In this week’s episode of “Innovations,” scientists from the Carnegie Institution for Science in Washington and the University of California, Los Angeles, used information provided by exoplanet discoveries over the past 10 years to run a simulation of a nascent Earth, to glean valuable data about its formational history. Earth’s potential. The researchers provided evidence that the waters of our planet were created as a result of interactions between the hydrogen-rich atmosphere and the magma oceans of the planets that formed the first stages of Earth’s formation. The study also reached an understanding of the atmospheric compositions of what are known as exoplanets, in the Milky Way, in unprecedented detail. On the importance of this study, which was published by Nature magazine, colleague Salah Shuaib conducted an interview with Professor Anat Shahar, a specialist in geochemistry and engineering geosciences.
