In 2024, researchers transformed readings of an epic upheaval of Earth's magnetic field flipping 41,000 years ago into an eerie, auditory experience.

The source of Earth's water is one of the most compelling questions facing scientists. Earth's habitability depends on multiple factors, but water is the basis for life, and it had to come from somewhere. Did comets and meteorites deliver it after Earth forme…

Two meteorites found in the Sahara in 2023 might be from Mercury, a study suggests, but doubts remain due to how little is known about the planet closest to the sun.

Pepper, a feline owned by virologist John Lednicky, recently discovered orthoreovirus on a dead rodent.

7% of Earth's Martian material goes up for auction at a prestigious auction house this week. The estimate? $2-4 million in Earth money.

"Nobody had noticed before that this was largely happening in triples!"

Meteorite NWA 16788 traveled roughly 140 million miles to get here, crash-landing in the Sahara Desert.

Scientists have uncovered the incredible journey of the Inaccessible Island rail, the world's smallest flightless bird, revealing how it traveled over 2,000 miles from South America to a remote island.

NASA research has shown that cell-like compartments called vesicles could form naturally in the lakes of Saturn's moon Titan.

In new research, University of California, Irvine astronomers describe how more than 200 known exoplanets are likely much larger than previously thought. It's a finding that could change which distant worlds researchers consider potential harbors for extrater…

Neutrinos are cosmic tricksters, paradoxically hardly there but lethal to stars significantly more massive than the sun.

Researchers may have found our galaxy's missing companions, further bolstering science's most widely accepted cosmological model.

15,000 kilometers of ancient riverbeds have been found on Mars, hinting at a wet and potentially life-supporting past.

Since then, a multitude of spacecraft have rocketed Marsward from a variety of nations.
