English version

Researchers work hard and look for new things in the sky. They have now found a very big surprise. They have found sugar in the sky for the first time. This is completely new and very important.

This sugar has a difficult name. It is called erythrulose. This sugar also exists here on Earth. It is in raspberries, for example. Raspberries are a small, red fruit. This fruit tastes very sweet.

The researchers found the sugar far away. It is in interstellar space. That is the space between the stars. There are very large clouds there. These clouds are called molecular clouds. The sugar is exactly in such a cloud.

This find is very important for all of us. It helps us with a very big question. The find might explain the beginning of life. People have wanted to understand this for a long time.
