Earth could have been a hostile ocean planet if not for ancient supernova
Shortly after the birth of the sun, a nearby star came to a thermonuclear end. The stellar funeral pyre bathed the young solar system with large amounts of radioactive metals. Swiss researchers suggest that the heat from aluminum isotopes from this supernova evaporated the excess amounts of water on the young Earth, thereby keeping it from transforming into a lifeless, […]
