Yeah, me too. I can’t imagine how many unlucky comets it would take to equal the water on this planet. When I took Chemistry in high school, we had a week-long session on how to construct a filter to get pure water. On the exam the next week, the teacher asked us how to get pure water. I was suppose to construct this elaborate filter, but instead I said: “Burn hydrogen.” The teacher was visibly PO’ed, but gave me full credit.

“Burn hydrogen.”

LOL, but you may be exactly correct. In the beginning there was an abundance of hydrogen gas and oxygen gas. All it would take is a spark to combine the two into water.........

LOL & smh

No excuse for being POd at a student thinking outside the box.

But that’s just my non-lefty trained, scientific mind speaking. /s
