Simulations Disprove Comet Life Origin Theory
3 min read
New computer simulations published Wednesday in Scientific Reports suggest comets could not deliver life's building blocks to Earth. The study, led by Richard Anslow, found 54% of 100,000 simulated impacts failed to deliver intact organic molecules due to high velocities. Researchers propose asteroids or ancient Mars as more likely sources for prebiotic chemistry.
