Beginning of paper
Today, we've realised that the very first life on Earth was indeed originated from abiotic surroundings. In fact, organic molecules have been successfully generated from abiotic elements by scientists
To understand how this creation of life from abiotic material occured, we have to consider a crit ....

.... the cosmic and radioactive isotope decays UV light: there were no protective ozone layer and thus immense heat. Electrical discharge from the never ending lightning caused chemical reactions to occur very often and there was also another source of heat from the young earth crust which was volcanically active.
For most chemical reactions to take place, a spark of electricity is needed, and this was provided by the lightning in the atmosphere. Amino acids basically consist of hydrogen, nitrog ....
