Astronomers Discover New Molecules

Two new tiny molecules have been discovered in an interstellar cloud of gas and dust at the center of our galaxy. The two molecules are made up of only 8 and 10 atoms each and are 26,000 light years from Earth. How is it possible for astronomers to detect something so small and so far away? Nobody knows, but the scientists have named the miniscule molecules "we-made-this-up-ium" and "haha-thats-a-good-one-ium."
