But Catling's team proposes instead that the hydrogen escaped into space through a process called methane photolysis, in which the hydrogen - containing methane reacts with oxygen such that hydrogen atoms are freed.

As the water boiled away, the hydrogen escaped into interstellar space while the oxygen came back down and bonded with carbon atoms.

Under greater pressures and temperatures, it transforms into an even denser form called stishovite, with silicon atoms surrounded by six oxygen atoms.

After breaking away from the molecule in the strong laser field, the electron returned and was scattered on a molecular ion, which resulted in the molecule dissociation into a positive nitrogen ion and an oxygen atom.

Scientists suspect water on the surface of Mars evaporates, rises into the upper atmosphere, breaks into hydrogen and oxygen atoms, and is then swept into outer space by the solar wind.

Those reactions weave the simple atoms of hydrogen, carbon, and oxygen into complex organic molecules.

In particular, a charged molecule called hydronium, which has three hydrogen atoms and one oxygen ion, can transform into water (plus an independent hydrogen atom) if it captures a free - floating electron.

Some of these recombine into nitric oxide, and this in turn reacts with other atmospheric chemicals, occasionally producing a molecule made up of three oxygen atoms — ozone, or O3.
