Exact excerpt
Conclusively, our results demonstrate that Earth acquired its major volatiles from different cosmochemical reservoirs during its main accretion phase, rather than from a single giant impactor or at its late accretion stages. Combined contributions of reduced and oxidized impactors and minimal CI chondrite-like materials, formed at different heliocentric distances in the solar system, agree with observed constraints.
