A new window in the hunt for molecular signatures in deep space - with extended interview

From SpaceTime with Stuart Gary S20E62 featuring an extended interview.Astronomers have begun using one of the precursor radio telescopes for the Square Kilometre Array project to study molecular signatures which could lead to the detection of complex molecules that are precursors to life. The team are using the Murchison Widefield Array to undertake the observations focusing on the molecular gas and dust clouds from which new generations of stars are born.
