If the deep marine hydrothermal setting was the site for the origin of life, then abiogenesis could have happened as early as 4.0-4.2 Gya. If life evolved in the ocean at depths of more than ten meters, it would have been shielded both from impacts and the then high levels of ultraviolet radiation from the sun.
A scenario is a set of related concepts pertinent to the origin of life (abiogenesis), such as the iron-sulfur world.Many alternative abiogenesis scenarios have been proposed by scientists in a variety of fields from the 1950s onwards in an attempt to explain how the complex mechanisms of life could have come into existence.
Antonie van Leeuwenhoek. Traditional religion attributed the origin of life to deities who created the natural world. Spontaneous generation, the first naturalistic theory of abiogenesis, goes back to Aristotle and ancient Greek philosophy, and continued to have support in Western scholarship until the 19th century.

Not only has life expectancy not surpassed 85 in nearly any county, the U.S. famously saw a decline in life expectancy, and in 2023, it was the lowest it’s been in two decades (though Harvard ...
If true, this would challenges the common belief [3] [4] in existence of a fixed maximal human life span. Biodemographic studies have found that even genetically identical laboratory animals kept in constant environment have very different lengths of life, suggesting a crucial role of chance and early-life developmental noise in longevity ...
Life expectancy is decelerating, and current strategies won’t lead to radically longer survival. Life expectancy is decelerating, and current strategies won’t lead to radically longer survival
The average life expectancy of someone with this disease is around 46 years. [57] This condition can also affect the weight distribution between the arms, legs, and torso. [ 58 ] Those who have Werner syndrome are at an increased risk for cataracts, type 2 diabetes , different types of cancers, and atherosclerosis . [ 56 ]
Life expectancy in the U.S. is projected to increase from 78.3 years in 2022 to 79.9 years in 2035 and to 80.4 years in 2050 for all sexes combined, researchers said.
