Answer

It is possible that life began on Earth, near deep sea vents perhaps. Other hypotheses include life's beginning deep within clay (clay on Earth of course). Or, life as we know it (carbon based cellular life with an endocellular nucleic acid) possibly began in outer space and travelled to Earth on a comet or meteorite (known as panspermia).

There is an RNA world hypothesis of life's abiogenetic beginning. On Earth, within the oceans, near nutrient-rich waters of deep sea vents, seems a likely place for life to begin. Lipids had to enclose into the shape of a membrane/envelope containing a nutrient rich substance within and also trap a nucleic acid within. Perhaps deep sea vents were an ideal place for life to start, where volcanic nutrients allowed for the uptake of many nutrients in the first evolutionary experiments of cytotic and self-nutritioning life.
