∙ 15y agoVolcanoes erupting left vapor in the air which eventually froze over then defrosted and continued in that cycle. It came from volcanoes. Early in its history, the earth was under constant volcanism, and the water vapor condensed as the planet cooled. Even today, millions of tonnes of water are added to planet's surface each year by volcanos. These days, some of the water from volcanos is recycled, that is seeped into rock and reheated, but most is emerging for the first time. Additionally, some scientists believe that a contributor to the amount of water on Earth was asteroid bombardment with their accompanying H20.
