NASA mission finds key ingredients for life in asteroid samples

The sample analysis detected 14 out of the 20 amino acids used by life on Earth to create proteins, as well as all five nucleobases essential for genetic information storage and transmission. Additionally, scientists found an unexpectedly high concentration of ammonia – approximately 100 times greater than natural levels in Earth's soils.Read Entire Article
