Water ice on asteroids may be more common than expected, according to a new study from the University of Central Florida. Two teams of researchers who made national headlines in April, 2010 for showing the first evidence of water ice and organic molecules on asteroid 24 Themis have now discovered that asteroid 65 Cybele also contains water ice. This unexpected finding may hold clues to the origins of Earth's oceans and life 4 billion years ago. It helps support the theory that asteroids may have hit Earth and brought our planet its water and the building blocks for life.
