    Water covers over 70% of the Earth, cycling from the oceans and rivers to the clouds and back again. It even makes up about 60% of our bodies. But in the rest of the solar system, liquid water is almost impossible to find. So how did our planet end up with so much of this substance? And where did it come from? Zachary Metz outlines the ancient origins of water on Earth.
    Lesson by Zachary Metz, animation by The Moving Company Animation Studio.

    • @tylerdurden3722
      @tylerdurden3722 Год назад

      It's actually easy to know if Mars had lots of water. Most of the crystaline structures of minerals here on earth needed water to precipitate into those crystals. It's actually hard to find rocks made up of minerals here on earth that wasn't formed this way.
      If Mars has such minerals, then mystery solved.
      They recently discovered that Mars was hit by a massive meteorite. It melted and formed a lake in the crater and then drained forming rivers. One can assume this happened lots of times. But these seem to be short lived periods of surface water.
      This water is then lost in 3 ways.
      1. It reacts with CO2 to form methane.
      2. Some of the evaporated water is split and the hydrogen escapes into space.
      3. The rest runs off into the crust, and keeps going down until it is hot enough to prevent the water from going down further. Slowly becoming methane until the atmosphere runs out of CO2.
      So it really comes down to how well can the planet retain water on the surface.
      After the earth got hit by that other planet, the earth became really good at retaining its water near the surface.
      The earth became a lava ball, so any water that had been hanging out deep below the surface, got pushed up.
      If the earth cooled slightly, our oceans would sink deeper into the crust (most of it is already in the crust).
      The Earth used to have huge amounts of methane that made the atmosphere very heavy (the atmosphere had insane pressures.) Methane is actually a sign of water (when O2 is available). More methane, more water. Oxygen is also proceed as a by product...probably why Mars is so red.
      The boiling point of water rises with pressure. So, more heat is needed for water to evaporate.
      Life removed the methane and CO2, and created the Ozone layer (Less UV to split water molecules and having the hydrogen float away).
      Materials in our solar system seperated from dense to less dense, away from the sun. It's why the overwhelmingly vast majority of the solar systems water is in the Kepler belt. That's normal...its how it's supposed to be.
      The fact that the earth has this much water in the first place, is a weird mystery. We're not supposed to have significant amounts of water to begin with. Water shouldnt be around these parts this near the sun, because of it's density it's supposed to be in the Kepler belt.
      If that planet didn't hit us, when it hit us, we wouldn't have this water on the surface now.

      @@B00glefop Because the boiling point of water depends on atmospheric pressure. Water boils at 212 F here on Earth because the atmospheric pressure is 14.7 PSI.
      The lower the pressure, the lower the boiling point.
      The pressure on Mars is 0.095 PSI -- _much_ lower than here on Earth. This makes the boiling point of water on Mars a mere 23 F. Your internal body temperature is 98 F.
      So it would be like heating a pot of water up to 401 F here on Earth.

    I think there is a highly water-centric mentality to hydrogen and oxygen on earth. At the edges of our a atmosphere, under intense UV and other radiation water, hydrogen and oxygen naturally exist in equilibrium. Therefore the story of water is the story of oxygen. Hydrogen is a totally different matter. Hydrogen on earth in all it's forms, over the longest time scales forms an equilibrium with the solar, interstellar and galactic medium.

    What I don't get is why he claims that the water would have just flown off into space. Why isn't it possible for earth to have had an atmosphere made mostly of water for the first couple hundred million years? And then when the earth had cooled enough the water would settle, while outgassing replaced it with mostly carbon dioxide and nitrogen. Makes a lot more sense to me, given how the current atmosphere isn't just being blown away.

      If our surface temperature was any where near as hot as it was then our atmosphere would evaporate. The earth would first need to solidify and cool down before an atmosphere and liquid oceans would begin to form.

    • @LowYieldFire
      @LowYieldFire 9 лет назад +1

      levvy16 You're entirely right, however this does not adress my point. Just because it would turn into a gas (the definition of "evaporate"), does not mean that it gets blown off the planet. Our current atmosphere is made out of gasses and doesn't get blown away, so why could a red-hot ball of molten rock not have an atmosphere?

    • @levvy16
      @levvy16 9 лет назад +8

      It's nothing to do with it being a gas or a solid, it's just forces pushing against each other. If you boil water you get steam, but if you keep heating up that steam it will give it more energy. Eventually you get enough energy that it can push through the gravity. When temperatures settle down this will stop happening.

    The greatest laboratory on earth is the earth itself. Some water may have come from space, but the law of averages would have put a relatively similar amount on the rest of the planets.The positive & negative flux lines of the sun is where planets form. Putting one positive and one negative charged particle together will make one neutral particle or a light neutron. Since either the + or - end of a magnet will stick to an uncharged piece of iron, it seems a light neutron is now capable of increasing it's mass by attracting either a + or - charged particle. If it attracts one of each, the neutron's mass increases. If it attracts only a single + or -, It can attract another neutron.Water and all other elements may be manufactured in the earth itself with a combination of heat & light from the sun, lightning striking and electromagnetic and gravitational pressures manufacturing them from within.

      Reeceoo7 Color is just light. After white light hits an object, the object absorbs the colors, but most of the time it doesn't absorb all the color, and the remaining color bounces back to you for you to interpret. The less of an object there is, the less color there is on it. That is why there is hardly any color in a glass of water, but the deeper into the sea you go, the more blue it is. And when the color gets darker, that is when there is less light hitting the object.

    So the quran was right.
    [Quran 2.164] *... In the water which Allah sent down from the Heavens and brought with it life to Earth after being dead and gave life in it to every kind of land animal;* And in directing the winds; *And in the clouds that are enslaved between the Heavens and the Earth;* [All these] are Signs for a people who comprehend.
    The clouds are enslaved between the Earth and the heavens but the water itself came from the heavens (above the clouds). Here God is not talking about rain (matar or wadk in Arabic) instead God is talking about water (*ma-e in Arabic*).
    In another verse, the Quran says that water originally came from the heavens (above the clouds) in the form of ice. There are mountains in heaven that have ice inside them; those mountains could fall on Earth making a very bright flash:
    [Quran 24.43] *Can't you see that Allah makes the clouds move gently, then joins them together, then makes them into a pile?* Then you see rain come out from within? And *He sends down from heaven mountains with ice inside them;* that strike whomever He wishes or miss whoever He wishes; Its flash almost blinds you.
    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    I don't know why everyone is disputing what the quran says about this. It's very clear that in the quran, water was sent down from space...

      +Kaito Samanusekae I read couple translations, the both verses of Quran are talking about rain you idiot. Water is rain. Many of the translations clearly says rain. It is saying without rain, the Earth would be dead and how rain gives life to every kind of animal; that is a common knowledge. Why would the verse talk about cloud and wind, if it was not rain? It is not about forming ice from space, it is talking about hail. Stop your religious propaganda.
      Here are the translations:
      Quran 2:164
      MUHSIN KHAN: Verily! In the creation of the heavens and the earth, and in the alternation of night and day, and the ships which sail through the sea with that which is of use to mankind, and the water (rain) which Allah sends down from the sky and makes the earth alive therewith after its death, and the moving (living) creatures of all kinds that He has scattered therein, and in the veering of winds and clouds which are held between the sky and the earth, are indeed Ayat (proofs, evidences, signs, etc.) for people of understanding.
      PICKTHALLL: o! In the creation of the heavens and the earth, and the difference of night and day, and the ships which run upon the sea with that which is of use to men, and the water which Allah sendeth down from the sky, thereby reviving the earth after its death, and dispersing all kinds of beasts therein, and (in) the ordinance of the winds, and the clouds obedient between heaven and earth: are signs (of Allah's Sovereignty) for people who have sense.
      SAHIH INTERNATIONAL: Indeed, in the creation of the heavens and earth, and the alternation of the night and the day, and the [great] ships which sail through the sea with that which benefits people, and what Allah has sent down from the heavens of rain, giving life thereby to the earth after its lifelessness and dispersing therein every [kind of] moving creature, and [His] directing of the winds and the clouds controlled between the heaven and the earth are signs for a people who use reason.
      SHAKIR: Most surely in the creation of the heavens and the earth and the alternation of the night and the day, and the ships that run in the sea with that which profits men, and the water that Allah sends down from the cloud, then gives life with it to the earth after its death and spreads in it all (kinds of) animals, and the changing of the winds and the clouds made subservient between the heaven and the earth, there are signs for a people who understand.
      YUSUF ALI: Behold! in the creation of the heavens and the earth; in the alternation of the night and the day; in the sailing of the ships through the ocean for the profit of mankind; in the rain which Allah Sends down from the skies, and the life which He gives therewith to an earth that is dead; in the beasts of all kinds that He scatters through the earth; in the change of the winds, and the clouds which they Trail like their slaves between the sky and the earth;- (Here) indeed are Signs for a people that are wise.
      Quran 24:43:
      MUHSIN KHAN:
      See you not that Allah drives the clouds gently, then joins them together, then makes them into a heap of layers, and you see the rain comes forth from between them. And He sends down from the sky hail (like) mountains, (or there are in the heaven mountains of hail from where He sends down hail), and strike therewith whom He will, and averts it from whom He wills. The vivid flash of its (clouds) lightning nearly blinds the sight. [Tafsir At-Tabari].
      PICKTHALLHast thou not seen how Allah wafteth the clouds, then gathereth them, then maketh them layers, and thou seest the rain come forth from between them; He sendeth down from the heaven mountains wherein is hail, and smiteth therewith whom He will, and averteth it from whom He will. The flashing of His lightning all but snatcheth away the sight.
      SAHIH INTERNATIONAL: Do you not see that Allah drives clouds? Then He brings them together, then He makes them into a mass, and you see the rain emerge from within it. And He sends down from the sky, mountains [of clouds] within which is hail, and He strikes with it whom He wills and averts it from whom He wills. The flash of its lightening almost takes away the eyesight.
      SHAKIR: Do you not see that Allah drives along the clouds, then gathers them together, then piles them up, so that you see the rain coming forth from their midst? And He sends down of the clouds that are (like) mountains wherein is hail, afflicting therewith whom He pleases and turning it away from whom He pleases; the flash of His lightning almost takes away the sight.
      YUSUF ALI: Seest thou not that Allah makes the clouds move gently, then joins them together, then makes them into a heap? - then wilt thou see rain issue forth from their midst. And He sends down from the sky mountain masses (of clouds) wherein is hail: He strikes therewith whom He pleases and He turns it away from whom He pleases, the vivid flash of His lightning well-nigh blinds the sight.

    It's no coincidence that Genesis describes the initial stage of this planet as being water. This is in stark constrast to the bombardment theory, and goes against the earth initially forming by collisions of rocks creating a fireball and cooling to form planet earth. Trying to use materialistic explanations to explain the origin of our amazing planet may not go far enough but videos like these simply increase my faith in a supernatural and intelligent designer. It should also challenge those who claim science vs religion, which is not the case. Regardless I think the more honestly we examine the evidence will ultimately point at a young earth and universe.

      What do you think about extinction? When the idea was first becoming popular the churches and many religious people rejected it. "Why would God create animals just to let them be destroyed?" However, most religious people today accept extinction as a fact. Just as your decedents, whether religious or not, will likely accept much of the science you reject today.
      One bit of advice. Don't try and fill in the gaps of scientific knowledge with your god. If your god lives in the gaps of human knowledge, what happens to your god as those gaps get smaller? Taking the "god gap" approach only serves to postpone the death of your beliefs.
