I beg to differ. Isn't it nugatt (whatever the heck that is) at the center of a Milky Way?
But if this story is true, does this mean the universe is anti-Atkins?

Astronomers have found a cloud of frozen sugar near the centre of our galaxy

Now if we just had 53 billion barrels of tea!

Glycolaldehyde consists of two carbon atoms, two oxygen atoms and four hydrogen atoms.

mmmmmmmmm...carbon....of organic compounds( Merriam-Webster Online Dictionary) .
I thought that carbon was organic. Is this sugar cloud the remains of organic life?

"This fact suggests a universal prebiotic chemistry."

This is quite a stretch, imo. "universal" is a pretty powerful and focused word.

Gee... what does this mean?
Maybe the whole galaxy is just some momentary part of a cotton candy machine in some mega civilization?

Molecules of a simple sugar, glycolaldehyde, were detected in a cloud of gas and dust called Sagittarius B2 about 26,000 light years away.

And they've found interstellar ethanol, too, thus indicating the spiritual nature of the universe.

The discovery adds to the growing evidence that the foundations of life can be traced to chemical reactions within interstellar clouds.

We are stardust
We are golden
And we´ve got to get ourselves
Back to the garden
