Organic molecules. Still neat.<p>> Hundreds of square miles of area around this crater are covered with a layer of organic chemicals, also called aliphatics. Researchers suggest that the chemicals must have formed only in the past few million years or so. This is because aliphatic compounds cannot sustain the constant bombardment of radiation in deep space for a long time.<p>> This has led them to conclude that these organic molecules formed in Ceres’s underground ocean within the last 10 million years or so.
