The big three run the universe:  Matter, Energy, and Entropy

    The big three run the universe:  Matter, Energy, and Entropy. 1st. Matter takes up space:  Matter is the stuff that makes up the universe; everything that takes up space and has mass is matter.  It made all matter up of atoms, which comprise protons,...

Life is three-dimensional, and it begins with molecules

Life is molecule-driven: Life is three-dimensional, and it begins with molecules.  The DNA double helix embodies the central role that three-dimensional structures play in understanding biological processes. The biological matter comprises small molecules (e.g.,...

We consume star stuff. We are children of the stars

THE STELLAR BIRTH OF LIFE:  A star’s higher calling is to produce life.  A first-generation star starts with carbon, oxygen, nitrogen, potassium, and four trace elements.  Then, gravity puts the pressure on.  We are the chemical legacy of the stars.  Our reason...
