Scientific paper

WE show here that the physical conditions in prestellar molecular clouds favour the condensation of complex organic polymers, including amino acids, within a matrix of smaller refractory particles. Such composite grain clumps with dimensions exceeding 1 µm could be expelled along with gaseous material in protostellar cocoons, causing the widespread dispersal of biological activity in the Galaxy. We argue that grain clumps of the type considered here may be identified with μm-sized inclusions in carbonaceous chondrites.
