Rolci Posted August 29, 2020 #3 Share Posted August 29, 2020 Phew... that explains all the seas on the Moon, the thick oxygen atmosphere of Venus and all those oceans of ice on Mars and most major moons in the solar system. Great theory! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great theory! Yeah, it seems to me oddly exceptional that Earth ended-up as it did... or maybe I just don't know enough about our solar system's early years. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

27vet Posted October 23, 2020 #6 Share Posted October 23, 2020 (edited) Well apparently from bombardment by comets (Earth: Making of a Planet) look it up. It' possibly true, and did they also hit Mars and Venus? And because of the position of Venus and Mars in the Goldilocks zone, their water disappeared? We will never know for sure of course.
