Re:Earth’s Water Is Older Than the Sun by scott_s on Friday September 26, 2014 @09:46AM (#8372611)
It's actually not obvious. All elements in the solar system are older than the sun. But water is not an element, it is a molecule: two hydrogens, one oxygen. So it's not a given that the water in our solar system became water before the stellar collapse that resulted in our sun. I could also conceive of the water and oxygen combining during that collapse.
