The ultraviolet light involved in the origin of life

Ультрафиолет причастен к зарождению жизниScientists working in the European space Agency, found that ultraviolet radiation was the main factor of the origin of life.

The carbon atoms connected with hydrogen, oxygen and other elements is the source material of any organism. Previously, scientists believed that the atoms generate the greatest importance turbulence.

According to this theory, the formation of basic hydrocarbons takes place in areas of great turbulence. It is caused by a supernova explosion or emission of substances by the young stars. Researchers in the mid-twentieth century found molecules of hydrogen and positively charged ions of hydrocarbons.

In interstellar space it was two of the three first found molecules. When compared with the Sun, they are larger and emit a greater amount of infrared light. A molecule absorbing a photon of light, receives energy, which is needed in order to react with other molecules.
