The origins of life's preference for left-handed amino acids, a defining trait of life on Earth, remain unresolved following new NASA-supported research. The study found that RNA, a critical molecule in early life theories, can drive protein building blocks toward either left- or right-handed configurations, adding complexity to the mystery of why life exclusively uses one orientation. The findi
