James Webb Space Telescope spies earliest complex organic molecules in the universe

1. Makes me think about that old line on SETI - Don't Look Home!

SETI - Search for Extraterrestial Intelligence. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Search_for_extraterrestrial_intelligence)

When they first started this experiment many of us thought it rather weird that we'd be looking for "intelligence" away from earth when we couldn't find it here.

I guess our little planet will show plenty of complex organic molecules when put under the microscope. Depending on when the sample is taken, it could be as the first molecules and very primordial organisms were being developed; it could be during one of the many cycles of growth and destruction; or it might be after we've reduced everything to inanimate.
