Sabine | Life Began Much Faster Than We Thought

Scientists believe that all life on Earth originated from one single organism, the Last Universal Common Ancestor, LUCA.

Now, researchers have uncovered evidence that LUCA was much more complex than previously thought, which is puzzling because it didn’t have a lot of time to evolve.


This seems to suggest that life can come into being much faster than we thought.


Let’s take a look.
