Abstract
Since there is no information about life’s early chemistry, this article reviews aspects of the physics of the origin of life and its first evolutionary steps. Moreover, the chemistry of the ancient environment in which life arose and to which it responded, differed enormously from the present one. Choosing the physics of the earliest steps life could have taken allows a bottom-up approach from first principles.
