Learn how nitrogen and helium end up in lunar soil, and why this helps us understand planetary habitability.
Lunar rocks are famously dry. They contain almost none of the volatile elements that easily escape into space, such as ...
The Earth's magnetic field and oxygen evolved together over 540 million years, according to a major NASA study.
Ever seen the northern lights? You have a magnetic layer in Earth’s atmosphere to thank for those beautiful displays. But the magnetosphere does a lot more than create auroras.
Our planet’s magnetosphere has seen dramatic shifts across its history—even total reversals—but this recent wrinkle doesn’t ...
Researchers at the University of Hawaiʻi Institute for Astronomy (IfA) are helping reshape how scientists study the sun. The ...
A planet's habitability is determined by a confluence of many factors. So far, our explorations of potentially habitable worlds beyond our solar system have focused exclusively on their position in ...
How do foxes know where to pounce when they can't see their prey? There's evidence they're using the Earth's magnetic field to help. Hosted by: Michael Aranda Huge thanks go to the following Patreon ...
Teams in France are assembling the core of ITER, the gigantic experiment that seeks to harness energy from fusion, similar to ...
Fantasizing about interplanetary exploration is a fun mental exercise, but the harsh realities of life (or lack thereof) in our Solar System is for good reason.
Students will face more competency-based questions, including case studies, data interpretation, source-based items, and ...
A research team at the Korea Institute of Materials Science (KIMS) has successfully developed Korea's first full-cycle magnetic cooling technology, encompassing materials, components, and modules.
