The discovery that inert helium can form bonds with iron may reshape our understanding of Earth’s history. Researchers from ...

Scientists have uncovered surprising evidence that helium, a gas long thought to be chemically inert, may actually bond with ...

These results suggest that similar reactions between helium and iron may have occurred within Earth’s core shortly after its formation, trapping much of the primordial helium-3 in the material that ...

The energy is derived from the center of the Earth, but scientists are certain the core is very, very slowly cooling off. Keeping the center of the Earth hot are two sources of “fuel ...

A major scientific breakthrough has settled a decades-old debate about the moon’s interior. Researchers have confirmed that ...

Giant regions of the mantle where seismic waves slow down may have formed from subducted ocean crust, a new study finds.

A groundbreaking study reveals that the Moon has a solid inner core with a density comparable to iron, reshaping our ...

Scientists confirm the Moon has a solid iron core, like Earth’s, with a molten outer layer. This discovery reshapes our ...

Barnard's Star is a small, dim star, of the type that astronomers call red dwarfs. Consequently, even though it is one of the ...

Consequently, even though it is one of the closest stars to Earth, such that its light takes only six years to get here, it ...
