Default Researcher says Earth's oceans 'homegrown'

Researcher says Earth's oceans 'homegrown' - UPI.com
"Astronomers have long theorized that comets and asteroids delivered the
water for the world's oceans during an epoch of heavy bombardment that
ended about 3.9 billion years ago, but researchers at Massachusetts
Institute of Technology contend the water came from the very rocks that
formed the planet, AAAS ScienceMag.org reported Monday."
