Check out any one of these sites, I love stories like this. An aging not very well known satellite (SWAS) surprises us yet again with fantastic news of a dying star vaporizing several hundered billion comets and detects a quantity of water vapor equivelent to 10,000 times the amount found in the oceans of the Earth.
This is great news and makes me even more excited and optomistic about finding life elsewhere. Any comments or questions on this story?
