Discover our incredible alien origins ...

The team, led by scientist Yasuhiro Oba (Institute of Low Temperature Science - Hokkaido University, Japan) simulated the beginning of the universe to answer the question "where are we from" and received Get the unexpected answer.

Earlier, scientists have discovered a number of basic organic molecules, essential for life, hidden inside comets and asteroids. Comets and asteroids have also been shown by several previous studies to be the "train of life," sprouting onto Earth and other planets.

The device helps scientists recreate primitive building blocks of life, thereby learning about the true origin of all species in the universe - (photo courtesy of the team).

However, what has spawned on "comet trains", "asteroid ships" is still a mystery. In this new study, astronomical models based on countless direct and indirect data finally point to the presence of giant and peculiar molecular clouds , as if suspended between star. That is the "ancestral land father " of all species in the universe, our true origin!

To conduct the experiment, the researchers used an extremely high vacuum reaction chamber to simulate the environment inside those ancient giant gas clouds. A gas mixture of water, carbon monoxide, ammonia and mehtanol is constantly being sprinkled on a material that simulates cosmic dust in gas clouds. All are cooled to -263 degrees Celsius, then use specialized lights to trigger chemical reactions.

After that, the following reaction is warmed and analyzed. They were surprised to discover the birth of nucleobases - the building blocks of primordial life to make DNA and RNA , in addition to other interesting materials like amino acids that will make proteins. That is the first step leading to the formation of molecular precursors of life.

In other words, the study rewrites the first stage of chemical evolution in space.
