摘要: ABSTRACT Astronomical spectra over a wide range of wavelengths is reviewed and compared with predictions from organic modelsof interstellar cometary grains. The data requires the widespread occurrence functional groups involvingH,O,C,N in form complex structures proportions that characterise biomaterial. We argue for widespreadoccurrence microbiological system on galaxy-wide scale. 1.
