Isotopic imprints of late molecular cloud infall in the outer Solar System

Abstract

Anomalous carbonaceous chondrites record late infall of isotopically distinct material to the outer disk and suggest that Bennu- and Ryugu-like bodies formed at the migrating water ice line, revising the history of Earth’s volatile-rich building blocks.
