Liquid Crystals and the Origin of Life
<p>Some important events in the origin of life on Earth probably include the concentration of carbon, the formation of complex organic molecules, sorting of those molecules into chiral types, the evolution of sustained loops of chemical interactions, formation of a replicator, a coupling of this chemistry and replication to an energy source, the origination of liquid crystallinity, and possibly a transition from indistinct networks of living material into relatively individual, self-contained entities or cells. This story concerns some of the possible scenarios for the concentration of carbon and, particularly, in the words of Robert Hazen (2001), how life was first “crafted from air, water and rock,” or, implicitly, from gaseous, liquid and crystalline matter.</p>
