We are pouring huge amounts of energy into the biological effort to understand where life came from, how it arose on planet Earth, because it matters to us; it is, perhaps our deepest question.

And if we discover that some of that life beyond Earth is intelligent, a whole new vista of possible human experience opens up before us. — Michael Brooks

In the back of my mind, I can never forget this could be gone tomorrow - and at this point I think the odds are against me ... the chances of succeeding in this business are slim to none; there's only a handful of people that have long careers.
