Exactly. The interstellar medium, all the dust and gases between celestial bodies, is mostly inorganic, but there are a number of surprising organic compounds as well, like ethyl alcohol. So either the Russians have been producing vodka for the last few billion years and distributing it all over the galaxy or it can be produced in nature with no involvement with life whatsoever...I'm guessing the second option is more likely.
