Have had several emails asking where the water on earth came from, as well as the water on other moons in our solar system. The water that made our oceans and the water on the moons of Jupiter and Saturn came from comets. Comets are made of ice and rock. When they crash into planets and moons, as they did millions of years ago, the ice melts and we have water. During the early days of our solar system, we were bombarded by comets. Outside of our solar system there remains a giant cloud of comet nuclei. It is called the Oort Cloud of Comets. So there you go.
