I'm reading Rifters cycle by Peter Watts (of Blindsight fame) , and this article scratches my fear and excitement itch in all the right places
The article does not touch upon this, but there is a fascinating theory that life on earth originated in deep sea vents. Highly recommend reading the very accessible "The Vital Question" by Nick Lane for more on this.
