The Grayness of the Origin of Life [PDF]
In the search for life beyond Earth, distinguishing the living from the non-living is paramount. However, this distinction is often elusive, as the origin of life is likely a stepwise evolutionary process, not a singular event. Regardless of the favored origin of life model, an inherent “grayness” blurs the theorized threshold defining life.

Origins of Life: Chemistry and Evolution [PDF]
Our understanding of the origins of life will be enhanced if models and their predictions are clearly understood and explicitly articulated. Here we outline two distinct models that are currently used to explain the origins of life.

The origin of life is in a sense a genetic problem, for, as H. J. Muller pointed out many years ago, the essential attribute that identifies living matter is its capacity to replicate itself and its variants (1). Because this uniquely biological property has its physical basis in proteins and nucleic acids, the goal of modern work on the origin of life

Evolution of Realistic Organic Mixtures for the Origins of Life through Wet–Dry Cycling
One of the challenges in understanding chemical evolution is the large number of starting organics and environments that were plausible on early Earth. Starting with realistic organic mixtures and using chemical analyses that are not biologically biased,
