First interstellar monosaccharide suggests some of life's ingredients may be scattered across the galaxy

Erythrulose, which has four carbon atoms, is the most complex sugar spotted beyond our Solar System.

Astronomers have detected a type of sugar in space that’s also found in raspberries. The sugar, called erythrulose, lurks in interstellar space, or the space between stars.

Erythrulose—a sugar found in raspberries—is also prevalent in a giant molecular cloud close to our galaxy’s core, scientists have discovered

Sugar is the same one found in raspberries and fake tan
