In the heart of our galaxy, scientists have
discovered the largest sulfur-bearing molecule
ever detected beyond Earth, with significant
implications for the study of the cosmic origins
of life.

The chemical is known as thiepine, or
2,5-cyclohexadiene-1-thione (CreaHreaS), a
ring-shaped sulfur-bearing hydrocarbon produced
in biochemical reactions.

When examining the molecular cloud G+0.693rCo0.027,
a star-forming region about 27,000 light-years
from Earth near the center of the Milky Way,
astronomers from the Max Planck Institute for
Extraterrestrial Physics (MPE) and the CSIC-INTA
Centro de Astrobiolog|!a (CAB) detected this
complex molecule in space for the first time.
