LUCA, our Last Universal Common Ancestor (2)

LUCA, our Last Universal Common Ancestor (2)

The article below makes me wonder if I should reconsider my complexity vs simplicity blogs. The default in life, nature and the universe appears to be complexity. Moreover, it also suggest there's a blueprint in life, nature and the universe. Also see my 2025 blog: Is a Universal design likely? Obviously, an organism with an "early immune system" that was "fighting...

What is important?

A 1915 war poem by Julian Grenfell (1888-1915) mentioned the 3 most important items: Life is colour, warmth and light; my 2022 blog. Other people may add beauty, hope, inspiration, love, peace, and/or water. In my view, beauty and peace are in the eye of the beholder. Hence, personal and relative. Almost each day, I express my gratitude for the items above....

De stuiptrekkingen van de oerknal theorie?

Intro LO: Een recent artikel luidt: Zwart gat ontdekt dat mogelijk ontstond vlak na oerknal.

De oerknal theorie was een sarcastische grap van astronoom Fred Hoyle (1915-2001) in 1950 (o.a. SA-2020,...

What if LUCA is older than Earth?

In 2016, I published my blog: LUCA, our Last Universal Common Ancestor. A recent Aeon article stated that life "emerged far earlier, and far quicker, than we once thought possible". Current estimates: "LUCA lived between 4.09 and 4.33 billion years ago [..]." Earth's age is 4.54 billion years. What if LUCA will - once - be estimated as older than Earth ??...

The Remarkable Emptiness of Existence (Nautilus)

In 2024, I wrote my blog: Does the aether represent “dark” matter & energy? The 2023 Nautilus article below has an interesting claim: The void in the universe is alive. I must agree considering if only considering the existence of viruses (eg, astrovirology, Fred Hoyle, NatGeo, NIH, panspermia). I suppose that our houses have a certain ratio between something...

Allergies (2)

About a month ago, I assumed that I suffered from food poisoning. I failed to understand its rather late timing. About week later, I ate my favourite cashew nuts - again. The next day, my bowel and stomach symptoms reappeared. Last weekend, I enjoyed an Indian lamb curry. The menu claimed it contained cashew nuts but I didn’t notice them (eg, crushed nuts). The next...
