The complex building blocks of life can form spontaneously in space, a new lab experiment shows.
The chemical foundations of life could be found in the frigid pockets of molecular clouds that exist in the space between stars, rather than on any planetary bodies. At the University of Aarhus in ...
New research suggests that essential components of life may assemble in interstellar space long before planets or oceans ...
