Question for our resident creationist(s)

RE: Question for our resident creationist(s)
Quote:The deepest ocean on Earth is the Pacific Ocean's Marianas Trench, which reaches a depth of 6.8 miles awesomely trumped by the depth of the ocean on the Jupiter's moon, Europa, which some measurements put at 62 miles.

Quote: most Kuiper belt objects are composed largely of frozen volatiles (termed "ices"), such as methane, ammonia and water. The classical belt is home to at least three dwarf planets: Pluto, Haumea, and Makemake. Some of the Solar System's moons, such as Neptune's Triton and Saturn's Phoebe, are also believed to have originated in the region.

Since the belt was discovered in 1992, the number of known Kuiper belt objects (KBOs) has increased to over a thousand, and more than 100,000 KBOs over 100 km (62 mi) in diameter are believed to exist.

Quote:Using ESO’s Very Large Telescope (VLT), a team of astronomers have been able to detect the telltale spectral fingerprint of water molecules in the atmosphere of a planet in orbit around another star. The discovery endorses a new technique that will let astronomers efficiently search for water on hundreds of worlds without the need for space-based telescopes.

Not to mention that water is found in Mercury's atmosphere (and possibly as ice in the polar regions), as well as Venus'. It's found on Mars as ice, several extra-terrestrial moons are positively lousy with it, and it's found in Saturn's rings.

That's just in our local solar system and doesn't even begin to explore the discoveries of water elsewhere in the universe.

For fuck's sake, water is made of the two most common reactive elements in the observable universe, hydrogen and oxygen (helium is more common than oxygen but is ordinarily non-reactive). Why wouldn't it be everywhere that hydrogen and oxygen are found?

No one talks with me? Can you show that to be true?

Are you quoting ronedee on that second one? And was that edited out of the original? Thinking

I came across that this morning while I was refreshing my memory about water in the universe.

This formation holds "140 trillion times the water in Earth's oceans".

Earth's oceans x 140,000,000,000,000.

Mind. Blown.

And that's just the free water vapor. It doesn't include any of the ice. It is 4000 times more water vapor than there is floating around the Milky Way, but only 1% of the water in the empty spaces of the Milky Way consist of water vapor. The other 99% here is ice. If the water vapor to water ice ratio surrounding APM 08279+5255 is the same as it is in the Milky Way you can add a couple of more zeros to that 140 trillion.

Okay, I praised you in another thread, but now we're right back to fighting: Are you fucking kidding me with this shit? This is your answer?

However, I'm going to do something you apparently didn't feel the need to do, and I'm going to treat you as if you have some intellectual curiosity and mental acuity. Here's a water formation in space that's billions of times bigger than the Earth. Isn't that cool?

The other strange thing is that you'll disagree out of hand about the commonness of water, despite standing on a planet that's mostly water, using a body that's mostly water. Just saying.

Thanks for something.

Hydrogen is the most abundant element in the universe. But, to make water is vurtuially a miracle!

So, if we are talking "liquid" NOT H2O, that's something else!

RE: Question for our resident creationist(s)
How is making water a miracle? Hydrogen plus oxygen plus a little energy = water. The friggin space shuttle main engines burned hydrogen and oxygen and produced water as a by product...
