Quiet Black Hole Regions May Be Cradles of Life
About this Episode
New astronomical research suggests that the center of the Milky Way and distant compact galaxies known as “little red dots” may share a surprisingly calm radiation environment.
Despite hosting massive black holes, these regions can remain quiet enough for fragile organic molecules to survive.
Scientists propose that such cosmic conditions may support prebiotic chemistry, allowing the building blocks of life to form far earlier in the universe than once believed—potentially spreading the ingredients for biology across the cosmos.
