A recent study reveals dynamic transformations in Earth's lower mantle, impacting both earthquakes and the magnetic field.

As the iron and nickel inside our planet shift, so does Earth's magnetic field, meaning the North (and South) Poles are also ...

A new study published in National Science Review reveals that the asthenosphere plays an active role, rather than being passively involved as previously expected, in modulating seafloor spreading at ...

Researchers have made a significant advancement in understanding Earth's inner core, revealing new insights that could ...

The global mid-ocean ridge, with a total length over 65,000 km, is the longest volcanic chain on Earth. Hot magmas are extracted from the upwelling ...

Astronomers may have figured out where the mysterious blobs embedded in Mars' mantle originated.

Two recent studies used seismic data from NASA's retired InSight mission to shed light on what lies beneath Mars’ surface and what that means for the planet’s history ...

These shifts, detected by orbiting satellites, hint at dynamic processes thousands of kilometers beneath the surface that ...

Seismic studies reveal Mars may have a solid inner core. The result deepens knowledge of its evolution and lost magnetic ...

Mars is not the pristine, stratified world that people once imagined it is a graveyard of shattered worlds, their shattered remnants encapsulated deep in its mantle for over four billion years. It is ...

The researchers' findings were based on seismic readings from NASA’s InSight lander on Mars. Scientists were able to identify 8 Martian quakes with strong enough seismic activity that allowed them to ...

Scientists have discovered that Mars has an interior structure similar to Earth's. Results from Nasa's Insight mission suggest that the red planet ...
