NASA Discovers Amino Acids On An ‘impossible’ Meteorite

It seems that NASA just keeps nibbling at the edge of telling the public that life on Earth is NOT unique - but simply can't or won't bring itself to do so. Just a BS opinion. --- That said, check out these cool words from the link:

So how did the amino acids end up on a Ureilite, which would have subjected to temperatures hot enough to melt iron, and quickly turn the organic building blocks into carbon? Glavin thinks they were created after the initial impact, even though there would be no water to help form the amino acids.



It suggests that there are other ways that these acids are created, outside of the water-based mechanisms that biologists recognise. "Finding them in this type of meteorite suggests that there is more than one way to make amino acids in space," said Dr Glavin, "which increases the chance for finding life elsewhere in the universe."

Want a good Christmas read? Bowing - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bowing - with words such as:
Bows of apology and thanks



Bows are a required and expected part of any apology or expression of thanks in East Asia, especially Japan, Korea, and Taiwan .
Bows of apology tend to be deeper and last longer than other types of bow. They occur with frequency during the apology, generally at about 45 degrees with the head lowered and lasting for at least the count of three, sometimes longer. The depth, frequency and duration of the bow increases with the sincerity of the apology and the severity of the offense. Bows of thanks follow the same pattern.
Bows of apology are frequently performed at press conferences by high-ranking members of a company that has performed some misdeed, such as producing faulty parts that resulted in a death. These bows are almost invariably performed standing behind a table; the tips of the fingers touch the table while the upper body, held straight, is lowered from the waist until the face is parallel with the tabletop.
