When this occurs, with trillions upon trillions of atoms and molecules confined
in a given area (the daytime sunlit surface), the entire area undergoes a rise in
dimensionality level. And if the atmosphere and planetary surface, which were
strongly heated by day, experience a sharp temperature decrease at night, the

dimensionality level drops.
Concomitantly, the free matter amassed in the qualitative barrier level plummets

like an avalanche, and an electrical discharge between the atmosphere and planetary
surface ensues. (See Ch. 1, for a more detailed account of these processes and the
conditions necessary for the origin of life).
In sum, the absolute requisites for the origin of life on planets are the following:

 presence of a constant dimensionality gradient;

 water;
 atmosphere;

 periodic succession of day and night;
 atmospheric electrical discharges.
Life is automatically generated on all planets meeting these conditions.
There are billions of such planets in the universe. Our planet Earth is not a unique
creation of nature. Billions of civilizations exist in the universe, giving rise to both
human and other forms of intelligent life.

The humanoid form of intelligent life is the most widespread in the universe.
This is related to the fact that intelligence arises only at certain evolutionary stages of
an ecological system. Each ecological niche has certain requirements as to the species
which occupies it. They are — the size and form of the living organism, the quantity
and quality of the food supply and certain regulations regarding the life process. Only
those organisms conforming to these requirements survive in the course of evolution.

Once an ecological system is complete, new species continue to develop as a
result of their capacity to mutate. The new species, if better adapted to the ecological
niche than the species al-ready in residence, are able to evict the "owners" from their
habitat. Thus, it is only at a certain level of development of the ecological system

that we may speak of the emergence of intelligence.

Additionally, species predisposed to the development of intelligence are able to
occupy one or several — often very close — ecological niches. That is why most
civilizations in the universe are of the humanoid type. (This will be detailed in
subsequent chapters). The origin of life on our planet is a natural process — it would
be foolish indeed to shut our eyes to so obvious a fact.

Earthmen hide their fear that myriad other civilizations exist in the universe by
cloaking it in the illusion of their own uniqueness. Acknowledging the presence of
other life forms and civilizations leaves no room for seeing themselves as "special"
or "God-like" either individually or collectively. Rather, man must accept the
responsibility for what he does to nature or to himself. Invoking uniqueness allows
him to disregard the many crimes and errors of humanity as a whole, as well as those
of separate nations and individuals. Pleading inexperience is just an excuse for all of

this.
