Let's list those films and articles we think are, ah, "required reading" ... or should be.
In attaching titles to this thread, please don't just list stuff--this forum has way too many lists to begin with. Instead, either post a link where the item can be accessed or further information obtanied, or write a brief review of your own.
I'm prompted to begin this thread because of the great film I saw last night on PBS TV: Exploring Space: The Quest for Life. The two-hour-long documentary chronicles scientists' search for life on other planets through interviews with astrobiologists and stunning computer animation by acclaimed anime artist Takashi Watabe (AKIRA, GHOST IN THE SHELL). The explanations of various theories for how life originated on Earth were some I'd never heard before. Maybe you can find it on your local PBS TV affiliate.
