Scientists studying samples that #NASA collected from #asteroid #Bennu found a wide assortment of organic molecules that shed light on how life arose. The chemistry that produced them might be going on today on the ice moons of #Jupiter and #Saturn.
“Our odds of finding life elsewhere are increasing,” said Daniel Glavin, a senior scientist for sample return at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center

Based on modeling estimates, scientists believe the asteroid Bennu has a 1-in-2700 chance of colliding with Earth. Seems like a safe bet that we’re going to be OK. But what if the space rock did strike our planet? @sciencefocus goes there:

Bausteine des Lebens auf Asteroid Bennu entdeckt
Der Asteroid Bennu ist eine Zeitkapsel aus der Entstehungszeit unseres Sonnensystems. Nun belegen Gesteinsproben von Bennu, dass die Grundbausteine für Leben im frühen Sonnensystem weit verbreitet waren. Von Uwe Gradwohl.
101955 Bennu (provisional designation 1999 RQ36) is a carbonaceous asteroid in the Apollo group discovered by the LINEAR Project on 11 September 1999.
It is named after #Bennu, the ancient Egyptian mythological bird associated with the Sun, creation, and rebirth.

Scientific EuropeanVolltreffer für die #Forschung.
Die #NASA hat in den Bodenproben, die die Sonde #Osiris_rex vom #Asteroiden #Bennu
mitgebracht hat, 14 Aminosäuren und alle fünf Basen der #DNS bzw. #DNA und #RNA gefunden.
Das ist ein starker Hinweis, dass #Leben auf anderen Himmelskörpern irgendwann möglich gewesen sein kann.
Es wird spannend im #Weltall.

@Lazarou@mastodon.socialSalty brines on asteroids containing the building blocks of life, both Left (Earth dominant) and Right (not Earth dominant) handed amino acids have been found in Bennu's samples.
These brines are found on dwarf planets (Ceres) icy moons (Enceladus) and tiny asteroids like Bennu. It's everywhere....and could Life be everywhere it finds a way to make a living?
