Re: Life? If so, abiogensis or panspermia?
we have two alternatives for explaining our spatially separated co-existence: either abiogenesis occurs multi-regionally or panspermia really works
​
um, hoot, you do realize that panspermia requires abiogenesis, right? It might explain how life got to a planet, but not how life got started. i mean jeez, you have a whole thread (at 305 posts) to figure that out. you still haven't apparently.
​
and if you want to continue that whole bit about DNA and digital codes, there's a new thread for that.

Re: Life? If so, abiogensis or panspermia?
this is all off-topic, but . . .
​
to carry those precious spores from the planet that hosted abiogenesis to the one that didn't. No?
​
why a planet? we have evidence of amino acids in space itself.
​
and the way you wrote:
either abiogenesis occurs multi-regionally or panspermia really works.
​
implies two different foundational processes. It implies either abiogenesis or panspermia. It does not imply that panspermia requires abiogenesis.
​
again, this is all probably off-topic.
