In the constellation of Ophiuchus lying 400 light years away, a young star called IRAS which is a part of a binary(2-star system) and bears a mass similar to that of our sun, sugar molecules have been found in the gas surrounding the star. The sugar molecule known as glycolaldehyde is a vital life ingredient as it can react with a substance called propenal to form ribose a central item of ribonucleic acid(RNA).These molecules were earlier detected in interstellar space but its for the first time they have been spotted so close to a sunlike star.Each of these molecules emit a distictive band of radio wavelength that is used as a fingerprint for the origin of these molecules.Researchers used ALMA( Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array) that has extremely sensitive radio wave receiving device that are capable of capturing extremelyshort wavelength.
