Lunar ping.
Climate Change!
The moon makes sense. Mars is a mirage.
So, then, where did all of these asteriods and comets of ice/water come from?
Chondrite asteroids, particularly carbonatous chondrites commonly contain a lot of water. In general, they are pretty much the same in composition as the dust and other particles out of which the solar system was formed. So, I guess it would not be surprising if the moon picked a fair amount of water during the asteroid bombardment phase of the moon’s formation.
If it seems the heat would drive all the water off, you can remember that many minerals and even the mantle region of the earth has large amounts of water and, it is likely a lot of our oceans came froze these same asteroids and from volcanos which still release lots of water.
It’s fascinating to watch the increasingly far-fetched suppositions raised to support failed planetary formation theory.
(said Dr Jessica Barnes from the Open University in the UK, first author of the new paper in Nature Communications.)
"A newer study at Free Republic concludes Dr Jessica Barnes from the Open University based her so-called 'study' based on wishful thinking and the theory of sticky spaghetti tossed against a wall."
That reminds me. Time for my enema.
One of the (only two) components of water is Hydrogen.
Hydrogen is the most abundant element in the Universe, as far as we can tell.
1 + 1 = ?

Got a video?
Must be grant renewal time. Gotta show some “results”. Even if they have to pull them out of their heinies.
