Water existed before the sun in the solar system. This is what the scientist engaged in understanding the formation of the solar system says. Scientists have been trying to find out for many years that what existed first in the universe – sun, water, earth, sky or something else. Now a research has claimed that the existence of water existed before the Sun.
Scientist John J. Tobin of America’s National Radio Astronomy Observatory said – We did research on the disk of a star. From this we have come to know about the origin of water in the solar system before the formation of the sun. The name of this star is V883 Orionis. It is 1300 light years away from the earth. We came to know from the disc formed around it that water was present here in the form of gas.
Research on the disk of a star
John J. Tobin said- When a cloud made of gas and dust explodes, a star is formed. A disk of this cloud is also formed around this star. The water we found in the disk of V883 Orionis has some chemicals in it. It shows how water reached the planets from the stars. It also supports the theory that water on Earth is older than the Sun.
The temperature of V883 Orionis is so high that it turns the water present in the surrounding disk into gas. Scientists studied this gas to find out the origin of water.
Water is formed in different conditions
He said – the substances present in this disc formed around the star get stuck after thousands of years. These later become comets, asteroids and planets. We know that water is formed under different conditions. Their ratio varies.
For example, some comets in the Solar System have been shown to have a ratio similar to that of water on Earth. From this it seems that water reached the earth through comets. The composition of water in the disk of V883 Orionis is similar to that of comets in our Solar System. From this we can say that water was formed billions of years ago. Formed in space, even before the Sun.
water i.e. 2 atoms of hydrogen and 1 atom of oxygen
Be it drizzling rain, steam coming out of a kettle or a lush ball of ice prepared by grinding ingots. These three forms of water are called H2O in chemistry. H2O means water molecule. And molecule is the unit of any substance. Just like our body is made up of cells. That is, cells are the unit of our body. H2O means water is made up of three atoms. There are two atoms of hydrogen and one of oxygen. Hence its name H2O.
