Did Life on Earth Begin on Earth?
21/09/2009
Dr Terry Kee of the Chemistry Department at Leeds University gave an interesting talk entitled "Did Life on Earth Begin on Earth?" 
Dr Kee looked at the evidence that life, or at least the organic chemicals which started life on earth, may have come from elsewhere in space (panspermia). He brought some meteorites with him to put talk into context.
 
This was an engaging presentation enjoyed by all the girls who attended and a number of our senior scientists stayed behind to continue the conversation.
