A fossil from British Columbia, originally discovered in the 80s, has finally been identified as a new species named ...

Using computer simulations, the researchers uncovered a scenario in which an ancient asteroid impact briefly amplified that field, just long enough for nearby rocks to capture and record its magnetic ...

Scientists may have solved the mystery of why the moon shows ancient signs of magnetism although it has no magnetic field today. An impact, such as from a large asteroid, could have generated a cloud ...

While the moon once had a weak magnetic field generated by a small molten core, the team's research suggests it likely wouldn ...

A combination of a dynamo-generated magnetic field and massive impacts could explain the highly magnetized rocks in some ...

At the very edge of our solar system, beyond the grasp of Neptune and even past the icy sprawl of Pluto’s domain, a new ...

The Kinetica-1 rocket launched Wednesday for the first time since a failure doomed its previous attempt to reach orbit in ...

Can Mars become a second Earth? Explore the science, challenges, and future of terraforming Mars for human colonization.

One of the asteroids will come as close as within 120,000 miles from the Earth, soaring past at over 41,000 miles per hour.

Two new studies used gravity data to pull back the curtain on the deep interiors of the Moon and one of the solar system’s largest asteroids.

Pollen grains are far more than allergens – they are nature’s time capsules, preserving clues about Earth’s past environments ...
