Over a year ago, I posted a hypothesize of mine on BBS that
"sugars" [being one of the more simple, basic organic molecules] should be found
in comets, in the icy surfaces of jovian moons and asteroids.
Afterall! Take one chemical formula for a type of sugar. An example: C6H12O6.
That chem formula is basically a combination of carbon[C] and water
[H20].
There's plenty of carbon out in space,
in molecular substances, or in a relatively 'pure' form
[CH4, CN, C++, etc...].

And H20?...The cosmos is not lacking in that substance.
So all is needed is energy to combine
the two: Celestial impact energy? Cosmic rays? UV light? Heat? etc...

Now comes a report, that a carbonaceous condrite meteorite has
been analyzed, and found to contain a "variety of different sugars".
