What If Alien Life Were Silicon-Based?
推荐理由
PBS Space Time has a very good & informative episode covering this.
说明
这是2023年由PBS Space Time发布的一部讲解,主题归在Chemistry。它讲的是alien biochemistry这一支里的具体问题,而不是把整个领域扫一遍。适合按兴趣直接看、不打算先补课的人。内容上可以概括成:PBS Space Time considers whether life could be based on silicon instead of carbon, comparing the two elements' chemistry and why silicon is the most plausible alternative.这些读者给出的理由,核心是:Recommended as a solid, informative treatment of silicon-based life and the chemical limits on alien biochemistry.讲法不绑某一条新闻,过几年仍然可以当材料看。从2023年到2025年,有1位不同的读者在1个不同月份把它推荐出来,其中明确叫别人去看的有0次。适合用一集把一个概念补上的人。抓住它用的那个图像或类比,比背公式重要。如果已经会了基本定义,就把注意力放在它怎么把alien biochemistry变成能跟着复述的例子。
