- NASA's Curiosity rover discovered an unmatched diversity of organic molecules in the Mary Anning 3 rock during its 2020 mission.
- The sample contained 21 carbon-containing compounds, including nitrogen heterocycles linked to the building blocks of RNA and DNA.
- The discovery site was once abundant with lakes and streams, with clay minerals that effectively preserved these organic materials.
- Comparisons with the 4-billion-year-old Murchison meteorite supported the hypothesis that these molecules originated from the breakdown of more complex substances.
