Re: [meteorite-list] Science Journal: Earth's water didn't come from comets, scientists now say
Hi Kelly: Thanks for posting this. I have not read the original article, but I assume that when they present measurements from asteroids, this is really measurements from meteorites which came from asteroids. Larry hi, Michael... I am curious how such a definitive conclusion can be reached from the analysis of a singular cometary body? several others have chimed in, but let me try to add something new: it's not just this one object, really. to date we have D:H ratios for about a dozen comets, including one (Halley) measured in situ. prior to this result, *all* of the comets derived from the Oort Cloud had D:H ratios that are much too high to be compatible with Earth - and yet the two Jupiter-Family Comets that had been measured (by ESA's Herschel space telescope) showed D:H ratios *very* close to Earth's. there was hope. but 67P is also a JFC, and its D:H ratio is the highest yet measured. statistically, based on that alone, it's very unlikely that only JFCs with the terrestrial D:H ratio would have struck Earth. it also implied that the Kuiper Belt (source of the JFCs) must comprise objects from a mix of sources. a plot of all the D:H ratios determined to date is in the Science paper, and that plot appears in Sky Telescope's write-up of this result: http://www.skyandtelescope.com/astronomy-news/rosetta-earths-water-not-from-com ets-120920141/ clear skies, Kelly J.

hi, Larry... I have not read the original article, but I assume that when they present measurements from asteroids, this is really measurements from meteorites which came from asteroids. yes. the figure in question cites about a half dozen sources; the asteroid data appear to come from http://www.sciencemag.org/content/337/6095/721.abstract. one of the citations is this really excellent overview of the whole asteroid-comet water debate: http://arxiv.org/pdf/1403.7143v1 clear skies, Kelly J.

[meteorite-list] Fake Web Sites Are Involved In Impersonating Scientific Journals
Cyber criminals are stealing the identity of reputable science journals by creating fake web sites and using them to collect author fees, These fees disappear to Armenia and other countries. They most commonly target journals that lack dedicated websites of their own. In some cases, such websites have collected author fees of up to 500 dollars from authors for a paper that never gets published. Go see: You think this journal is real?
