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 ...
Zare’s team demonstrated the existence of micro-lightning, very small electricity discharges that occur between tiny droplets ...
The leading explanation for all of these mysteries is known as the giant impact hypothesis. According to this story, when the solar system was just getting started, a Mars-size protoplanet named Theia ...
The research, conducted by scientists at Stanford University, demonstrates that when water droplets collide and form spray, ...
A new study by Rice University researchers Sho Shibata and Andre Izidoro presents a compelling new model for the formation of ...
The discovery that helium and iron can mix at the temperatures and pressures found at the center of Earth could settle a long ...
Scientists with a new theory about how Earth’s early continents formed predicted where a superold impact crater should ...
Researchers have discovered a 3.5-billion-year-old meteorite impact crater in Western Australia, providing new insights into ...
Water might have formed much earlier than previously thought. Computer simulations show supernovae produced significant ...
Study discovered that tiny electrical sparks, called microlightning, form when water droplets collide. These can create ...
A study shows that electrical charges in sprays of water can cause chemical reactions that form organic molecules from inorganic materials. The findings provide evidence that microlightning may have ...
