

Exactly.

And how are we going to understand that if we don't know the origin of life science?

I mean, that's the... And the question here isn't exactly our ability to recapitulate everything that happened in the exact way that it happened, right?

This is about what can happen rather than... Or maybe how it can happen.

So that's what I sort of talked about in my talk as well.

Everyone should go.

And did you know that there's no prompter involved?

There isn't.

It's a, and thanks to my amazing editor who probably is watching this too, David Bielo, that it was very, very helpful.

But I would say that- Very professional organization.

So it's a likely scenario that once we understand how life as a chemical system is capable of formulating its own expression and generating a memory and manages its existence on a planetary body for billions of years, once we understand what conditions gave rise to that,

We may be very likely to understand whether a different planet also be likely to instigate its own chemical revolution if it was provided through some missing ingredients.
