A new scientific revelation reveals that deep in the Earth’s core lies a good amount of hydrogen as well as a large amount of ...

Life on Earth may exist thanks to an incredible stroke of luck — a chemical sweet spot that most planets miss during their formation but ours managed to hit.

As much as 45 oceans’ worth of hydrogen may be in Earth’s core, scientists reported, suggesting most of Earth’s water was ...

Earth’s interior may be hiding a hydrogen cache so extensive that, under some modeled scenarios, its water-equivalent content could rival or exceed the volume of today’s surface oceans, reshaping ...

Parts of ancient Earth may have formed continents and recycled crust through subduction far earlier than previously thought.

New method reveals chemical signs of early microbial life in ancient Earth rocks, showing photosynthesis evolved much earlier than believed.

The experts can use these findings in their search for life on exoplanets with similar chemical profiles.

There are several theories about how the Earth and the Moon were formed, most involving a giant impact. They vary from a model where the impacting object strikes the newly formed Earth a glancing blow ...

An experiment to quantify the amount of the universe’s lightest element in Earth’s core suggests that the planet’s water has mostly been here since the beginning ...
