Romy Ash’s second novel, Mantle, asks what would happen if a pathogen made us wake up to ourselves – and change course.
Motion deep in the Earth called a mantle wave can lift up the toughest parts of our planet.
New research that offers valuable insights into the Earth’s mantle.
Scientists were not previously certain how the precious stones arrived at the Earth’s surface.
Mars’ core is larger and less dense than we thought.
Researchers used decades-old radar data and found that some low-lying areas of Venus’ crust are moving and jostling. This evidence is some of the strongest yet of tectonic activity on Venus.
Evidence from the Pilbara region suggests Earth in its youth behaved very differently to how it does today, and had more water within it than previously thought.
Earth’s magnetic field locks information into lava as it cools into rock. Millions of years later, scientists can decipher this magnetic data to build geologic timelines and maps.
New findings suggest the core has been leaking for the past 2.5 billion years, and that could help scientists understand how the core was formed.
Giant forces slowly move continents across a viscous layer of the Earth, like biscuits gliding over a warm toffee ocean. This stresses the continents, and twists and contorts the crust.
Scientists have used gravitational measurements from the low-flying Goce satellite to map the boundary between the earth’s…
