    So please give me a quote from the article showing that large amounts arrived and formed during asteroid impacts.

      So which attempt was a large chiral difference applicable to early earth?
      Incoherent. Attempt?!?!!? All the research cited so far described how homochirality evolved during abiogenesis.


      But this is another survey, I'm asking you to pick the best approach you have seen.
      First, IT IS NOT A SURVEY. No one was polled to determine the winner. The two articles cited describe the various research results of how homochirality evolved in the processes during abiogenesis, before the complex RNA/DNA life evolved. Neither you nor I can 'pick the best approach. I referred to what I considered the best reference, and asked you to respond and failed to respond. It is also possible that more than one of the natural processes for the evolution of homochirality was involved with the development of homochirality. They all represent peer reviewed research based on organic chemistry and the environments of the Hadean Eon that can lead to the evolution of homochirality.

        Well, you may wish it did, but the research cited so far describes (unsuccessful) attempts to produce homochirality in early earth conditions.

        The two articles cited describe the various research results of how homochirality evolved in the processes during abiogenesis, before the complex RNA/DNA life evolved.
        So how did homochirality evolve? Let's have it on the table.

            False default in your English and selective citation as unusual. All this refers to is the processes in RNA/DNA life and not the processes in abiogenesis before RNA/DNA life existed. Primitive pre-life forms did not have RNA. RNA did not exist until homochirality formed.

            False please cite specifically where this research states that it is unsuccessful. Please be specific.

            Two articles presented one by you that describe different ways the chemical evolution of homechirality can take place.

              Yet "no homochirality, no life" is a heading in the article, not "no homochirality, no RNA/DNA life."

              Only one approach generated pure homochirality, and that approach wasn't applicable to early earth, as I recall. The article is behind a paywall now, and I can't copy from it.

              No, two articles describing approaches that produced varying levels of chiral difference. Homochirality is still elusive.

                Her reaction worked best with the left-handed l-amino acid proline. Using just 1% excess of the l form, it was possible to produce a product of 100% chiral purity. The process works because the l-amino acid reacts at different rates with the two stereo*isomers of glyceraldehyde. The l-sugar reacts more quickly with the l-amino acid and, on reacting with the oxazole, produces a homochiral three-component product. A similar preference was seen with the right-handed d-amino acid and d-sugar.

                  Her route to making RNA precursor molecules from racemic glyceraldehyde and 2-amino*oxazole still requires a chiral amino acid.

                    This is what I call selective citing to justify your agenda, and not considering the article as a whole, and the other research articles. The different articles give different perspectives and results concerning the evolution of chemical chirality.

                    Not a satisfactory response. Nothing in the research cited considered their work 'unsuccessful.' and the reached different conclusions. In fact one successful method achieved 100% homochirality.

                    Arguing from ignorance' does not go far, because science has usually advanced to address the unknowns claim by the ID apologists. Since scientists never approach the goals of science in absolute terms of achievement. Science could always be 'not there yet.'

                      The article indeed documents the organics produced by the impacts, and this section describes the literal huge amount of asteroid involved over the vast time the span of the Asteroid impact period of the Hadean Eon.

                        So where does it say huge? Huge iron flux, but "not small" amino acid production, though it's difficult to estimate precisely.

                          Starting with chiral amino acids! So this would not be attuned to early earth.

                            I cited the reference, but I do take into consideration your weakness in math to understand the numbers in the reference. 'Huge' is just a word, but it is very descriptive of amount of asteroids and the associated organics described in the article. The article is well documented based on the evidence which your evading, and no need for splitting 'frog hairs'over 'precise amounts.'

                              First, it is taken out of context, and again you are dishonestly selectively citing one phrase, and ignoring the whole article, which I have previously cited. Remember the article also 'some say . . . ' in the article. The conclusion of the whole article is NOT "no homochirality, no life."

                              No basis for this conclusion based on the whole context of the articles cited. The articles specifically demonstrated on how homochirality can form by chemical evolution in abiogenesis.
