Description:

Cheap Astronomy finds some meaning in life.

– Can life arise in a hydrogen atmosphere? 

There’s a lot of current interest in this following a recent demonstrations that a range of microorganisms can survive in a 100% hydrogen atmosphere. But surviving is only part of the story.

– What other forms of life are possible? 

It is quite difficult to imagine a different form of life than what we see about us since what we see about us is the only example we have.
