Europa is one of Jupiter’s 95 moons, and, perhaps, among the planet’s most famous orbiters. It’s covered in a shell of ice ...

In an eye-opening study, researchers have discovered that human activities, particularly groundwater pumping, are causing a significant shift in Earth's physical orientation. The findings, now making ...

"We're not saying, and we can't say, that there's no life in Europa. What we're saying is that it's a harder proposition, ...

Scientists have captured magnetic signatures from Earth's ocean tides in the finest detail yet. These faint signals, which certain satellites can detect when flying at very low orbits, may hold clues ...

A trio of heliophysicists and satellite trackers at NASA Goddard Space Flight Center and the Goddard Planetary Heliophysics Institute at the University of Maryland has found evidence showing that ...

Scientists have found that extreme solar activity drastically compresses the magnetosphere and modifies the composition of ions in near-Earth space. They are now looking to model how these changes ...

WASHINGTON, March 4, 2025 – Seismology has revealed much of the basics about earthquakes: Tectonic plates move, causing strain energy to build up, and that energy eventually releases in the form of an ...

When we talk about climate change, we tend to focus on its more tangible effects: extreme heat, ocean warming, melting glaciers, and so on. But anywhere from 500 meters to a few kilometers beneath our ...
