This essay examines gamma radiation as a fundamental energetic driver in early evolution. It proposes that high‑energy photons acted both as a selective pressure and as a catalytic impulse for the formation of the first stable water–salt–crystal systems, enabling electron flows that later became cellular metabolism. The text reframes gamma radiation not as a destructive force but as a primordial structuring principle, linking cosmology, biophysics, and ontological modeling. It concludes with a reflection on human responsibility: what once served as an evolutionary alpha must not become an anthropogenic omega.
