The biological hypothesis of panspermia.
00:08
And it was suggested by francis crick and leslie orgel in 1973 that earth's first living things were potentially sent here intentionally by an advanced civilization.
00:18
They sort of started it as a joke, but they also kind of look at it seriously enough to consider.
00:26
Well, looking at the fact that so many of our organisms on the planet have the exact same code or the universality of the genetic code kind of follows from an infective theory that is that there is an advanced civilization that brought it to earth and then life on earth could represent a clone and then some derivations of that clone since then however there are other evidences to demonstrate that the genetic code is not universal and that organisms do have somewhat different sets of coding in their genes.
01:08
For example, the mitochondria do not mirror the kind of coding that happens in their nucleus.
01:14
Siliates and other protozylons also have slightly deviant codes from 1992 and 1999 study.
01:22
There are three main questions that come from this information.
01:27
The first question is if the information that countered since 1973 is strong enough to refute the panspermia hypothesis.
01:40
The second question is if there's other versions of this hypothesis that are out there, how strongly would that evidence refute these other versions and to explain? and the third question is, can you think of some other kinds of different evidences? and that would either, and you could do one or the other either to support the hypothesis, of pansepermia if that's the direction that you want to go or other kinds of evidences to further refute some version either the original that was in 1973 by francis crick and leslie orville or other versions since that time.
02:25
So this is pretty much open ending and i could see it from both points of view.
02:30
I'm going to give it presented as panpspermia being a strong high hypothesis, maybe not in the way that francis crick and orgel.
02:44
Orgel was the man's name.
02:47
The other fellow decided earlier on, but certainly panspermia, which is from the ancient greek pan, meaning all.
02:59
And then, of course, the other part sperm and means seed.
03:02
So that life exists throughout the universe, distributed basically by space dust, meteorites, asteroids, comets, planetoids.
03:10
And what we can see, even in certain meteorites and things rocks from the moon, rocks from mars that we've picked up and gathered and examined that there is this possibility, unintended contamination by microorganisms.
03:38
And the space station, international space station, even has gathered some evidence.
03:48
Or nuclear material, being that it's similar of the genetic material.
03:59
So there's a couple of different versions.
04:03
There's radio panspermia.
04:05
There's lithopanspermia, which is a planetary ejection from other planets.
04:10
Accidental panspermia, directed panspermia.
04:14
Pseudopanformia.
04:17
And with the then proto -panspermia, there's some sort of of collective since the big bang starts off the whole deal and all of that information is already there at the beginning of the implosion.
04:35
It makes sense that it would be just a little slight notch in making the product of our environment what it is and having the information available...
