There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu

Stanley Miller, seen here in 1999, is regarded as the father of prebiotic chemistry. His experiments in 1953 showed a possible way that life’s building blocks could have formed on the early Earth. Credit: James A. Sugar.
