@astrokirsten: 💧 You won’t believe this wild fact... The Orion Nebula, a place where stars are born, produces enough water molecules to fill Earth's oceans 60 times every day! 🤯 But guess what? Earth's water came from space too! Billions of years ago, comets and asteroids rich in water crashed into our young planet, leaving us with the water we depend on today. 🌍 This water has been recycled over and over for billions of years. The water you’re drinking today is the same water that dinosaurs sipped on, just refreshed by nature’s amazing water cycle. 🦕🌧️ One thing to keep in mind is that only 3% of Earth’s water is freshwater, and less than 1% of that is easily accessible. So, next time you take a sip, think about its incredible journey from being born in space to being part of Earth’s natural cycle. Let’s protect this precious resource—it’s all we’ve got! 💙 @Sydney Water #WaterFromSpace #OrionNebula #WaterCycle #EarthsWater #ProtectOurPlanet #SydneyWater
