Meteorite could reveal clues to life origin
A bus sized meteorite shattered over Tagish Lake in British Columbia last January, delivering pristine primordial material to scientists. About two pounds were recovered initially and 410 more fragments found later, containing organic molecules that may illuminate the origin of life on Earth and possibly an extraterrestrial origin. The rock likely traveled from the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter before entering Earth’s orbit.
