Rethinking
the Origin of Life

There is one avenue which has not been explored (the answer)

How  can the human race know where it is heading, if it doesn't know where it came from? The origin of life is the greatest unsolved problem in science today. While some may disagree, the reason is very simple: nobody knows what "life" even is. Or, do they? We at Rushton Research have uncovered a very bright light at the end of a very long, dark tunnel in the quest to understand the origin and nature of life. ​​

What if the answer to life is not physics and chemistry after all, but pure logic? This is certainly unconventional, but it isn't exactly crazy. We think life is the physical embodiment of a universal communication architecture which we call the Canonical Communication Architecture or CCA.

 

Every living cell contains the CCA. In fact, our work demonstrates it is exactly how cells communicate the all-important genetic information. Generally speaking, this makes life a "quasi" law of nature - it is a law, but not a law in the conventional sense of physics and chemistry, it is a law of communication logic.

We don't dare claim to have finally found the answer to life. But we are convinced nobody can prove us wrong.​

This is why we launched Rushton Research in 2026. Listen to our highly engaging podcasts. Read our papers. Do not believe our words: judge for yourself.

 

If you think there is a flaw in our theory then enter Rushton's Wager. The wager is open to everyone. If no flaws are found, then we might have stumbled on the secret of life.

 

Now, wouldn't that be something.
