Scientists in Brazil have uncovered evidence of a previously unknown impact event recorded in hundreds of glassy fragments scattered across the country.
In northeast Ethiopia, the rift shoved continental plates apart by 25 feet in just a few days, completely shocking ...
Far beneath the Atlantic Ocean, about 1,000 kilometers off Portugal’s coast, lies a colossal underwater canyon system that ...
Scientists have mapped thousands of young tectonic ridges across the Moon, showing it is still slowly shrinking. These ridges may mark previously unknown sources of moonquakes.
When we think of ice on Mars, we typically think of the poles, where we can see it visibly through probes and even ...
THE Moon’s “skin” is cracking as Earth’s lunar pal SHRINKS, scientists say. Rather than being a dead rock whizzing around Earth, our neighbouring moon is still active – ...
The Moon, long treated as a geologically inert relic, is still contracting and cracking. A growing body of peer-reviewed research now confirms that tectonic faulting on the lunar surface has occurred ...
Researchers have created the first worldwide map and detailed study of small mare ridges (SMRs), subtle geological features that signal tectonic ...
Researchers have uncovered more than a thousand previously unknown tectonic ridges across the Moon’s dark plains, showing the ...
The map unveils small mare ridges, geologically young features that will aid the selection of landing sites for future Moon missions.
Scientists have produced the first global map and analysis of small mare ridges (SMRs) on the moon, a characteristic geological feature of tectonic activity. Published in The Planetary Science Journal ...
