Meteorites are post-solar, not pre-solar;
Mars meteorite contained DNA container
There is no good evidence that meteorites existed before the formation
of our solar system, although theorists keep on saying they have such
evidence. Meteorites existed after our solar system was formed,
because meteorites contain numerous fossilized cells, tissues (note
1), and molecules. Again, theorists say the molecules are not
biological remains as they existed in “pre-solar” meteorites while the
same molecules are biological in origin if they exist in terrestrial
fossils, no matter how complex or how essencial to DNA they were. In a
word, “no fossil” can be allowed in meteorites. How could there be
life before our solar system was formed?
Inconvenient facts: 1. Most meteorites contain fossils (note 1); 2.
Mars meteorite ALH 84001 contains chromatin fibers which contained DNA
(note 2).

Why new DNA nucleobases found in meteorites can be biological
NASA’s press release (note 1) claims that new nucleobases of DNA found
in meteorites were produced in a completely “non-biological” reaction
in space (note 2). That is wishful thinking, because one cannot rule
out biological production of the new nucleobases.
To re-produce the new neuclobases in the lab, the researchers used
“hydrogen cyanide, ammonia, and water” (note 2), which are common not
only in the space, but also on Earth. All molecules of DNA can be
produced both biologically and non-biologically. Modern life on Earth
did not produce the new nucleobases does not mean that ancient life on
Earth or on Mars did not produce them.
Note 1: NASA’s press release is athttp://www.nasa.gov/topics/solarsystem/features/dna-meteorites.html
Note 2: Quoted paragraph from the above press release:
“Thirdly, the team found these nucleobases -- both the biological and
non-biological ones -- were produced in a completely non-biological
reaction. "In the lab, an identical suite of nucleobases and
nucleobase analogs were generated in non-biological chemical reactions
containing hydrogen cyanide, ammonia, and water. This provides a
plausible mechanism for their synthesis in the asteroid parent bodies,
and supports the notion that they are extraterrestrial," says
Callahan.”
Edited:
That is wishful thinking, because
1. Earth does not produce them non-biologically.
2. they could be biologically produced by ancient life on Earth or on
Mars.
