Its mission is to study the primordial soup of our solar system, which is sealed away inside comets. |
The issue of the Special Creation of Life by a Higher Intelligence versus spontaneous generation from a primordial soup has been the subject of debate for many years. |
Prior to that time, particles of energy, photons, and particles of matter, protons and electrons, were all mixed together in a kind of hot primordial soup. |
Within a few steps this primordial soup gave way to mosses, ferns and damp rainforest before opening up to show a variety pollinating plants. |
So, it seems, the Earth's primordial soup was primed with the monomers for making the polymeric components of primitive life. |
It has taken three to four billion years for our species to emerge since primitive life-forms first arose in the primordial soup. |
