Stanley Miller in 1999, posed with an apparatus like that used in the original experiment. At the time of the Miller–Urey experiment, Harold Urey was a Professor of Chemistry at the University of Chicago who had a well-renowned career, including receiving the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1934 for his isolation of deuterium [21] and leading ...
The Miller–Urey experiment used a highly reducing mixture of gases—methane, ammonia, and hydrogen, as well as water vapor—to form simple organic monomers such as amino acids. [37] The mixture of gases was cycled through an apparatus that delivered electrical sparks to the mixture.
1953 – Stanley L. Miller & Harold C. Urey: Miller–Urey experiment demonstrates that organic compounds can arise spontaneously from inorganic ones. 1955 – Clyde L. Cowan and Frederick Reines confirm the existence of the neutrino in the neutrino experiment. 1958 – Meselson–Stahl experiment proves that DNA replication is semiconservative.
English: Miller-Urey experiment - Work by the C3BC consortium. Other languages Čeština: Millerův–Ureyův experiment , jež se snažil navodit podmínky, které panovaly na Zemi zhruba před 3,5 miliardami let, a zkoumat možnost vzniku života chemickými procesy - práce C3BC konsorcia.
This experiment resulted in the formation of a number of amino acids and other biomolecule precursors after several days. [ 4 ] It is noteworthy that in determining an energy source for the experiment, Miller and Urey acknowledged that ultraviolet light was probably the most promising candidate in terms of its availability at the time of the ...

Urey, along with his student Stanley Miller, may be best remembered for the renowned Miller-Urey experiment, which shows that a mixture of ammonia, methane and hydrogen, when exposed to ultraviolet radiation and water, can interact to form amino acids, the "building blocks" of terrestrial life.
The hypothesis gained some empirical support in 1953 with the classic Miller–Urey experiment. Since then, the primordial soup theory (Oparin–Haldane hypothesis) has become the foundation in the study of abiogenesis. [88] [89] [90]
