Our Solar System was born from a dark and cold cloud made out of gas and small dust particles. Thanks to powerful telescopes, we can now study in detail these clouds, their chemical ingredients, and their evolution toward stars and planets. We can then reconstruct our origins. In this lecture, I’ll present a journey through space and time starting from interstellar clouds and ending in our Solar System. The dawn of organic molecules, the formation of stars and planets, and the first steps towards life will be unveiled.
