Simple water molecules floating in air "spontaneously" organize themselves into snowflakes, each of which is different (in isotopic content.)

So they do, indeed. I find this clay research to be very interesting. The earlier finding that clays can cause lipids to form hollow spheres is also very interesting.

I also find it fascinating that it took only six weeks for the seeded methanol to alter into more complex organic compounds.

This is an area of research that is producing some results. I'm sure it will continue to do so.
