The origin of life--how long did it take?
Orig Life Evol Biosph.
1998 Feb.
Abstract
We do not understand the steps leading from the abiotic early earth to the RNA world. Consequently, we cannot estimate the time required for the origins of life. Attempts to circumvent this essential difficulty are based on misunderstandings of the nature of the problem.
