It's really an error of article choice for the title, it should be "Scientists Just Recreated a Chemical Reaction..."
Doubt that you read the article. It's short, but quite interesting.
Eh, I gave it a skim as I am quite familiar with the topic. Kudos to them. I personally subscribe to the what the Miller-Urey experiment shows, which is that amino acids were formed first and that basic molecules came later through enzymes.
It’s hard to believe how much of an energy differential was overcome and self replicating molecules just formed somewhere vs just having high entropy molecules to start with through lightning and primordial soup.
We would have new life popping up all the time don’t you think?
Also this type of research is a real chicken and egg scenario. No one wins because no one knows.
The egg came first.
