The earth was born dry

A new study comes to provide new clues to solve the mystery of the presence of water on Earth. Life, at least as we know it, is closely related to the existence of water in liquid form. The scientific community has been trying for decades to find clues to reveal the origin of Earth’s water without, however, being able to find solid evidence of how it came to be on our planet.

The prevailing theory states that water arrived on Earth along with countless space rocks (asteroids, comets, etc.) that bombarded our planet shortly after its birth. There are also scientists who consider Earth’s water to be a product of internal geological processes. Recently, a research group led by scientists from the University of Copenhagen formulated a new theory according to which the Earth, during its formation, literally began absorbing the water contained in its cosmic environment. So the water didn’t get here on the asteroids and wasn’t formed inside our planet.

Scientists from the California Institute of Technology, the famous California Institute of Technology, have conducted a new study according to which the Earth was born dry. The researchers argue that our planet did not have a trace of water in its infancy and that water appeared later, but the results of the study do not indicate whether the water ultimately came from internal geological processes or is it … space. project. However, if the new study is confirmed and the Earth was born without water, then of course the scenario of its arrival from space will be further strengthened.
