This water, now over 4.5 billion years old, has been perpetually renewed through Earth’s water cycle. My research team has recently proposed a new theory to explain how water first arrived on Earth.

Scientists suggest microlightning in water droplets could have sparked the creation of Earth's earliest organic molecules. The new research, published in Science Advances, builds upon the landmark ...
