If people are comparing her to Carl Sagan’s speaking style, I’d take that as a compliment. That man could demystify some pretty complex, and socially pertinent topics in a remarkable way. I for one applaud her. Well done.
Australian English is not good English. Sorry to say that.
@@seanleith5312 and what is a "good" English according to you? There's nothing like a "good English". It's international language with many variants eh
I'm starting to worry about the kind of world we are leaving behind for Kieth Richards.
@@spaghetti_monster and twinkies, I believe twinkies have a longer shelf life than even Kieth himself...but we will see! Or perhaps not.
Hilarious and factual. Right on
there is a nearly endless supply of wife possibilities, so, peace friend.
LOL. Priceless. Your comment is probably the most intellectual comment in the string of comments on this video and the most intellectual experience of my watching this video. No, I am not being flippant or sarcastic. Truly a genius statement. Hilarious!
A beauty !
After watching several
Ted talks I realize one thing, I should have been studying instead of watching the
3 Stooges.
vincentj Ahh, but it’s good to laugh at such comedy genius...
The Three Stooges were much more entertaining than this monologue of garble. I wonder what she was trying to make valid I have no idea . Was there a message here ?
USA USA USA
Maybe studying the 3 Stooges rather than just watching them…specially Moe, he was a genius
Ironically all we’ve proven so far is that we are all as dumb as rocks
Now that's a bit jaded, don't you think? Yes it's easy to focus on the stupid, and it is rampant, but remember to see the opposite. We also gave rise to Mozart and Da Vinci, Einstein and Hawking, Colin Chapman and Robin Williams. Today our artists push and stretch our limits ever further and our scientists continue to pull the threads unlocking the realities of the very fabric of the universe we are a part of.
Remember, if you only see rocks you will probably become a rock.
Haha...We are what we are. your comment pre-supposes that we are meant to be around forever. try thinking this way- just like 3.5 billion yrs ago bacteria produced an oxygenated earth, we are here changing the conditions that support life on earth. in fact our job may well be to put all of this carbon back in the atmosphere and set the stage for the next round of evolution. it is not all about a lineal progression of more advanced evolution. that is not the history of life on this earth to date. it just sucks if you are too precious about humanity. its not precious in a geological timescale.
I am made from the dust of the stars, so in answer to you comment, yes.
Oh, you are sooo right...humans are the worst of all species-dumb-egocentric- critters have the game rocked...can't wait til we're extinct and critters will no longer be tortured.

Yeah I suppose, if she bent over, grabbed her ankles, and asked really nice, I'd
It's market value could sky rocket after this video ! 😃
day tripper yes it was, I had one !
It took a real idiot to buy a pet rock.
yeah to spread darwins atheistic beliefs to spread his agenda to drag humanity to think that there is no GOD and we are here just accidentally :D
In the future, this comment section would be a digitally fossilised evidence for why the human beings went extinct.
Aishwariya Sweety who or what will be reading it..... I’m perplexed by that life form.
I was here 🥺
@@zaydawood5354 my guess is AI or some alien intelligence. Or intelligence that forms on earth after millions of years of our demise.
🤣🤣🤣
Aishwariya Sweety
Likely the reason even.
It will be evidence we tried, that we knew only love and kindness matter, that that frequency is that of source energy, and that gratitude to God in all that we do produces more abundance the lack there of and to seek first the kingdom of God.
It will be a digital record of our love, and attempts, to save one another.

My theory is we were created by aliens as a science project. Now we are the most popular channel on their comedy channel network.
You are closer than you probably realise to fact the speaker seems unaware of. We have known as long as synthetic chemistry that no matter how much chance you give chemicals they can not really reach complex molecules like carbohydrates. This is directly leading to intelligent design re examination! ET is the Only alternative to God.
@@gazmasonik2411 Actually they told me while I was taken in their ship. They are awesome.
They told me they preferred that Mars documentary the Red planet. Didn't understand comedy preferred extinction events! Raving about Bloody David Attenborough he's everywhere. So someome isn't being honest
Lol!!!!
@@gazmasonik2411 Then who or what created those aliens which created us..?
I think the way she speaks made me to watch the whole video.
I think the way she speaks is what led me to reading posts like this one while she droned on about 4 bil yrs and we’ve now got it all figured out. Just saying...
She is beautiful and articulates her self very well.
M 500 it made me skip forward. It's funny how people have such opposing reactions to the same stimuli.
She must be Carl Sagan's lost daughter. Both talk so painfully slow that they drive me crazy. And English is not my native language. I can't imagine the anxiety native English speakers would feel.

Reasonable hypothesis for what is unknown and not proven. That is the best we can do for now.
It's God awful. pukeworthy
What a fabulous speaker. A good example of how to present information in a captivating way without the need for showmanship.
and with any facts...
Tara obviously spent a lot of time preparing for this very interesting talk. Her delivery was crystal clear and very engaging.
That's what I said "capitilla".
One interesting sidenote she doesn’t mention- bacteria love human hosts, amongst other living candidates. All that fancy oxygen they helped create inadvertently gave them luxury condos.
true; however, there are bacteria that thrive in many environments, halophiles, psychrophiles, thermophiles, etc. Also, there are certain bacteria that consume gases such as Hydrogen sulfide. also there are aerobic and anaerobic bacteria which means that some bacteria don't love oxygen at all.
TestosteroneRN fascinating stuff. I know bits and pieces but always happy to have some new terms and concepts to investigate 🤘
I have seen a video on bacteria and the sheer amount of bacteria on the planet and in our bodies. I'm foggy on the numbers they quoted but it was insane like 1 in 10 cells in your body are actually yours and the conspiracy theory is bacteria dominate the planet and we are their cows lol
concept1027
Hey... you miss the point. Modern research into the Human biomesphere (as extended to all complex life) suggest that we are as parasitic of the microbes as they are of us. That their free lunch is ours. That in fact the degree of symbiosis is truly symbiotic, as in without our walking zoo of microbial life we would not and could not function and be complete at all.
They ain't just hitchin' a free ride... they have helped form us as we are. They are an integral part.
But I agree... she should stick to waving a rock around and theorising about life's Origins. Her comments on Complex Life leave a lot to be desired. Plants only photosynthesize and release oxygen for example, because they have incorporated the very same oxygen releasing bacteria she speaks of, into their cells. It is simply no good to suggest as she has that plants later took over the role of producing oxygen, since the bacteria are still there, and still responsible.
Michael Gallagher Actually it’s closer to 1.3 bacteria per human cell. Research shows somewhere round 30-50 trillion bacterial cells in each human- so yes we are their cows or maybe we’re in their matrix.
What a marvelous speaker!
Totally agree! She is so clear and her presentation takes us on an informative journey.
She could use more body language.
Beautiful presentation of a myriad of assumptions and guesses.
I am subtitling this video into Arabic, hoping to be able for all Arabian people, and useful for humanity.
Good job!
@@stealthis thanks!
It's being reviewed right now. Once it approved, it will be public.
Good work mate! We need all brains on earth thinking about this stuff. I hope the listeners/readers (and yourself) will be free from persecution though. I do worry that we have lost too many Einsteins, Attenboroughs or Darwin's to poverty, diesese or dogma in the last hundred years alone. Knowledge will be the saviour of our species, ideology perhaps the end
Arabs need to drop the religion first
@@emceeboogieboots1608 all you mentioned struggled to be as them. Don't worry. All that come, will be come.
She's a really good speaker. I wish more people cared about our little blue rock.
And that's where her reliability and authenticity lived and died... Such a really good statuesque speaker with a lot of BOMBAST and EMOTIONAL STUFF unworthy of scientific note... Sheesh! Tara Djokc never proved that Geyserite in Australia "This ancient rock is changing our theory on the origin of life..." 90% fluff and 9% emotional crescendo, less than 1% of information in visuals and audio... such a RELATIVELY MODERN way of BLUFFING one's way to make people "feel" science! :)
@@thevagabondsgambit jeez dude, does she really make you feel that insecure?
@@davebox588 Hahahahaha... Nah... :) You're dead wrong! :)

Start caring by learning some facts based in historical records and not hyperbole. No ocean dwelling fish ever "crawled" out of the ocean to become a land animal, if this had occurred there would be millions upon millions in the fossil record indicating the slow progression of this mutation which, if it had occurred, would have put these mutating life forms in grave danger of survival due to their slow evolution and they most likely would died off long before attaining life on land. Evolution is junk science, period. Here's some real science based in the historical record with good comparisons to the crap spewed by humans over time about the currency "evolving" climate crisis nonsense: realclimatescience.com
@@thevagabondsgambit try looking through TED talks, find male scientists expounding on their peer reviewed research, then see how many men challenge their research. Not many, is the answer. You're American and those bossy females who know stuff keep making you feel bad because if only you hadn't tried to be the cool kid at school you could have been a genius by now.
Next time, maybe answer with a bit less alcohol in your system, have a bit more respect when a scientist tells you something in front of an audience of his/her peers, and a be less obvious INCEL.
I love the timing and the way she talk
"Earthlings are so weird, they're impossible to write about! We're gonna spend half the movie explaining their back story."
"Don't worry, I've got an idea for a nine-minute intro scene."
"What is it?"
"An human scientist telling the entire history of life on Earth to explain a rock she found."
"Noone's gonna buy it, but put it in anyway."
People sometimes forget that this planet is hosting all sorts of beautiful living creatures, not just humans.
thank god you reminded me. should we feel guilty when we wash? i mean all those bacteria and nematode worms n stuff??
@@HarryNicNicholas nah, but it doesn't hurt to feel grateful for their work with oxygen. To develop empathy towards living things it is best to start with other mammals, like dogs. Then work your way towards other branches of life. It has nothing to do with guilt.
@Josef H. Ebola is not a creature. But regardless you are missing the point.
Aki Rodic
Living... beautiful... etc..
Harry Nicholas
It's OK... they like getting clean aswell.
What she’s leaving out is the fact that any decent organic chemist can explain to her that even with a good ‘soup’ it’s mathematically improbable that any amino acids that could’ve been available could ever actually form any proteins in a non-directed manner.
But as with any self replicating system… it only has to start once.
@@christianweller4288 Way before replicating you need a Functioning Cell. Read anything on the complexity of a Cell lately?
Oh! Beautiful! What a beautiful presentation!
great speaker. so pleasant.
Yes, she is!! LOL!!
Her conclusion sounds like it was taken from Sagan's "A Pale Blue Dot".
PLAGURISM IS RAMPANT AMONG IDIOTS
That's why they invented religions! For the ignorant fools!
@@robertorourke6614 it's spelled plagiarism. And multiple scientists coming to a common conclusion based on a careful scientific analysis of the data and the observations is not plagiarism. It's called reproducing the results and is an important part of determining the veracity of one's conclusions. That's how science works. If no one can reproduce your experimental results, then it's most likely a problem with your results.
@@crhkrebs you are correct plagiarism. I thought I had corrected that error & thats most important point in this discussion apart from the kiss. & the recent statement that nothing came from nothing. as far as reality goes, science is not even close to its sperm & the egg stage, unfortunately you,ve got a stuffed shirt name & I learned it from a book horrible attitude,
sorry but I have no use of brain cells for consciousness & am not a pearl to swine thrower, If you did not come here to be insulted, tell me, where you usually go?
@@robertorourke6614 off your rocker and into the grass eh?
That was a clearheaded, eloquent, and powerful presentation.
Deep sea vents would have been shielded from solar radiation, which i contend might be a key component of the creation and evolution of life.
what if there is no deep sea, or events for that matter, but rather just a bunch of conscious bubbles programmed to think there was
Or perhaps this one: we were created to invent what happened to bring us into being, so that whoever created us could implement that invention and see what happened…and also by us inventing it we would elevate our consciousness enough to realize we were programmed and thus program other bubbles to do the same
@@Williamb612 Noooooooo!!! Stop that, you're making me think when I'd just kicked the habit!! 😵
Nothing is more humbling and adventuresome than intellect and open curiosity.
Life has a very complex, intricate and magnificently defined operating structure. It is called DNA. There is not one example of "life" without this DNA "operating system" that organizes the protein factories that produce life. Question? Since the DNA precedes life, How do you "evolve" the complex DNA molecules that produce life? Question No. 2: Everything in the universe appears to be "devolving" from a higher state of energy, ie, organization, to a lower state. Examples: Suns die, not enhance, planets cool off, best theory is that is the way they are formed, by cooling, originating from a singularity. Why is "life" the only thing ever postulated to "evolve" into a higher state of energy, ie, organization? Seems contrary to the entire structure of the universe.
"There is not one example of "life" without this DNA "operating system" that organizes the protein factories that produce life." Aaah......RNA containing viruses may beg to differ. "Everything in the universe appears to be "devolving" from a higher state of energy, ie, organization, to a lower state." Wrong. You should familiarize yourself with what happens in the Orion Nebula or the Ophiuchi Cloud complex, just to name some nearby examples. And you should learn a bit more about Entropy if you think it is a valid argument against the evolution of complexity.
I like the way she said “like our microbial predecessor “
After being reluctant to watch TED-Talks, I recently discovered that I was right in the first place. Most of the time their selling proposition is exaggeration of evidence and a modern presentation. But the topics and presentation quality are more or less arbitrary.
Well people love shocking stories
'Exaggeration of evidence' what are you talking about?
like the flame when a match strikes, we appear and burn brightly for a moment - then gone in a sputter of wasted carbon

2:43 "Here I came across something rather special...
...it was an ancient fossilized lens protector"

bj0rn
Hah... Non-Critical Fan Fare.
@@gammakeraulophon well it is undeniably an interesting topic, she does speak well, and he clearly enjoyed the talk. So what's your beef?
Dave Box
Go look at my original replies to which you have left unanswered and you 'may' find out.
Here is a summary (not that I expect you to reply with any substance, since interacting with real Science is not your thing.. you seem to just favour the non critical 'lovely' and the unquestioning 'interesting' as valid comment);
You miss all kinds of points here in relation to bacterial microbes.
Modern research into the Human biomesphere (as extended to all complex life) suggest that we are as parasitic of the microbes as they are of us. That their free lunch is ours. That in fact the degree of symbiosis is truly symbiotic, as in without our walking zoo of microbial life we would not and could not function and be complete at all.
They ain't just hitchin' a free ride... they have helped form us as we are. They are an integral part.
This Speaker should stick to waving a rock around and theorising about Life's Origins;
Rock = X Years More Ancient Than Previously Expected, Origin of Life Is 'Perhaps' Geyser Related Rather Than Ocean Floor.
And such is it... such is her thesis. Would take about 15 seconds to present.
The rest is rather superfluous and inaccurate padding at best, and empty and unsubstantiated conjecture at worst.
She makes a fool's play at pretending to know about (later) Complex Life formation. But her comments leave a lot to be desired.
Plants only photosynthesize and release oxygen because they have incorporated the very same oxygen releasing bacteria she speaks of, into their cells.
It is simply no good to suggest as she has that plants later took over the role of producing oxygen, since the bacteria are still there, and are still responsible.
Likewise, her comment to suggest that microbial life's 3 billion year reign is over.
They are both everywhere and continuingly instrumental.
Beyond the rock and some life origin hypothesis.. I fail to understand the commentary.
Largely superfluous and stage playing outside of it's core hypothesis.
But as per usual plenty of children out there enjoyed it.
@Mark Jolliffe
Thanks for taking the time to elaborate.
@@gammakeraulophon its either just say life started by some chance or admit that its impossible due to pure and applied chemistry. They cant examine any other way . It hurts too much.
Cool! So we’re preparing the earth for its future inhabitants! Hopefully they are as much better than us - as we were better than what we replaced! This is obviously the next great evolutionary step for our our planet and for life. We should all do our best to help expedite this transition and usher in the future!
Are we really? Better? Microbial life mamaged to maintain a somewhat stable environment for millions of years, before some "radicals" started pumping tons of oxygen into the atmosphere. How long can we keep things stable the way they're heading right now?
So, not better - simply different. As different as the next dominant species on this planet will be to us.
@@JescoLincke Could be we are just more efficient and effective at bringing about rapid evolutionary change than the microbial life we supposedly succeeded. We need to be careful when throwing around theories about the remote past, because sometimes it sounds like the current trajectory of life of earth is merely the inevitable progression of what, we claim, brought us to the scene.
She made more sense when watched at x2 the speed. :-)
Yeh, you are right, who would thought ahy.
X1.25
I'm so used to watching these talks at 1.5 or 1.75 that 1 speed seems like they are talking very slow.
Thank you. So slow and boring.
1.5 but yes.
Fascinating talk! And what a cool job. Who knew there was such a thing as astrobiology.
Life is more likely to arrived to our planet as encapsulated bacteria and fungal spores than arising on earth. This makes our scientific community uncomfortable because it suggests worlds have to be destroyed for life to spread. Thus our blue green planet is no exception to being destroyed by cosmic disaster such as a direct hit by asteroid...
@@davidhollenshead4892 a very interesting possibility!
@@davidhollenshead4892 interesting, but I'd like to see something authorative that suggests it. Also, if there was evidence to support the idea, why would it make a scientist uncomfortable? Far wilder conclusions have been arrived at over the last century or so.
@@UNaMon Yes! Panspermia is just a romantic notion based on nothing! It saddens me to sometimes hear super intelligent people like Neil De Grass tyson even consider it. I can't understand why! The Earth having the most conditions favorable for the emergence of life( The Goldie locks zone, Eons of favorable geology,a magnetosphere, water, oxygen, all the essential elements etc...) then why would anyone ever consider this totally baseless hypothesis! I would first put Okum's Razor and all the vast amounts of sciences we have accumulated before this fantasy!!! Or maybe the aliens did build the Pyramids?
Melissa H
Yeah... people get paid for spouting any old drivel nowadays so long as there's some cool images on large screens as companion.
Anybody know what research she refers to when talking about chemicals forming simple cellular life ??
There is no research yielding such evidence. Miller's goo was over sixty years ago, and nothing has come close to answering your question.
Aleixo Pinto ~ Always remember: If you repeat something often enough, and widely enough, it becomes true.
2:23 “What remains a missing piece of the puzzle is how life began”
I think there are plenty of other equally significant “missing pieces” of this puzzle and I doubt if they will ever be found.

Fossil fuels always get the full blame for the CO2 "pollution" No-one ever mentions the vast amounts released by the disruption of soil in plowing for agriculture and the amount of burning of land especially in Africa. It's easier to blame SUV's.
The complexity of life is and will always be mysterious event. I’m still waiting for a transitional form. Surely, with all of the evolution that supposedly took place we would find at least be able to find one
And we can't find this painfully slow transitional form ANYWHERE! Evolution is a fraud and cannot be proved.
Got kids?
Go look in a mirror.
You've just spotted a transitional form.
Everything is in transition. Literally any fossil is a transitional form.

Even the most simple single celled organisms contain manufacturing complexes and supercomputers more advanced than any computer man ever built. No supercomputer, no life, period. It is not even reasonable to think it just happened as an unguided process.
That was really good 🙂
Specifically what? 🙈
Did you mean the CO2 global warming part?
Bedtime theory time. Gotta love it.
We were only off by 3 billion years.
Im getting sleepy.
New life can be still created , in hot pools . New organic material can get into the pool from what was created before .
Those kind of videos are so fantastic.. Thank you.

And yes... thankyou thankyou thankyou... always such comments that raise the thumbs so rapidly.. even though they have no real substance.
Thankyou PAB, Thankyou.
At least it went 8 minutes before the WE'RE ALL DOOMED part.
Rad
Well 8 minutes is all we've got.
Her explanation sounds so logik 😂
I think we know the point of her talk: it’s about global warming. It’s subtle fear mongering about global warming disguised as another topic.
(Paraphrased)
“Bacteria 🦠 interacted with its environment, released oxygen, making way for more advanced life. Microscopic life relinquished it’s reign over the planet 🌎. The advanced life(humans) are now interacting with the environment and could result in our demise like the bacteria.”
There a problem with that analogy. What does relinquishing it’s reign mean? Just because microscopic life made way to humans, doesn’t mean they relinquished their reign and died out. Microscopic life is STILL here, woman.
I believe that humans are having an impact on the climate- but the impact is exaggerated.
Both sides cherry picking data and skewing time scales to fit their respective narratives.
The oldest rocks on the planet are Meteors.Because of the plate tectonics the rocks on the surface are constantly getting Turnd under.the moon rocks are older. I don’t know what happens to the crust after it goes under.but I think I would like to someone do a ted talk on that.
Logically speaking it makes no sense for a single celled organism to "evolve" into a more complex organism that's less efficient and requires more food , energy etc.
I live in the Pilbara, this is interesting 😊
@@followthelamb144 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Are you a stromatolite?
The earth is only 5,780 years old. It just looks older to keep scientists busy.
Loved this! You rock!
That's basically the great filter theory that she explained.
The marbling on that steak is second to none....
If we're not supposed to eat animals, how come their made of meat?
why do scientists invent the word organic and drive it from something inorganic while having no clue how life started
We have no precise and clear definition for the word “ organic ” yet ！
@@isupportyou9929 "Organic" is the chemistry of carbon.
@@WestOfEarth : Exactly! Also it has nothing to do with the misnomer of alternative pesticide farming techniques.
Organic Chemistry is the study of Carbon Compounds. Life on this planet is Carbon based.
I find it hard to believe anybody knows what happened a billion years ago.
They dont. Its all wind in sails.
The amount of certainty being presented here as science, is what a ted talk should be about. Oh wait, that was a banned ted talk.
Earth is the only planet in our solar system that has sparked life...we THINK...
She did say as far as we know.
No, that we have evidence to support.
'Rock of ages!'
age of rocks.
Great narrative .. but there’s a lot of dots being join to support a pre-defined position. Where’s the scientific rigour / hypothesis testing?
No scientific riour. No testing. Just talk.
Wow inspiring! Thanks!!!
Too bad its a fairy tale
And I thought this is going to be about music. I‘m stupid.
😂
Life, once evolved to its most complex form, extinguishes itself. < This paraphrases the speaker's key point - a profound suggestion based on scientific observation. It strikes me as more poignant and more valuable than any distraction about aliens or about religion, as among the comments here.
Thank You! I was feeling somewhat like an alien on some far off planet after reading most of these comments.Most of these people shouldn't bother being in this area but rather playing games on their i-phones or watching a rerun of The Apprentice. You are a lovely sign of evolved life. Hats Off!
agreed... 100%...
We are definitely life's most complex form so far, but if we could somehow manage to not extinguish ourselves, perhaps we could give life enough time to evolve to an even more complex form. Or perhaps we have indeed reached a dead end in evolutionary terms, where self extinction is inevitable. Maybe that's why we feel so lonely in this corner of the galaxy.
Just take a look at written human history. Sadly, humans are really good at killing each other. I don't think we have to worry as much about CO2 killing us. As a species we seem pretty bent on self-destruction.
That's actually a possible tenant for the Fermi Paradox, we haven't seen intelligent life because it extinguishes itself
Yes there is a community, and we are connected.
Everything is alive. Life does not end at the other side of a cell's membrane. A city is an organism too. There is no isolated system in the universe. It's systems within systems, overlapping each other.
4:10 "... which researchers have shown can manufacture simple cellular structures that are the first steps toward life." I would LOVE to see that research. Please let me know where I can find it.
no one has formed a cell from chemicals. if anyone has done it, it will be a nobel prize winner. No one has won a nobel prize for making a living cell from chemical. If anyone has formed it, it must be synthetic ones. she or anyone can't show any evidence for manufacturing simple cells out of chemicals..... not until now...
