'It might be life, Jim...', physicists discover inorganic dust with lifelike qualities

Intriguing new evidence of lifelike structures that form from inorganic substances in space are revealed today in the New Journal of Physics. The findings hint at the possibility that life beyond earth may not necessarily use carbon-based molecules as its building blocks. They also point to a possible new explanation for the origin of life on earth.
