    How many isotopes of oxygen occur naturally? Hydrogen? The temperature was mentioned, but not the pressure. Why not?

    There are many types and states of water / ice. This is one reason why, in another recent thread, the possibility of forms of abiogenesis we understand nothing about should not be discounted or discarded so readily and replaced with Genesis, which was never intended as science or a science textbook. Genesis doesn't even scratch at the surface of what we don't know. It is a joke written for gullible mishappen people too stupid even to get the humor in it.

    If we can miss the science of properties of water, which is vital to survival, what really are the chances we have a handle on understanding anything else in the universe?

    'Hysterical'? Hilarious.

    Three for each.
    For Oxygen, O16 accounts for 99.76% , O17 0.04% and O18 0.2%
    For Hydrogen, H1 accounts for 99.98%, H2 0.02% and just a trace of H3, which has a half-life of 12.32 years.

    They keep using the word 'state'. I do not think that word means what they think it means.

    I do believe they mean 'phases'.

    And there are at least a dozen phases of water:

    If you say progressive transition , are you not admitting there are two states ? # 1 before transition # 2 after the Hydrogen bonds broken
