   Summary: Dust from asteroid Bennu is revealing a surprising origin   
   story for life’s building blocks. New research suggests some amino   
   acids formed in frozen ice exposed to radiation, not warm liquid water   
   as scientists long believed. Isotopic clues show Bennu’s chemistry   
   differs sharply from well-studied meteorites, pointing to multiple   
   pathways for creating life’s ingredients.
