75% of Earth's surface is still flooded :)
- Konohamaru 6y agoGeologists generally speaking don't know how the ocean emerged, but all agree it wasn't due to a catastrophic deluge.
- eloff 6y agoAt least after formation, but also likely again after the impact thought to produce the moon, all the surface was melted, so all the water was in the atmosphere and inside the Earth. When things cooled enough for liquid water to rain down and stay liquid, that must have been some deluge.
