Description
About the Book
A pioneering physicist explores the likelihood of a subterranean biosphere, one that exists in a gaseous atmosphere at a very high temperature and pressure, and survives on chemical energy--hydrocarbons. This stunning book offers new insights into the origins of life, the origins of natural gas and petroleum, and the distribution of life in the universe.Book Synopsis
