Challenging long-held assumptions, Aarhus University
researchers have demonstrated that the protein
building blocks essential for life as we know it can
form readily in space. This discovery, appearing in
Nature Astronomy, significantly raises the
statistical probability of finding extraterrestrial
life.
In a modern laboratory at Aarhus University and at
an international European facility in Hungary
(HUN-REN Atomki), researchers Sergio Ioppolo and
Alfred Thomas Hopkinson conduct pioneering
experiments. Within a small chamber, the two
scientists have mimicked the environment found in
giant dust clouds thousands of light-years away.
This is no easy feat.

So pre-life knowledge advances.
