“I suppose my interest in looking for life elsewhere in the universe really dates back to my teens. What teenager doesn't look up at the sky at night and think am I alone in the universe? Well most people get over it, but I never did and though I made a career more in physics and cosmology than astrobiology I've always had a soft spot for the subject of life because it does seem so mysterious.”

Paul Davies, born April 22, 1946, is a British theoretical physicist, cosmologist and prolific science writer. After earning his PhD at Cambridge, he held faculty positions at Oxford, UC San Diego and the Australian National University, focusing on cosmology, quantum gravity, black‑hole thermodynamics and the physics of life's origins. Known for his interdisciplinary outlook and clear popular‑science books such as "The Mind of God" and "The Goldilocks Enigma," Davies has been elected Fellow of the Royal Society and Fellow of the American Physical Society. His research advances fundamental physics, while his outreach has shaped public understanding of the universe and its deeper philosophical implications. more
