Earth's core contains vast hydrogen reserves, 45 times the amount in its oceans

New research reveals Earth's core holds vast hydrogen reserves, estimated to be 45 times the amount in all its oceans. This discovery aids scientists in understanding Earth's formation, magnetic field generation, and the origin of its water. The findings suggest Earth acquired most of its water during its early accretion phase. The study used laboratory experiments simulating core conditions. This research provides crucial insights into planetary water cycles and the potential for hidden water on other rocky planets.
