Default Comet Provides New Clues to Origins of Earth's Oceans

https://www.jpl.nasa.gov/news/news.p...ily-20190523-2

"The mystery of why Earth has so much water, allowing our "blue marble" to support an astounding array of life, is clearer with new research into comets. Comets are like snowballs of rock, dust, ice, and other frozen chemicals that vaporize as they get closer to the Sun, producing the tails seen in images. A new study reveals that the water in many comets may share a common origin with Earth's oceans, reinforcing the idea that comets played a key role in bringing water to our planet billions of years ago."

*** Oh boy, Palsing, you're a real crackerjack when it comes to Astronomy.
The Oort Cloud is populated almost entirely by icy objects. Every now and
then one gets bumped from it orbit and does indeed become a comet and the
ice is gradually turned into vapor as it approaches the Sun. BTW, that's
how Mercury, Venus and Mars got their water. Mercury's was vaporized by its
proximity to old Sol, Venus is shrouded partially by its steam and Mars lost
its water due to some cataclysmic event that exposed its surface to the Sun
and its surface water evaporated.
If you have any more questions, just ask.

Hagar, in this particular post I agree with everything that you have stated. How does the article I referenced disagree with what you have just stated?

*** It just amazes me that you think of yourself as so brilliant and the
rest of us as so mentally starved, that you had to dredge up astronomical
facts that every high schooler should know and present them as the latest
and greatest in Palsing discoveries of the decade, you, the expert on
anything and everything in the realm of physics astronomy climate and
egomania.

Everyone thinks they see everything correctly including you.

What an asshole you are, Hagar. No, really, a complete asshole. Or maybe you are just another angry old man who is ****ed-off at the circumstances that life has dealt him and forwards it on to everyone else.

All I did was reference a recent study that seems to reinforce the idea that comets played a key role in bringing water to our planet billions of years ago. That's it. These are new facts that high-schoolers cannot possibly have previously known, and I in no way presented this article as one of the latest and greatest discoveries of the decade. Simply referencing an article by others does not make me an expert on anything, and I have not ever made such a claim.

If you think the results of this study are incorrect or that the data has been misinterpreted, well, you are free to provide your own evidence to the contrary. If you can't do that, then please just shut the **** up and go pound sand. I thought it was an interesting article and incorrectly thought that you, for example, might enjoy it and learn something new, as I did. Perhaps you already know everything there is to know and no longer have room in your little pea-brain to learn anything else.

What a ****in' complete loser you appear to be! I suggest you ignore my posts in the future since they seem to induce you to a state of rage for some obscure reason, but in any case, is probably not good for your health. Life's too short to waste it being angry.

*** I will gladly do that, Palsing, since they certainly are worth ignoring.
I have known for at least a decade that the water of the rocky planets came
from the Oort cloud, so you posting this on the Astronomy NG, which is
supposedly frequented by people who study this stuff, as the hottest news
off the press is a sign of your total arrogance and patronizing attitude
towards your fellow man.
Speaking of assholes, take a good long look in the mirror.

You are saying nosense

Mars did not lose its water due to some cataclysmic event,

Three main reasons explain the loss of water from Mars

- The Late Heavy Bombardment approximately 4.1 to 3.8 billion years ago

- The disappearance of magnetic field 3.7 to 3.2 billion years ago

- And in addition, the loss of water is progressive even now

Before 4.1 billions years ago, the Mars atmospher had the same pressure
and temperatur as the currently Earth, with rains, rivers and oceans

Comets are dirty snowballs. They don't have enough water to fill up the Earth's oceans.

And what, Mark, are snowballs made of, if not water?
