The Earth's magnetic field and oxygen evolved together over 540 million years, according to a major NASA study.

Time is relative. The ticking of the clock, even of the most precise clocks we can make, does not exist in an absolute. It ...

An international research team may have found an explanation for seismic anomalies, the noticeable deviations in the behavior ...

New research reveals that Earth’s solid inner core is actually in a superionic state, where carbon atoms flow freely through ...

Chinese researchers have discovered that interstitial carbon in iron-carbon alloys behaves in a superionic, liquid-like state ...

Earth's core is rich with gold, and it's leaking out through the mantle and into the crust, new research has found. A new study of isotopes found in the volcanic rock that oozed out from deep under ...

Researchers have found evidence that Earth's core is leaking gold and other precious metals, according to a new study. The vast majority (99.9%) of Earth's gold and other precious metals are hidden in ...

Deep beneath our feet, at a staggering depth of over 5,100km, lies Earth's inner core — a solid ball of iron and nickel that plays a crucial role in shaping the conditions we experience on the surface ...

Gold and other precious metals are leaking from Earth’s core into the layers above, eventually making their way up to the surface during the formation of volcanic islands like Hawaii, a new study ...

Deep inside Earth, researchers see signs that the solid inner core may be arranged in multiple chemical layers far below.
