In this episode, Dr. James Tour examines hyperbole surrounding origin of life claims. Beyond a mere attribution to the press for creating hype, Dr. Tour looks into the published works by researchers themselves, discovering a more proper attribution of the source. He then elaborates how this snowballs further by the press into confusion by professors and laypersons. Finally, some agreement on prebiotic relevance is revealed.

Erratum: At 3m24s, there is a typo: "reign" should be spelled "rein". This was caught after the video was published. Because YouTube doesn't allow correcting this once uploaded, and because this doesn't affect the substance of the information being presented, this video will remain as is.

The passionate thumbnail for this video uses a still frame image taken from Dr. Tour's video on Flash Graphene when he says "any" in the phrase "any carbon source" at 0:12: [ Ссылка ]
