Summary:
Who are we? Why are we here? We are stardust,
the result of chemistry occurring throughout vast clouds of interstellar gas and dust.
To better understand how that chemistry could create prebiotic molecules,

traverses through ice particles.
Their findings may also inform medical and environmental applications on our home planet.
All about electrons...
