Life: The Mystery

di Jim Russ (Autore)

Outskirts Press, 2025

Have you ever wondered how life came into existence, but more importantly, have you thought where will it all end up in millions or billions of years from now? I will address this question and many others about life on this planet and the universe as well. We may not find all the answers, but we will try. It is a quest I started several years ago. I was curious about how life started from inorganic matter billions of years ago. It just seemed improbable that life just appeared one day from a combination of non-living elements and molecules. It seems like it was magic! But, was it? I seriously doubt it, but there is a certain mystic to the appearance of life. The journey we are about to take will span billions of years. We will start at the very beginning with the Big Bang and the creation of our universe, the creation of the basic elements, the formation of the Sun, the planets, our Earth, and our moon. We will explore how the elements combined to create the complexity of life. We will look at how life works now from its very simple beginning billions of years ago. We will look at the progression of life from the beginning of time to the present including where man has ended up. Lastly, we will look at the possibility of life elsewhere in the universe and where life on our planet will end up. It is a great journey written for ordinary people like me in language that we can understand. I hope you enjoy the quest. Lastly, I could not do the journey alone unassisted. I am just an ordinary man with great curiosity and with little technical expertise in this area, so we are assisted along the way by experts, lecturers, and authors. I give all the credit to them and their expert guidance. I have simply taken all their knowledge in each of their specific areas of expertise and compiled it into a single concise book of information on life along with a few of my thoughts and ideas for good measure. In any case, this book would not have been possible without their help. Thank you.
