| Scientists at the Carnegie Institution have discovered that meteorites can carry primitive, organic particles that originated billions of years ago either in interstellar space, or in the outer reaches of the solar system when it was beginning to coalesce.

The finding provides clues to how organic matter evolved in the solar system. |
