'Life chemicals' may have formed around far-flung star

BBC News - 'Life chemicals' may have formed around far-flung star: "There is now even more evidence that life on Earth may have been seeded by material from asteroids or comets.

Prior research has shown how amino acids - the building blocks of life - could form elsewhere in the cosmos.

These molecules can form in two versions, but life on Earth exclusively uses just one of them."
