Letter: Have you ever wondered?
How the Big Bang produced our solar system with such a perfect star that has all the essential elements for life, G-2 spectral type yellow dwarf, with U-V light that produces oxygen from H2O. Our Sun has the right light for photosynthesis. 90% of stars are unable to support life. 99% of all the atoms of the universe are hydrogen and helium, yet earth has all the elements for life on the second row of the periodic table. Iron, sulfur, carbon, nitrogen, beryllium, zinc, copper; some 96 elements necessary for life. Have you ever wondered why our Sun is situated perfectly in the Milky Way far from black holes and super novas, which would destroy us. Have you ever wondered why our earth is in a circular orbit at the perfect distance from the Sun for a perfect climate for life and that our moon keeps a 23 degree tilt so that we have seasons and tides to wash our oceans? Why is our earth the perfect size for the right gravity for life and the right gravity for our atmosphere to be maintained and yet allows noxious gases to escape? Our earth’s gravity allows for mountains and therefore permits salts and nutrients to flow to oceans. Our earth has an internal inferno of radioactive elements from a supernova that drives the convection of liquid iron around the core that generates a magnetic field that shields life from cosmic rays. Have you ever wondered why Jupiter is 300 times larger than earth and steers all the solar comets away from us? Have you ever wondered why our carbon cycle, oxygen cycle, nitrogen cycle, sulphur cycle, sodium cycle and phosphorus cycle are so exquisitely and precariously balanced for life? Have you ever wondered how the Big Bang produced the perfect force between an electron and a proton, any bigger or smaller the universe would collapse? Have you ever wondered where cell membranes, protein synthesis, enzymes, reproduction come from: all necessary for the first cell? The biggest question is where did DNA come from: nobody has any idea. I wonder if we were designed by God!!!!
