“Know Yourself”, said Socrates

“Know Yourself”, said Socrates (or was it Plato, actually Plato’s translator). Don’t loose yourself in translation. Knowledge is deeply personal, know yourself.

We’re made of star stuff. We are a way for the cosmos to know itself.

- Carl Sagan (1934–1996)

The beginning of biological life is only would be a mistake but I want to take a few moments to tell you about what we think the origin more or less, o sepi to poli.
