Water Discovered on Second Asteroid, May Be Even More Common

ScienceDaily for October 7, 2010 reported on water and ice found in an asteroid.

"This discovery suggests that this region of our solar system contains more water ice than anticipated," said University of Central Florida Professor Humberto Campins. "And it supports the theory that asteroids may have hit Earth and brought our planet its water and the building blocks for life to form and evolve here."
