After many episodes about evolution, you might wonder... how did this all get going? Where did life come from? How did life itself start? In this episode Jacob Fine, a graduate student with a passion for RNA biology, takes us on a journey more than 4 billion years into the past... to explore what life might have looked light at the very start. We will talk about the "Darwinian threshold", LUCA, the last universal common ancestor and just what spark might have started evolution.
