TH_05 — The Water-Carbon-Chirality Triple Lock

Life appears to need three separate lucky breaks: water, with all its strange life-friendly quirks; carbon, the one atom flexible enough to build living molecules; and a curious one-handedness, where life uses only "left

TH_01 — The Single-Path Hypothesis

Most people who've heard of cosmic "fine-tuning" know the gist: nudge a few of physics' built-in numbers and life becomes impossible. This theory pushes harder and says those numbers don't merely allow life — they force
