: In the tradition of Indiana Jones, investigator of ancient cultures and supernatural mysteries, I ask all of you this question:
: What is the greatest, most profound mystery of our planet, or the universe in general, that you would like to find a definitive answer to? (answered in a scientific manner)

: Questions involving God, the afterlife, and so forth may be beyond the realm of science to document. I am thinking more along the lines of "What happened to the Maya or the Anasazi?" or "Did Atlantis really exist?"

I would like to know what is the origin of life in the Universe? Did it arise spontaneously on Earth and on other planets as well, or does it spread from place to place like organic compounds inside meteors/comets? Does it exist elsewhere in the galaxy, universe? What other forms does it take?

Then I would like to know what happened to those Anasazi, too.

Cheers,
Abner
