...by one of us hypothesizing on the possibility that one of the icy jovian moons,
hammered by carbonaceous asteroids or carbon-rich comets
in the past would have generated localized, micro-second high-energy chemical reactions, creating deeply-buried sugar molecules by the ton...or hundreds of tons, in the impact area.
No one disputed the possibility of such impact chemistry
taking place, then, so I'm not surprised by this latest discovery.

Cheerio, Tom.
