About

This lecture is an exploration of the ways in which the Universe's structure is connected to the evolution of life within it. We look at the unusual properties of the Earth and the solar system that have been important factors in the evolution of terrestrial life. We see how the appearance of the night sky has influenced our conception of the universe. We consider the likelihood and possible nature of extraterrestrial forms of life.
