Chang’e-6 Samples Indicate Water was Delivered to the Earth and Moon by Ancient Meteorites
A research team with the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) examined samples returned by the Chang’e-6 mission from the far side of the Moon. They identified minerals that appear to be from a carbonaceous chondrite meteor, which are known to contain water and organic molecules. These findings support the theory that water and the ingredients for life were delivered by asteroids and comets to Earth billions of years ago.
