“How can disequilibrium, order, and in particular free energy supplies that enable life to maintain its organization emerge form an apparent chaotic early universe in thermal and chemical equilibrium.”
| Frautschi's entropy gap model: a "schematic dependence of entropy S and maximum (equilibrium) energy Smax in the expanding universe" (1988); such that the gap between to the two line, Smax - S, represent the room for order in the universe, and that this is how life emerged in the context of the second law.
