We catch up with Dr. Bruce Damer from his hotel room in Lima, Peru about his research into the origin of life on this planet. Bruce currently theorizes that life itself began as microbial mats in hot water pools near volcanoes on the land, not in the ocean. He shares with us his thoughts on this and on the future colonization of our solar system, and other fun memes about the origin of biological life. Enjoy!
