VINDICATION OF
COSMIC BIOLOGY
Tribute to Sir Fred Hoyle (1915-2001)
In the year 2015,100 years after Fred Hoyle was born, the ideas relating
to the cosmic origins of life are slowly gaining credence in scientific
circles. Once regarded as outrageous heresy, evidence from a variety of
disciplines - astronomy, geology, biology - is converging to support
these once heretical ideas.
This volume opens with recent review articles pointing incontrovertibly
towards our cosmic heritage, followed by a collection of published articles
tracing the development of the theory throughout the years. The
discovery that microorganisms - bacteria and viruses - are incredibly
resistant to the harshest conditions of space, along with the detection
of an estimated 144 billion habitable planets around other star systems
in our galaxy alone, makes it virtually impossible to maintain that life
on one planet will not interact with life elsewhere. The emerging position
is that life arose exceedingly rarely, possibly only once, in the history of
the cosmos, but its subsequent spread was unstoppable. Panspermiology
can no longer be described as an eccentric doctrine, but rather is the
only doctrine supported by an overwhelming body of evidence. Fred
Hoyle s work in this area may in the fullness of time come to be regarded
as his most important scientific contribution.
