#Rare molecule found in space hints at life s origins The discovery of an unusual carbon-based molecule near the galactic center of the Milky way suggests that the complex molecules needed for life may have their origins in interstellar space.
This detection opens a new frontier in the complexity of molecules that can be formed in interstellar space
The discovery should help us better understand how our star interacts with the Milky way including how harmful cosmic rays from interstellar space manage to sneak through the solar system's magnetic barrier.
and interact with gases in the interstellar medium creating mini versions of these enigmatic astrophysical phenomena in the lab for the first time.
--and that it came from interstellar space.##That s certainly something to ponder the next time you drink a glass of water.#
#If water in the early Solar system was inherited primarily as ice from interstellar space then it is likely that similar ices
#The researchers concluded that a significant portion of Earth s water came from interstellar space by looking at the relative abundance of hydrogen and deuterium.#
#In interstellar space for example water ice contains lots of deuterium thanks to the freezing cold temperatures and ionizing radiation.
Because of that the researchers estimate that anywhere between 7 and 50 percent of Earth s water had to have come from the interstellar medium in
And since other solar systems would have formed in the same interstellar medium the findings suggest that the origins of water On earth were not unique
They are essential to the chemistry that takes place in the interstellar medium by providing gas molecules with a surface on
and control much of the energy balance in the interstellar medium. Not least, in the early stages of a star evolution the dust can coagulate into large clumps the first step towards forming planets.
and dust in interstellar space collapses gravitationally, accumulating mass. A disk of orbiting material forms around the young star,
and even to interstellar space. e
#The HEADPHONES that detect brain damage: Pioneering device tracks changes in pressure caused by injury and infection Doctors have developed a brain pressure test using a special set of headphones that can detect life-threatening head injuries and infections.
