> Earth and its biosphere is a marvel of technology. Our world is exceedingly rare and beautiful. We lucked into an incredible solar system configuration, and evolution has done some seriously heavy lifting. The molecular biology of DNA alone -- its biochemistry and enzymatic machinery -- is enough to be its own field. > Shame we don't seem to appreciate it enough. The domain experts do. This complexity is very difficult to teach to laypeople and those not interested in science communication. It's so easy to take it all for granted. You have to develop an understanding first in order to appreciate the marvel of biology. Communication is getting easier, though. I'm sure we'll get there.
