Origin and Evolution of Earth and Life

Meer over het boek

Exploring the vast number of exoplanets, estimated to exceed 20 billion, raises intriguing questions about the potential for Earth-like planets and the existence of life beyond our own. While such planets may be common, the emergence of life and the evolution of highly advanced civilizations remain uncertain. This work emphasizes the importance of studying Earth's own biosphere to address fundamental questions about life. It summarizes cutting-edge research conducted through collaboration among 48 organizations across 28 countries, focusing on the origins and evolution of life on Earth.
