Linnartz: "We now have a consistent image of how water is formed in space, namely through so-called hydrogenation reactions of ice on small particles. 'This process takes place everywhere in our galaxy, as well as outside it, in other galaxies.' So water is everywhere: this is an important conclusion. Limmartz continues: 'Recent re in Leiden has shown that other, more complex molecules can also be formed in interstellar ice.
