This includes organic molecules, which, for the purpose of this review, we define as compounds with C\u2013H and\/or C\u2013C bonds. In this review, we discuss the history and recent breakthroughs of the study of organic matter in comets, from simple organic molecules and photodissociation fragments to large macromolecular structures. We summarize results both from Earth-based studies as well as spacecraft missions to comets, highlighted by the Rosetta mission, which orbited comet 67P\/Churyumov\u2013Gerasimenko for two years, providing unprecedented insights into the nature of comets. We conclude with future prospects for the study of organic matter in comets. &#8220;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Adam J. McKay and Nathan X.
