Hubble Finds First Organic Molecule on an Exoplanet

It's somehow appropriate that this should happen today. However, don't get too excited like I did--they didn't actually find life, but an "organic molecule" that is very common in other planets of our own solar system. It's just the first time that one of these molecules has been found in another solar system.
