Deck (standfirst): If the wall “heartbeat” (Part 2) passes and our protocell copying (Part 3) clears the bar, the next step is to feed that system deoxynucleosides made by daylight chemistry and watch whether deoxy content rises cycle by cycle. We stay enzyme-free:...

Deck: If the wall breathes in Part 2, the next step is to give its chemistry a memory and a reason to persist—by packaging it into protocells, copying with variation, and letting selection do the rest. First, the interface must warm itself (autocatalysis + exotherm)....

Deck: We pressure‑tested SoL/MVS against fresh field context, tightened the math, and finalized a single pass/fail Interface‑Heartbeat experiment with μW–mW targets. (Jezero was already in Part 1; this post adds Lappajärvi, oxygenation, and the full SOP.) TL;DR Jezero...

TL;DR — The origin of life doesn’t require a one-off miracle. It needs a battery (H₂/CO₂ energy), a container (vesicles, pores, or droplets), a clock (cycles like tides/day–night), and mixing. Those four pieces drive autocatalysis, which eventually yields...
