Reacción a "Reactions to the discovery of an RNA component on the asteroid Ryugu"

This is an exciting discovery since it reveals that uracil, one of the nucleobases of RNA, can be synthesized in space. This implies that significant amounts of uracil could have become available on primitive Earth through the impact of meteorites during the Late Heavy Bombardment period between 4100 and 3800 million years ago, triggering the first biochemical processes that led to the origin of life.
