This addition to the inventory of organic compounds produced in extraterrestrial environments furthers the discourse of whether their delivery to the early Earth by comets and meteorites might have aided the molecular evolution that preceded the origins of life. Why would earth which is a great many times the size of the comet and replete with many thermal processes of its own in a element rich environment need the help of this dinky comet?
