The discovery that inert helium can form bonds with iron may reshape our understanding of Earth’s history. Researchers from ...

Earth’s core could contain helium from the early solar system. The noble gas tucks into gaps in iron crystals under high pressure and temperature.

These results suggest that similar reactions between helium and iron may have occurred within Earth’s core shortly after its formation, trapping much of the primordial helium-3 in the material that ...

A weak magnetic field likely attracted matter inward, contributing to the formation of the outer planetary bodies, from ...

Giant regions of the mantle where seismic waves slow down may have formed from subducted ocean crust, a new study finds.

Scientists have uncovered surprising evidence that helium, a gas long thought to be chemically inert, may actually bond with ...

We may be starting to get a grasp on what kick-started life on Earth – and it could help us search for it on other planets ...

Giant regions of the mantle where seismic waves slow down may have formed from subducted ocean crust, a new study finds.

Professor Claudia Ratti explains about quarks and gluons, including the so-called Quark-Gluon Plasma, plus Quantum ...

Hello everyone! Full moon is tomorrow and although it’s called the Worm Moon, I personally prefer the term “Lenten Moon” ...

For this reason black holes are invisible to the eye, as lightless as the empty, dark space surrounding them. Scientists know they exist not because they can see an actual hole, b ...
