Did comets really start life on Earth? New study challenges long-held theory
Researchers from the University of Cambridge conducted computer simulations to examine the role of comets in life's origins.

Only a small percentage of simulations indicated successful delivery of these compounds by comets. Additionally, most impacts during early Earth history could not deliver…
