Earth's Water Didn't Come From Outer Space 181
sciencehabit writes "Where did Earth's oceans come from? Astronomers have long contended that icy comets and asteroids delivered the water for them during an epoch of heavy bombardment that ended about 3.9 billion years ago. But a new study suggests that Earth supplied its own water, leaching it from the rocks that formed the planet. The finding may help explain why life on Earth appeared so early, and it may indicate that other rocky worlds are also awash in vast seas."

Sound like you are flying high in your own personal inner space

Hindu Historians answered water-Planet Lucifer (Score:1, Funny)
Remember, the Book of Genesis originated from India not Hebrews.
Schollars on India have always recited that this planet Earth was not inhabittable until 5k years ago when the water-Planet Lucifer was destroyed and with all the waterand life was delivered onto planet Earth to insulate all the geotherma activity to make it inhabittable.
It was said in a seminar that without this arrival of Water, this planet-Earth that we live on today is less habitable than Mars. Just consider that the Pacific Ocean is a giant circle of Volcanos constantly erupting, while Mars is just a bi-polarly environment ranging between like -100 F and 200 F. Also of note, this planet-Earth was noticably a much smaller planet than before it expanded: the alleged Tectonic-plate Drift is not proof of sliding plates but that this planet was once a small rock where something entered the center to cause it to expand as well as produce an enzyme deep below the Earth's crust responsible for breaking-down mineral to produce a productive insulating layer of Oil that allows the Core to spin easier: this is the primary theory of Middle-Earth that you will constantly find repeated beyond India and in the druidic areas of Europe that disguss how every phenomena point of this planet are actually the prior North & South poles that constantly switch and change. Consider how Bermuda Triangle and South China Sea have the same phenomena of bending Time and Space around aircraft and sea vessels.
That's all I can say about this, but point you to better topic as the magnetic pull of Planet-X causing the increased geothermal activity that Corporations are profitting over by compelling competitive countries into manufacturing disabilities that have nothing to do with CO2 levels.
