Cosmic Questions is a continuing discussion group focusing on how life may have arisen on earth. Two different streams of thought will form the basis of our discussions: (1) how could life have arisen de novo from simple geochemical molecules and (2) could life on earth have been seeded from an extraterrestrial source? Updates of observations from the James Webb telescope will be part of these discussions. The group is pursuing outside expert speakers that will address these topics.
