Oh. I got it backwards then. However, how likely is it? I mean that those particular molecules found on this comet are not related by association to those on our little blue marble?
They were basic organic molecules needed for life, but not as complex as, say, DNA, etc. Here's a listing of what's been detected in space.
List of interstellar and circumstellar molecules

Are those basic molecules in that form not found on Earth?

Sure, and it's likely that some of ours came from space.

I'm okay with that. Just not that any of ours or this comet's came from outside our galaxy or even our solar system. Not only that but it stands to reason imo that just as likely as not is it that the ancient conglomerate comprising our Earth is where any and all of these basic molecules we are able to identify, originate. If observable elsewhere by us, they most probably came from here. It makes no sense to dismiss the obvious. Everything found in our solar system is communal by association. I don't get the surprise at discovering relative matter outside of our atmosphere. It would be surprising not to. There is nothing foreign out there, only confirmation. Which begs the question, 'what's the point?' And I ask with a sense of consternation at the prospect of an ulterior motive. Not by those doing the research, but by those funding it.

That's a long list, indeed.. 🙄They were basic organic molecules needed for life, but not as complex as, say, DNA, etc. Here's a listing of what's been detected in space.

I was never aware that so many molecules could be formed in space... I know most of them though from school...

Yes, and do you know that all elements heavier than Helium (the second lightest element) were made only inside stars? We are literally made of star dust.
Well I'm surprised..
Fireball XL 5...
NASA Kicks Off a Private Space Race Between Boeing and SpaceX | The Planetary Society
Look at the nose of the XL5 rocket..and yes it was detachable..
Fireball XL5 Opening and Closing Theme 1962 - 1963 - Video Dailymotion
😀..they could have Asimo for the robot..

Okay, I only watched Fireball XL5 when there was nothing else on. Those marionettes were just too weird. I'm thinking if there's anything out there worth paying attention to, it's them. They fit the bill. In stark contrast to the new era of cheap oil about to explode. You wouldn't want to keep a Chinese economy of 1.5 billion waiting now, would you? Rest assured they'll have their own research programs up and running by the time they acquire both Boeing and SpaceX. That's if survival on this planet hasn't become the paramount objective by then of course. Oh wait, the objective by then may very well be an arrival through space exploration. Right back on track. But where?
A wormhole ... a black hole ... deep in space of the universe.
* I saw the movie 'Interstellar' last week @ one of my local theaters.
It was an interesting/entertaining ride, but nothing like the real thing, inside a wormhole ....
Merry Christmas to all on Earth, ...Peace.

And Merry Christmas to you, Bob! 
Did you take a video on that 'hole ride? Would be interesting to watch it on YouTube, if you care to upload it ... 😉

Hey Frank! 😎 ... Esgigt! 😎 ...I'm going to eat all the moose I can eat! 



Frank, I did not take a video, but let me check out if they have something online about that wormhole....I'll be back (Arnold - The Terminator).
