There may be hidden layers to Earth’s core dictated by chemical composition. In A Nutshell Lab experiments suggest Earth’s ...

Earth’s surface environment hosts large reservoirs of hydrogen (H, mainly in the form of water, H2O), nitrogen (in atmospheric N2) and carbon (mainly in carbonate rocks). H, N and C are sometimes ...

JWST observations of the ultra-hot super-Earth exoplanet TOI-561 b provide the strongest evidence to date for an atmosphere ...

The Earth’s inner core, predominantly composed of iron with a minor admixture of nickel and light elements, is a critical component in understanding our planet’s magnetic field and thermal evolution.

Researchers have detected a thick atmosphere around a planet called 55 Cancri e, which is twice as big as Earth and classified as a super Earth. The atmosphere of 55 Cancri e consists of carbon ...

Continental clues: Modern continental rocks carry chemical signatures from the very start of our planet’s history, challenging current theories about plate tectonics. Researchers have made a new ...
