The origin of something (from the Latin origo, "beginning") is where it came from, in the sense of a physical location or a metaphysical source.
Manifold: Origin is a science fiction book by Stephen Baxter.

 Appellation of origin - encyclopedia article about Appellation of origin.
The system used in France from the early part of the twentieth century is known as the appellation d'origine contrôlée (AOC).
This applies even where the public is not being misled, where there is no unfair competition and where the true origin of the good is indicated or the geographical indication is accompanied by expressions such as "kind", "type", "style", "imitation" or the like.
This includes prevention of use of a geographical name which although literally true "falsely represents" that the product comes from somewhere else.

 Origin of Life on Earth by Leslie E. Orgel
For the next two centuries, those ideas were subjected to increasingly severe criticism, and in the mid-19th century two important scientific advances set the stage for modern discussions of the origin of life.
During the first half a billion years of the earth's history, bombardment by meteorites and comets must have been intense, although the extent to which organic material could have survived such impacts is debatable.
Before the mid-17th century, most people believed that God had created humankind and other higher organisms and that insects, frogs and other small creatures could arise spontaneously in mud or decaying matter.

 PSR Discoveries:Hot Idea: Origin of the Earth and Moon
Origin of the Earth and Moon,1998, LPI Contribution No. 957, Lunar and Planetary Institute, Houston.
This idea suggests that the Moon formed as the result of a colossal impact onto the accumulating Earth, heating it and flinging the raw ingredients for the Moon into orbit around the Earth.

 The Origin of the Moon
A collection of papers from that meeting was published by the Lunar and Planetary Institute (Houston) in the 1986 book, Origin of the Moon, edited by PSI scientist William Hartmann, together with Geoffry Taylor and Roger Phillips.
Studies of lunar rocks show that the moon originally had a molten surface.
If a theory about lunar origin calls for an evolutionary process, it has a hard time explaining why other planets do not have similar moons.

Obviously, that esteemed gentleman's works are more highly recommended for the philosophical exercises attempted here, while there are many other places to get more details on the cosmological and astrophysical concepts covered.
It gets to tell us about dark energy and the discovery that the universe is exanding, and a few more of the planets discovered around other stars.
Carl Sagan's books "Cosmos" and "Billions and Billions" are good supplements to this book, written at a similar level, approachable by non-scientists.

 Murphy Laws Site - Origin
It also removes the ability to say "I coined this phrase!" because sod's law has been around long before any living man and has existed in many forms for hundreds of years.
But this original name is dying out because sod over here is a cursory so is not used much.
While I admit that the name of Murphy's laws is a pleasant one as is the story of how it came to light, but the original name for 'if anything can go wrong it will' was sod's law because it would happen to any poor sod who needed such a catastrophic event the least.

 Origin Systems - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The company was founded in 1983 by brothers Robert and Richard Garriott ("Lord British"), their father Owen and Chuck "Chuckles" Bueche after Richard had terminated his contract with Sierra On-Line to publish the third part in Richard's Ultima series, Exodus: Ultima III.
Origin's motto was "We create worlds", and its games were known for their well-realized (if not always creative) plots and the amount of detail furnished into the game's stories.
After this title, Electronic Arts decided that Origin would become an online-only company after the completion of Ultima IX in 1999.

 Origin - Creatures Wiki
However, Origin was meant to be far more than this; it could be likened to a 3D Creatures in which the world and everything in it was considered a living object.
Ultimately, Origin was not a solution to any problem, but a very general framework on which it might have been possible to construct such solutions, a victim of the second-system effect.
Such a system had obvious potential for simulation purposes (and more games in the Creatures series, although not all at Cyberlife were keen on gaming).

 Origin of the term "spam" to mean net abuse
Here we see a thread where MUDders discuss the meaning and origin of the word Spam in 1990.
For example, a bit of research seems to show that the term "net-surfing" originated with Brendan Kehoe, also known as the author of "Zen and the art of the Internet," an early internet book.
Several of the early users of forms of the term claim they did so due to a love of real water surfing, so this appears to be a metaphor of many parents.
