"We used to think that only very simple molecules could be created in these clouds. But we have shown that this is clearly ...
The complex building blocks of life can form spontaneously in space, a new lab experiment shows. The complex precursors to ...
Scientists have shown that the building blocks of proteins can form naturally in deep space. This means the raw ingredients ...
The chemical foundations of life could be found in the frigid pockets of molecular clouds that exist in the space between ...
“Bit by bit, these tiny building blocks land on rocky planets within a newly formed solar system. If those planets happen to ...
New research suggests that essential components of life may assemble in interstellar space long before planets or oceans ...
The flowing of molten rocks through small cracks in the heart of volcanoes may have been a perfect environment to forge the building blocks of life on Earth. These chemicals—called biopolymers—are an ...
