I never heard that before, along with the theory that all of Earth's water may have been brought here by asteroids millennia ago when impacts were pretty frequent.

And along those same lines, if Earth were to be obliterated by a giant asteroid, the pieces breaking off could become asteroids containing both water and organic matter....ultimately seeding life on another planet.

Panspermia, I think is what they call that.  I've read some interesting theories that state that this is how life originated on this planet.

As for the pictures of Ceres....I have no clue what that is.  Does it show up in all photos, or could it just be a fault in a photo or two?
