Quasar APM 08279+5255 hosts a black hole with a mass 20 billion times that of the sun.

Its energy output matches that of a thousand trillion suns, creating an extreme environment where water vapor thrives.

The Milky Way does contain water vapor, yet in amounts 4,000 times smaller than what surrounds this quasar.

Comets are rich in water ice, which sublimates (turns into gas) when they approach the Sun , creating their characteristic tails.

Scientists have found water on several comets, with one of the most notable examples being Comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko .

Water has been detected in the atmospheres of some exoplanets (planets outside our solar system).
