In the heart of our galaxy, scientists have discovered the largest sulfur-bearing molecule ever detected beyond Earth, with ...

The complex building blocks of life can form spontaneously in space, a new lab experiment shows.

Researchers from the Max Planck Institute for Extraterrestrial Physics in Germany and the Centro de Astrobiología, part of ...

A 13-atom molecule containing sulfur has been discovered in interstellar space for the first time, providing insight into the origins of the chemistry of life.

"We used to think that only very simple molecules could be created in these clouds. But we have shown that this is clearly ...

Scientists report the first confirmed detection of thiepine, a complex sulfur-bearing molecule, in an interstellar cloud near the Milky Way’s center.

“Bit by bit, these tiny building blocks land on rocky planets within a newly formed solar system. If those planets happen to ...

Scientists have shown that the building blocks of proteins can form naturally in deep space. This means the raw ingredients for life may exist long before planets are formed.

Harvard astrophysicist Avi Loeb claims humanity missed a historic chance to find alien life on interstellar object 3I/ATLAS, warning it may have been a spacecraft on a seeding mission.

3I/ATLAS is the third interstellar visitor ever to visit the solar system having been formed around a distant star. Tune in ...
