Scientists like to refer to our planet as residing in the “Goldilocks zone,” where it’s neither too hot nor too cold, and just the right distance away from the Sun to support life. But in the classic ...

Astronomers have announced the discovery of a new dwarf planet in our solar system, named 2017 OF201. Located far beyond Neptune, it orbits the sun every 25,000 years. When you purchase through links ...

Researchers caution that the Amazon rainforest could disappear in the next hundred years, due to the combined effects of climate change and deforestation, and a new model predicts how that could ...

About 4.5 billion years ago, a colossal impact between the young Earth and a mysterious planetary body called Theia changed everything—reshaping Earth, forming the Moon, and scattering clues across ...

Humanity has reached the first Earth system tipping point, the widespread death of warm-water coral reefs, marking the beginning of irreversible planetary shifts. As global temperatures move beyond ...

The Committee on Earth Science and Applications from Space (CESAS) provides an independent, authoritative forum for identifying and discussing Earth system science research requiring data from space ...

Astronomers recently detected a stray quasi-moon in our planet’s orbit, but it's hardly the first stowaway to hang out around Earth. Unlike the Earth's moon, quasi-moons are not gravitationally bound ...

While its star projector leaves a lot to be desired, the Science Can Solar System Planetary Projector is a fantastic educational tool for kids, with its solar system model, complete with talking ...

Earth’s slow axial wobbles—known as precession cycles—do not just shape long-term climate trends. A new study led by ...

The earth (and humanity) would be very different without our smaller red neighbor. In A Nutshell Computer simulations show ...
