Molecule’s ‘fingerprint’ may help explain formation of life on Earth

The chemical element sulfur is essential for all lifeforms and is a building block of proteins and amino acids. By studying sulfur-based molecules in space, scientists are working to understand the chemical processes that might have led to the formation of life on Earth. The chemical element sulfur is essential for all lifeforms and is a building block of proteins and amino acids.
