      If we did not exist in the world do you think the place would be as interesting and diverse? Humans are here to stay to make a difference to the world…what would you be of you weren’t a human??

      The question of why-mmm I can’t answer that! Well we do, so we do….

      Lots of theories of how us Humans came around.

      Check out Nick Lane from UCL and also the LEAP project at St Andrews Uni(investigating if life on other planets could be initiated by lightening)

      Astrobiology is a whole new area in physics-hence the SETI institute in the USA. Lots of ideas going around about the ideal conditions for life, namely that need liquid water, plate tectonics and very specific chemical environments.
