No change detected in ice absorption bands of EC 53 between phases, with ice abundances higher than typical for embedded protostars.
The CH₃OH/CH₃CN ratio in the S68N outflow is constant at ~100-200 and matches gas-phase astrochemical models only when cosmic-ray ionization rates are raised to ~10^{-14} s^{-1}.
SKA will detect emission from heavy molecules and prebiotic species in obscured disk regions to constrain initial chemical conditions for planet formation.
