HOUSTON - UA students in Houston for an elite NASA program chose to perform an experiment this week that's been done countless times - but never in zero gravity.

the Miller-Urey experiment, which used a laboratory device that replicated the early Earth to create lightning-like discharges and synthesize the amino acids that gave rise to life. A new study ...

The nanoreactor was used in the simulation of two different systems: a homogenous collection of acetylene molecules, and a mixture similar to the original Miller–Urey experiment, which included ...

This exercise is designed to simulate the Miller-Urey experiment.

How animate life was formed from inanimate matter has always been a mystery, but scientists are closer to finding what may have been the catalyst.

The Miller-Urey experiment, as it is now known, supported the scientific theory of abiogenesis: that life could emerge from nonliving molecules.

American chemist Stanley Miller, using original laboratory equipment, recreates the Miller-Urey experiment, which supported the scientific theory that life could emerge from nonliving molecules.

The new research from Stanford University builds on the famous Miller-Urey experiment of 1952, which showed that lightning-like electrical sparks could transform simple gases into amino acids, the ...
