Carbon-containing meteorites was found to have large organic molecules that make up the building blocks of life and provide strong evidence for their extraterrestrial production.

Carbonaceous chondrites or Carbon-containing meteorites are a rare class of meteorite and are composed of various chemical groups (e.g., CI group, CM group, and CR group) according to their composition and petrography. These meteorites are known to contain a diverse suite of organic compounds including many that are essential in contemporary biology.

Most of the carbonaceous chondrites are thought to come from the low-albedo, C-type asteroids, which are the most among abundant type between 2.7 and 3.4 AU (Bell et al., 1989), CM chondrites may be derived from an altered C-like asteroid called as G-type.
