According to Genesis, from the time of Adam to the time of Noah, it had never rained on the earth. Plants were watered from a mist that rose from the ground. Most likely it would be wise for Scientists to start from that assumption.

If they'd consumed about 5 tons of crack per scientist, yes.

Tellers of the some of the earliest creation stories lived near rivers and/or well irrigated regions so that such assertions need not seem so outlandish.
The key would seem an atmosphere that was, and is yet able to retain water, principally outgassed from the earth's interior through volcanism.
These ideas are perfectly consistent with Genesis.

According to Genesis, from the time of Adam to the time of Noah, it had never rained on the earth. Where in Genesis does it say it never rained before Noah?
This is part of the creationist geological theory of George Macreedy Price, popular with modern creationists but not the same as Genesis.
