A new theory for how rocky planets form could explain the origin of so-called "super-Earths"—a class of Earth-like exoplanets.

The missing link isn’t a not-yet-discovered fossil, after all. It’s a tiny, self-replicating globule called a coacervate droplet.

Scientists have confirmed that a “stabilizing feedback” on 100,000-year timescales keeps global temperatures in check and habitable.

Perhaps the biggest hurdle to humankind’s expansion throughout the solar system is the prohibitive cost of escaping Earth’s gravity.

TBIRD has delivered terabytes of data at record-breaking rates of up to 100 gigabits per second — 100 times faster than in most cities,

Earth is currently in the midst of a mass extinction, losing thousands of species each year, new UC Riverside research suggests.

An unrecognized effect boosts or diminishes the Pacific cold tongue, likely impacting El Niño/La Niña events and North American weather

Chemical evolution was first proposed in the 1920s as the idea that life first originated with the formation of macromolecules.

These NEAs are part of an elusive population that lurks inside the orbits of Earth and Venus. One of the asteroids is the largest object.

Earth is as friendly to life as any planet could possibly be — or is it? If Jupiter’s orbit changes, Earth could become more hospitable.

The exoplanet is orbiting one of two small stars in a binary system located in the Draco constellation about 100 light-years from Earth.

The accepted view of Mars is red rocks and craters as far as the eye can see. That’s what scientists expected when they landed Perseverance.

Artificial protein reveals new clues about primordial chemical processes

Researchers found the martian origin of the 4.48-billion-year-old Black Beautymeteorite, whose origin is one of the oldest regions of Mars.

Scientists can use modern rocks, moon samples and meteorites to figure out when and how the Earth and moon formed over 4.6 billion years ago
