Scientists ran 100,000 comet simulations to reach Earth. The results are a surprise. Where did we come from? The answer, many scientists propose, is in space. An ancient theory, already over a century old, says that life on Earth arose from fragments of prebiotic chemistry coming from the unknown cosmic, perhaps brought by distant comets. It is the so-called Panspermia Theory. The idea is supported by an ever-increasing body of evidence. Scienti…
According to a recent study, the chances that comets brought the ingredients necessary for life to Earth are almost negligible.
100,000 simulations of comets striking Earth suggest the ingredients of life were not extraterrestrial
Science Alert reports: Where did we come from? The answer, many scientists have proposed, is space. One longstanding theory, hypothesized for over a century, is that life on Earth emerged from fragments of prebiotic chemistry that arrived from the cosmic unknowns, possibly delivered by far-flung comets. The idea is supported by a growing body of evidence, with scientists detecting signs of organic molecules in comets soaring through space, which…
