The origin of water on earth was not known. Humans as far as we know took water for granted as a product of earth itself.
But as NASA stated, the source of most of water in our planet came with commets and asteroids which collided with earth:

But the fact was mentioned very early in history in the Quran:
Note: the "One" is God.
In another verse:
Note: "we" is the Arabic way to call a very great thing; in the Quran that is God
NASA just asserted these ancient verses; water did indeed come from the skies, it does indeed have a limit -it can even be measured by modern humans-, and indeed it can go away.

Quote:Over billions of years, countless comets and asteroids have collided with Earth, enriching our planet with water. Chemical markers in the water of our oceans suggest that most of the water came from asteroids. Recent observations hint that ice, and possibly even liquid water, exists in the interiors of asteroids and comets.
But the fact was mentioned very early in history in the Quran:
Quote:Mufti Taqi Usmani
https://quran.com/43/11?translations=
Sura 43, The Quran:
(11) and the One who has sent down water from the sky in due measure. Then We have revived with it a dead town. In the same way, you will be brought forth (alive from the graves),
Note: the "One" is God.
In another verse:
Quote:Mufti Taqi Usmani
https://quran.com/23/18?translations=
Sura 23, The Quran:
(18) And We sent down water from the sky in due measure, then We lodged it in the earth, and of course, We are able to take it away.
