[meteorite-list] Earth's Water Came From Space Dust?

[Paul]

Sullivan, C., 2015, Earth’s water came from space dust during
planetary formation, Eos. vol. 96, no. 2, p. 3. doi:10.1029/2015EO040147.

" A new analysis of lava from the deep mantle indicates that
water-soaked dust particles, rather than a barrage of icy
comets, asteroids, or other bodies, delivered water to the newly
forming Earth."
