Cosmological Bio-thermodynamics: Life as a Mass-anchoring Governor of Planetary and Cosmic Telemetry
Year: 2026
Type: article
Abstract: This paper offers a theory of how life—as an emergent, self-replicating, thermodynamic entropic system—throughout the universe occurred and may be more common than was once thought. It does not proclaim authority by any other means other than to begin with first principles and to extrapolate from those principles a larger framework that is not separate from astrophysics, but necessary when viewed as a cosmic-scale, energy-to-mass stabilisation anchor which may even prolong the life of solar systems in which they inhabit. It hopes to offer, through scientific fact and reason, a dispersal rate of life throughout our galaxy and visible universe as an emergent, inevitable system—rather than a separate, hope-driven notion—to the question: Are we alone in this universe?
