Earth's climate system is now retaining an average of 1 million excess nuclear bombs worth of energy every single day - a 4X increase since 2000. That excess heat is super charging storms, melting ice ...

This effort, using NASA's THEMIS dataset, will significantly enhance the prediction of geomagnetic storms, which can disrupt Earth's communication and security systems. Led by the University of ...

Simpson and Chen ran mathematical models looking at how differently sized Earth-like worlds would have affected the rest of our Solar System. The planet sizes tested were 1 percent of Earth's mass, ...

By analysing... Scientists have proposed that Earth may once have had a ring system similar to Saturn’s, formed by an asteroid breakup 466 million years ago. This ring may have triggered global ...

NASA and its partners recently tested an aircraft guidance system that could help planes maintain a precise course even while ...

The department “Earth System Modelling” investigates the movement and chemical composition of atmospheric air and the associated energy and mass fluxes with the help of numerical simulation and ...

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?

A recently released animation shows a new look at a large asteroid that has a small, but significant, chance of impacting ...
