Much evidence supports Earth as the origin of meteorites
• Minerals and isotopes in meteorites are remarkably similar to those on Earth.
• Some meteorites contain sugars, salt crystals containing liquid water,[SUP]73[/SUP] and possible cellulose.
• Other meteorites contain limestone, which, on Earth, forms only in liquid water.
• Many meteorites contain excess amounts of left-handed amino acids—a sign of once-living matter.
• NASA has found DNA components in 12 meteorites.
• A few meteorites show that “salt-rich fluids analogous to terrestrial brines” flowed through their veins.
• Some meteorites have about twice the heavy hydrogen concentration as Earth’s water today. As explained in the preceding chapter and in Endnote 88 on page 379, this heavy hydrogen came from the subterranean chambers. About 86% of all meteorites contain chondrules, which are best explained by the hydroplate theory.
• Bacteria fossils have been found in three meteorites.
Seventy-eight types of
living bacteria have been found in two meteorites after extreme precautions were taken to avoid contamination. Bacteria need liquid water to live, grow, and reproduce. Obviously, liquid water does not exist inside meteoroids whose temperatures in outer space are near absolute zero (- 460°F). Therefore, the bacteria must have been living in the presence of liquid water before being launched into space. Once in space, they quickly froze and became dormant. Had bacteria originated in outer space, what would they have eaten?
Meteorites containing chondrules, salt crystals, limestone, water, DNA components, possible cellulose, sugars, living and fossil bacteria, terrestrial-like brines, excess left-handed amino acids and heavy hydrogen, and Earthlike minerals, isotopes, and other components implicate Earth as their source—and the fountains of the great deep as the powerful launcher.
