论文摘要
NASA应该为火星设计任务,以产生“啊哈!”发现震撼科学家的发现,考虑了生命的分子起源。这些任务应以了解可能在地球上产生益元的特权化学作用,以及限制达尔文分子的结构的普遍化学原理。
NASA should design missions to Mars for the purpose of generating "Aha!" discoveries to jolt scientists contemplating the molecular origins of life. These missions should be designed with an understanding of the privileged chemistry that likely created RNA prebiotically on Earth, and universal chemical principles that constrain the structure of Darwinian molecules generally.
