IF all the planets were formed at the same time, were the oceans on Earth, said to form in less than 150 million years, the result of dust created from the proto-earth collision that created the Moon? (4.5billion yo earth; 4.4 billion yo oceans) https://ocean.si.edu/through-time/ocean-through-time

A theory I read long ago suggested that icy comets hit the earth to supply our oceans.

NASA never analyzed the moon dust for composition and thought about this decades ago?

Part of me calls BS, but I’ll settle for hard science: I want to SEE water from dust.

Yes, I remember about 4 billion years ago when the water-bomb meteors were just tapering off. I almost stepped in a poodle.

Where did the “vast number of asteroids” come from?

Hydrogen is the most abundant element in the universe. The second most abundant, helium, is noble and doesn’t form molecules, but escapes into space instead. The third most abundant is oxygen, which combines with hydrogen to make water. Water is the most abundant molecule in the universe, which is why we have so much. There are whole moons in the outer solar system made of it.

Twisted-pretzel logic attempts to explain that somehow, some way, it had to be a cosmic accident that made it all happen. And atheists mock people of faith.
We have it laid out for us already. There may be questions of when, but the how and why are easily obtainable.

The researchers argue that if the sun's solar wind - a periodic ejection of charged hydrogen and helium ions - came into contact with asteroids, or even asteroid dust, the wind's hydrogen ions would've interacted with oxygen atoms in the rock particles, thereby generating H2O.

After scrutinizing samples of asteroid Itokawa brought back in 2010 by the Japanese space agency's Hayabusa space probe, the team confirmed the sun as a likely contributor to Earth's expansive water content. They published a paper on their findings Monday in the journal Nature Astronomy.
