The Mystery of Earth's Water Source
Earth's early formation, believed to be a hot molten planet, raised questions about the origin of its water. Researchers explored theories on water delivery to Earth, considering comets and wandering planets. Lydia Hallis, in her research, discovered primordial water locked deep inside Earth's rocks, potentially existing since the planet's formation. This finding challenges assumptions on Earth's water source and suggests a connection between the Sun's hydrogen radiation and water formation.
