Question:
Last night on TV a Disney program about alien life stated that NASA has
found forms of life in meteors. I have never heard anything like this
before.
Replies:
Some simple organic molecules have been found on/in (?) meteorites. I do
not recall if they were amino acids (which are the "basic building blocks of
life") or precursors to amino acids. Either way, that is a long way from
actual life forms.
