Directed Motion as a Source of Life
By
Austin I. Weber
Our world, when first formed, would have
an atmosphere of oxygen, nitrogen, hydrogen, carbon
dioxide, ammonia, water, nitrogen oxides, methane,
hydrogen cyanide and other low molecular weight elements
and compounds. This is shown to occur in Weber’s
Cataclysmic Collision Theory, Appendix
40. In addition, the Collision Theory also
indicates that the preponderance of compounds first
formed would have been water, methane, ammonia and
carbon dioxide.
As the earth cooled through radiation,
gaseous water would condense into rain. As the
rain poured down it would have continuously take with
it many of the various gases in the atmosphere. This
would gather into hot lakes and rivers.
Many polymeric amino acid compounds
would form. As linear polymers their molecular
motion would be quite chaotic. It could now
be possible to conceive that two of these chains would
join chemically head to tail and head to tail forming
an elongated closed loop. If this were to happen,
the molecular motion would have been constrained and
possibly be converted to an undulating motion. This
could cause the molecule to move forward and backward.
Should further modification occur, such
as the loop becoming helical and one end becoming heavier,
possibly by the addition of a side chain, the molecule
could then move in one direction. Now, with motility,
the molecule could continue to grow and conceivably
this would be the birth of life.
