Insights into the formation of Earth and other celestial bodies may have been unveiled through observations of a distant solar system.

Astronomers have detected substantial concentrations of water vapor in the rocky disk encircling a star in the early stages of its solar system, where planets are anticipated to develop.

This discovery, detailed in a recent publication in the journal Nature Astronomy, suggests that Earth’s formation might be attributed to the proximity of water during its origin from a comparable planetary debris disk more than 4 billion years ago.

The study discloses that the disk surrounding the star, named HL Tauri and positioned approximately 450 light years away from Earth, contains about three times the volume of water found in all the oceans on our planet, Newsweek reported.
