There is a universal similarity in the structure of the Earth’s massifs With the use of graphs and fractals, scientists from the Institute of Nuclear Physics of the Polish Academy of Sciences (IFJ PAN) in Cracow looked at the structure of the massifs of our planet.
Off the Coast of Portugal, scientists believe that the Earth’s crust might be peeling off. (Photo : Emre Can) PORTUGAL -- It was in 1969 when the country was hit by an earthquake that caused a tsunami to occur.
Scientists determine the source of water on earth Earth is known as the only planet on the solar system to sustain life. Aside from this, it is also identified to have large amount of water and its axis being stabilized by the moon.
A meteor could hit the Earth within our lifetime. Dangerous asteroids flying past Earth are not rare, and more meteor strikes happen than the public is aware of, the head of NASA has said.
Interesting conclusions come out of the seventh International Climate Change Conference. Climate change itself is already in the process of definitively rebutting climate alarmists who think human use of fossil fuels is causing ultimately catastrophic global warming.
Spotting NEO a challenging task, typical of finding a lump of coal in the night’s sky In February 2013, the Chelyabinsk meteor, a mere 17-20 meters across, caused extensive ground damage and several injuries when it exploded on impact with the atmosphere of the Earth.
A game-changer in the planet-hunting matter The Transmitting Exoplanets Survey Satellite of NASA just discovered a nearby system that hosts the first Earth-size planet and also a warm sub-Neptune-size world.
Paleontologists all over the world continue to search for dinosaur remains. Usually, the remains will be a discovery of tracks that were preserved on stones or on caves. However, remnants of soft tissues in the body like the skin or the muscles are very rare. Oftentimes, the ones they find are not well-preserved and couldn't distinguish whether it's from dinosaurs or not. In fact, only 1% of most of the discoveries show traces of the skin.
Four planets orbit small red dwarf stars and could host life Excitement skyrocketed with the discovery of Earth-like, rocky planets when they were discovered orbiting the habitable zone of some of our closest stars.
Scientists discover a white dwarf slightly larger than Earth. Stars are amazing; from their creation and all through their lifespan they represent beauty, power and mystery.
Scientists examine the Sun’s rain and its changing scientific theory. On Earth, rain is just one part of the larger water cycle; it begins when water collected on the planet's surface is heated by the Sun.
Various cities across the globe go dark for a whole hour. Cities around the world were marking Earth Hour on Saturday night by turning off the lights in a call for global action on climate change.
Two new planets were reportedly discovered through the help of Artificial Intelligence. The researchers from the University of Texas in partnership with Google have utilized the Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology to look into the existence of other possible astronomical objects like a meteor, an asteroid or maybe even a new planet.
Is Earth essentially a zoo? Aliens: full of intrigue, excitement and mystery. The mere thought of an alien provokes an abundance of questions. Do they exist? What do they look like? How old is their civilization? Are they even civilized? Will we ever know the answers? Well, one group of scientists claims that aliens are shielding us from the truth because mankind cannot cope with the reality of their existence.
