A research team has produced the first direct experimental evidence that Earth’s iron core traps hydrogen inside nanoscale ...

Researchers have identified a period of sluggish magnetic field flipping for planet Earth, some 40 million years ago – ...

The Earth's magnetic field and oxygen evolved together over 540 million years, according to a major NASA study.

Earth's inner core, once rotating faster than the surface, has begun to slow, impacting day length by fractions of a second. This subtle shift, detected through seismic wave analysis, reveals complex ...

The Hubble Space Telescope has unveiled a remarkable new view of the Egg Nebula, the closest known pre-planetary nebula to Earth. The image captures a Sun-like star casting off its outer layers, ...

NASA says Earth is about halfway through its lifespan. Scientists explain how solar changes could affect habitability, oceans, and the planet’s future over billions of years ...

As the Sun slowly grows brighter over billions of years, our planet will eventually become uninhabitable and may one day be consumed.

It was also the first time I noticed how a lunar eclipse could affect animal behavior. When the moon was still bright, a nearby male American woodcock repeatedly broadcast his buzzy "peent" call in ...

DS1, collapsed into a black hole without exploding, revealing how stars die in silent “failed supernova” events.

The study of earthquakes called Seismology, relies on the fact that different materials within the Earth react differently to stress. When a fault slips, energy radiates outward from the focus (the ...

Scientists at Stanford have unveiled the first-ever global map of rare earthquakes that rumble deep within Earth’s mantle rather than its crust. Long debated and notoriously difficult to confirm, ...

When we think of ice on Mars, we typically think of the poles, where we can see it visibly through probes and even ...
