That makes sense. I’m just thinking statistically though. All we’ve proven is that some asteroids have R-amino acids. If it’s a 50/50 shot you could easily find a dozen R asteroids because it starts to look really bad for it being a 50/50 split. I guess the reason it makes things more likely is because homochirality happens so aggressively that finding right handed molecules at all drastically reduces the odds of left.
