For questions 81 - 98, choose: the answer (A, B, € or D) which you think fits best according te the text. Mark your answers on the separate answer sheet. Space dust ‘A Norwegian musician who looks for micrometedrites — thy rocks from outer space Every day, millons of tiny rocks from space, no bigger than specks of dust, reach our planet, Known as micrometeorites, they are Billions of years old, and were once part of the oldest rocks in our solar system. Accordingtoexperts, about 12 micrometeorites now land on every square metre of our planet every year. Ths might not sound much, but in total it comes to 100 tonnes a day. 12 tonnes of that mass consists of water molecules. Furthermore, the ‘micrometeorites also contain complex organic molecules of the sort required, for Instance, for DNA. So this abundant rain of particles contains, as well as water, the stuff of life Itsel. However, every day, other tiny particles also land, but they're not from outer space: things like dust from construction, exhaust fumes and sand, These terrestrial particles outnumber the micrometeorites by'a billion to one. So when Jon Larsen, a Norwegian jazz musician, became fascinated by micrometeorites and began looking for them, he thought he would probably be unsuccessful. The experts he contacted were certain he would be. Until then, the only micrometeorites ever identified hhad ‘been found in the Antaretie. Since falling to Earth billions of years ago, these hhad mostly been locked into rock and ice. Scientists knew how important iis to study micrometeorites, and were tantalised by the prospect that they might contain hints as to how life started on Earth. Yet no one had lever found recently arrived examples n fact, so extremely unlikely was it, that they hadn't even tried What intrigued Larsen was that, if imicrometeorites were regularly falling to Earth in such numbers, where were they? ‘It Was a very obvious contradiction, he says, "Most scientists agreed that they’ might be everywhere, but it simply wasn't possible to 4 find them. 1 had to try: He turned to Matthew Genge, a senior lecturer at Imperial College London. For years we'dseenamateurs posting online about collecting micrometeorites,” says Genge. ‘When they contact us we tell them It's net possible. That's what he told Larsen. ‘Bur he was persistent and. kept emailing me photos of possible particles, Larsen, to be fal, was far from starry-eyed. He had a humbe, but also In some ways grand, Vision for his project. His idea was to make a start, and perhaps devise a system that would eventually be perfected His technique was actually to look not for ‘micrometeorites, but for the things that weren't, and like a detective, eliminate them from his enquiries, Finally, after six years, he found something he coulda’t classy: it was ‘smooth, dark, shiny, eggshaped, and almost translucent. Larsen showed it to Genge. He Tooked at it and sad, "Yes, that's it.” Genge’s isa rarefied discipline. “With micrometeostes "you can start making predictions about the universe,’ says Genge They're not unique to our solar system and if they fall elsewhere, then theyl also be earrying water and complex organic molecules there. And i that's the case, the implications are very ‘exciting. You can say that planets that have these bombardmerts are more likely to have life” Sclentists couldn't investigate this, however, ‘until they had Larsen’s examples to study. Finally, Larsen showed me a micrometeorite. There under the microscope, It looked so lnexpected, so odd ~ surely something lke that would quickly eatch the searcher’ eye.
