BBC Documentary: Chaos & Life Origins

For all those interested in extending their thinking about the possibilites of exo-life, beyond the usual explanations, but still wishing to stay within the realms of the standard 'pillars' of Mainstream Science, try this …

"The Secret Life of Chaos"

Channel: SBS One
Day: Tuesday 5th April (next Tuesday)
Time: 8:30 pm (1 hr)

Quote:
Chaos theory has a bad name, conjuring up images of unpredictable weather, economic crashes and science gone wrong. But there is a fascinating and hidden side to Chaos, one that scientists are only now beginning to understand.
Professor Jim Al-Khalili sets out to uncover one of the great mysteries of science - how does a universe that starts off as dust end up with intelligent life?
How does order emerge from disorder? (From the UK) (Documentary)
I think I've seen snippets of this on Youtube and I think its definitely worthwhile.
I look forward to the program, and any follow up discussions .. hope other folks do too.

Cheers
