Just about everything on the Earth contains at least a little water. Some volcanic rocks are pretty dry, but sedimentary rocks generally contain at least a little water. Everything living contains water, so anywhere that you find ANY kind of plant, you're looking at something that contains water. Even the deserts aren't COMPLETELY dry.

Do stars have water?

Stars are composed mainly of hydrogen and helium gases, so they do not have water in the liquid form like on Earth. However, some stars do contain water in the form of water vapor in their outer atmospheres, but not in the same way we think of water on Earth.


Which of Jupiters moons is thought to have more water than earth?

Which planet's water resources might be close to the amount on Earth?

Jupiter's moon Europa is believed to have a subsurface ocean that could potentially contain as much water as all of Earth's oceans combined. This makes it one of the best candidates for hosting liquid water in our solar system outside of Earth.


HOW DOES WATER ON THE MOON AND EARTH COMPARE?

Water on the Moon exists primarily as ice, found in permanently shadowed craters at the poles, while Earth has abundant liquid water covering about 71% of its surface. Earth's water cycle supports diverse ecosystems and life, whereas the Moon's water is largely inaccessible and not part of a cycle. Additionally, the Moon's water is believed to be a result of solar wind interactions and comet impacts, contrasting with Earth's water, which has been stable for billions of years. Overall, while both celestial bodies contain water, its forms, availability, and roles differ significantly.


What moon of Jupiter has a surface of water ice?

How does the spinning of the earth effect earth's water?

It actually doesnt much. The main contributing factor to the movement of the water and tides is the moon. Every day= 1 revolution around earth for the moon, so the tides go with the moon. So actaully, the rotation of the earth really doesnt effect it much.
