What is life? Where did it come from? Is it all part of a divine master plan, or was it a spectacular chemical “accident”? Are we alone in the universe? If not, will life elsewhere be similar to that on Earth or completely different? And if different, then how can we detect or recognize it?

KLI Senior Fellow Wim Hordik tackles these questions in his new 3-part serie published in ORBITER magazine. Enjoy part 1 of the series: https://orbitermag.com/how-did-life-begin-part-1/
