Summary:
Astronomers using ALMA have discovered complex organic molecules, including potential precursors to life's building blocks, in the protoplanetary disc of a young star, V883 Orionis. This finding offers a tantalizing glimpse into how life-friendly chemistry may be far more widespread and inherited than previously thought.
