If there is locomotion due to a dynamic between handed molecules and, say, helically polarized fields; is such handedness a survival selector for life in deep space?

Though, a new and plausible terrestrial origin of life hypothesis: Methane + Gamma radiation => Guanine && Earth thunderstorms => Gamma Radiation https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=42131762#42157208 : > A terrestrial life origin hypothesis: gamma radiation mutated methane (CH4) into Glycine (the G in ACGT) and then DNA and RNA. |
