What Adam Frank actually said

  1. Adam Frank Professor of astrophysics at the University of Rochester
    And what I've come to now is the most important question for physics is, what is life? What the hell is the difference between a rock and a cell, fundamentally? And what I really mean by this, this is where I'm going to go non-traditional, is that really the fundamental question that is agency.
