Водород широко распространен в природе, его содержание в земной коре (литосфера и гидросфера) составляет по массе 1%, а по числу атомов 16%. Водород входит в состав самого распространенного вещества на Земле - воды (11,19% Водорода по массе), в состав соединений, слагающих угли, нефть, природные газы, глины, а также организмы животных и растений (то есть в состав белков, нуклеиновых кислот, жиров, углеводов и других). В свободном состоянии Водород встречается крайне редко, в небольших количествах он содержится в вулканических и других природных газах. Ничтожные количества свободного Водорода (0,0001% по числу атомов) присутствуют в атмосфере. В околоземном пространстве Водород в виде потока протонов образует внутренний ("протонный") радиационный пояс Земли. В космосе Водород является самым распространенным элементом. В виде плазмы он составляет около половины массы Солнца и большинства звезд, основную часть газов межзвездной среды и газовых туманностей. Водород присутствует в атмосфере ряда планет и в кометах.
