A group of researchers have a new theory about what the source of water on our planet might be.
The source of the waters of the world has been investigated by scientists for years. However, the studies carried out so far on this subject have been pointed to different points towards the source. So we don’t have a single definitive answer to what the source of water on our planet is.
One of the most critical answers given is Most of the water consists of water carried by comets and interstellar space. information. What enables us to reach this information is that some of the waters on Earth are ‘older than the Sun’. This naturally indicates that some of the water must have come from outside our Solar System.
But a new study indicates that the source may not be comets;
A group of researchers from the University of Copenhagen are trying to better understand the formation process of our planet. By analyzing the isotopic composition of more than 60 different meteorites and planetsThey established genetic relationships between rocky planets such as Earth and Mars and other celestial bodies. The scenario created with the obtained results is that the Earth is more than predicted. could have occurred much faster. showed.
According to this, when the Sun was still a young star and there was a disk around it in which the planets grew, the Earth was growing by absorbing all the dust inside the disk. During this growth, icy particles were also ‘absorbed’ by Earth and water became part of the planet.

The results of this research are effective in the formation of planets and the detection of planets with water. will provide important data is being considered. It is stated that the fact that the source of the water is a situation that has existed since the formation instead of a comet passing by by chance would be a much more consistent data. However, the subject requires further research.
