Plate tectonics give Earth its mountains, earthquakes, continental drift and maybe even helped give rise to life itself. But do other planets in the solar system have them too?

The asteroid, named 2022 CE2, is estimated by NASA 's Jet Propulsion Laboratory to be about 370 feet across, with JPL's Center for Near-Earth Object Studies (CNEOS) predicting that the asteroid could be anywhere between 295 and 656 feet in diameter.

A tiny asteroid loitering in a near-Earth orbit for a few months last year may have an intriguing origin on our moon. Its characteristics led scientists to ask: is it a chip off the old lunar block, making a pass by Earth for a visit?

"Once again, the temperature record has been shattered — 2024 was the hottest year since record keeping began in 1880."

NASA's TES-22 CubeSat launched with tech that speeds up satellite deorbiting to clear space debris. It carries technology to study the thermosphere and test solar activity’s impact on satellite operations.

A new way of measuring structures deep inside Earth has highlighted numerous previously unknown blobs within our planet's mantle. These anomalies are surprisingly similar to sunken chunks of Earth's crust but appear in seemingly impossible places.

So I grabbed my camera, ran outside, and looked up just as Mars was supposed to emerge from the Moon's curved horizon. Seen with the naked eye, the Moon's brightness far outshined Mars, casting soft shadows on a cold winter evening in East Texas.

Three-million-year-old tools found in Kenya reveal early humans' ability to cut food, butcher meat, and adapt to new diets.

“We have a strong indication that the uppermost 2,480 meters contain a climate record that goes back to 1.2 million years in a high-resolution record where up to 13,000 years are compressed into one meter of ice,” Julien Westhoff from Copenhagen University said in a press statement.

This week, uncover some of the oldest ice on Earth, follow a dinosaur highway, learn how Pluto sealed the capture of its moon Charon with a “kiss,” and more.

China has announced plans to build a giant solar power space station, which will be lifted into orbit piece by piece using the nation's brand-new heavy lift rockets.

Former Formula 1 commentator Will Buxton has made a bold claim about IndyCar after signing a deal to become a FOX pundit.
