Iceland glaciers are home gases in solar nebula


The layer of under Iceland glaciers of the deepest layer would house gases from the solar nebula, the cloud of dust and gas that gave rise to the planets of the Solar System, according to a study released today by the scientific journal "Nature". This cloud, composed mainly of hydrogen, helium and dust existed in the first tens of thousands of years of history of the solar system and led to several of its planets, before being spread by winds from the Sun Now, 4 000 600 million years later, scientists at Harvard University have found traces of helium that was part of the solar nebula, trapped in tiny bubbles in volcanic rocks from under the glaciers of Iceland.
