“This type of meteorite (e.g Murchison, which landed outside Melbourne in 1969, having come from Asteroid Belt) has been found to have 'liquid' on/in it, and also amino acids (body uses these to make proteins), lipids (fat), monomers (to make larger sugar molecules).
Its special, then, as it probably helped primitive life on earth, as new cells could "cannibalise" them for parts. My sample is very well packed, in a small plastic box, with the usual descriptive text label. Privilege to own.”
