Water On Rosetta's Comet Different To Water On Earth | IFLScience

Quote:
Now, the results are in, and it seems that cosmic snowballs are no longer the prime suspect. The water on Earth doesn’t match up with the water surrounding 67P, leading scientists to point the finger at another suspect: asteroids. However, some have argued that this conclusion is a little hasty, and that more data is needed before comets can be eliminated.

Not sure how seriously I'd take a science website that can't use prepositions correctly.

"Different To" should be "Different From". The most common mistake is "Different Than", and it's become somewhat accepted. "Different To" is really messed up. It's an interesting report and probably 100% reliable, but my BS detector goes off whenever a scientist makes an obvious grammatical error.

Agreed, but I've noticed the English say "different to".

When someone says "different to" I just assume they are leaving out the word "compared".
