    • Thanks Professor. This is an interesting topic to explore. Scientists some times claim that there hasn’t been an evidence of life on other planets, however it is important to note what characteristic/definition of life these scientists used in their search. There is a possibility that what we consider to be life or the properties of life isn’t the same with other planets. Then we are left to think that there is possibility we have seen life on other planets with features those not fit in our definition of life on earth

    • The scarcity of appearance of all the elements existing together…

    • Life may be defined as a self sufficient chemical system that can experience exclusion in an inclusive space time

    • Life may be defined as a self sustainable chemical system that can experience exclusion in an inclusive space time

    • Very much intestinal in this topic, willing to go in deep.

    • Thank you to Prof. Dimitar Sassilovfor the opportunity to attend this course. My Ukrainian and russian heritage recognize your name spelt differently. Dmitry, Dimitri, your duo PhD`s and work on exoplanets is something to look for in the bookstore. I grew up near Toronto. But i admire Sofia, and also Brasov. I am aiming for a Doctorate in Astronomy, perhaps exploring my `skydisc` concept of circumpolar regions. Prof. Andrew Strominger is an inspiration, so thanks to Harvard Alumni!

      My polarcusp research shows stellar and onterstellar drop-ins with Uranyl, a water+ uranium molecule moderating radiation. My thesis prediction is for thornyl to exist.

      We only exist in moderated ragiation environments as biologicals.
