I am confused. Two meteorites (One of them being ZAG) have recently made
headlines for containing water from space. There are only two known
meteorites with water from space. However, quoting Richard norton's book
(Rocks from space) he says on page 84 when discussing Murchison "CM2
Meteorites are water bearing. They contain about 10% water". Why is
murchison not considered to contain water from space?
Thanks
DEAN
