Chemists Bring Alien Molecule Down to Earth Chemists have recreated an alien molecule in the laboratory by synthesising a stable version of the carbene cyclopropenylidene. Cyclopropenylidene was first detected by radio astronomers in 1985, and is now the most abundant cyclic hydrocarbon observed in interstellar space. |
