Scientists announced earlier this week that they have discovered water inside tiny beads of glass scattered across the moon, suggesting that one day it could be extracted and used by the ...
Now, a theory proposed in a new study published in the journal Nature Astronomy hopes to explain this. In the study, researchers claim that electrons from Earth and the Sun are helping to create ...
An envelope. It indicates the ability to send an email. An curved arrow pointing right. The Earth may have helped give rise to water on the moon, scientists have found. A cosmic tail of invisible ...
High-energy electrons in the Earth's plasma may be contributing to the formation of water on the surface of the moon, a study found. The findings were published by a team of researchers, led by a ...
On March 9, 1979, Linda Morabito discovered a volcanic plume on Io, a moon of Jupiter, in one of the photos from Voyager 1.
Frigid areas on the moon where the sun never shines are younger than the craters they reside in and, according to new research, likely host less water ice than previously thought. These areas ...
Sep. 18, 2023 — A team recently calculated that most of the Moon's permanently shadowed regions (PSRs) are at most around 3.4 billion years old and can contain relatively young deposits of water ...
The sun lingers slightly above or just below the horizon, while towering mountains project dark shadows. Deep craters provide a haven for unending darkness. Some of these areas have been shielded ...
Matt Siegler, a planetary scientist at SMU, was digging into old data to figure out how hot it is under the moon’s surface when he came upon something surprising: evidence of a massive, ancient ...
The first Russian lunar mission in nearly half a century ended with a bang. The Luna-25, which left earth on August 10, crash-landed on the moon nine days later after an incident involving the ...
Researchers using data from the 1970s combined with modern algorithms revealed in a new study that a US space mission Apollo 17 — left behind by the astronauts on the lunar surface — may be ...
A shadowy harbour: Because the Sun strikes the Moon at such a low angle at its poles, sunlight never reaches the floors of some deep craters. These permanently shadowed regions trap volatile chemicals ...
