Researchers using the James Webb Space Telescope have detected complex organic molecules outside our galaxy, specifically in the ice surrounding a young star named ST6 in the Large Magellanic Cloud. This discovery, which includes compounds like alcohols and acetic acid, suggests that the building blocks of life can form in extreme interstellar environments. The findings are significant as they provide insights into how complex organic chemistry can occur in galaxies with fewer heavy elements, similar to those in the early universe.
