The discovery of a new lifeform within Earth’s crust has sent ripples through the scientific community, challenging our ...

In this video, I will guide you on how to create a beautiful diorama with the theme of Spider-Man vs Venom. What's special about this video is that I will share with you a little tip to help you ...

Earth's crust today has a surprisingly similar composition to the planet's first outer shell, or "protocrust," new research finds. This early rocky shell featured chemical signatures previously ...

Earth is the only known planet which has plate tectonics today. The constant movement of these giant slabs of rock over the planet's magma creates continents - and may have even helped create life.

In a new paper published in Nature today, colleagues and I reveal secrets of Earth’s crust 4.5 billion years ago.

When Earth was formed, it was a uniform ball of hot rock. Radioactive decay and leftover heat from the planet’s formation caused this ball to become even hotter. Eventually, after about 500 ...

Like most of us, Earth has a lot going on under the surface — even in what may have once seemed to be its most unassuming layer. The mantle, a zone between our planet’s thin crust and the ...

The model in the new study — the first 3D attenuation model for the entire mantle — will help seismologists to better understand what lies thousands of kilometers below Earth’s surface, said ...

Potential patches of Earth's ancient crust, sometimes called "sunken worlds," may have just been discovered deep within the mantle, thanks to a new way of mapping the inside of our planet.

The changing of Earth's crust is a topic that is still being studied. Plate tectonics as they are currently known likely occurred during the past billion years, according to a 2021 study.

To do so, the research team considered the North China Craton (NCC), western Pacific Ocean, since the middle Mesozoic (168 million years ago, Ma) using four-dimensional mantle flow models of Earth ...
