Study Suggests Planet Earth Might Have Reached Its Limit
The study's findings emphasise the urgent need for sustainable practices and global cooperation to mitigate the ecological crisis.

Scientists Discover New Type Of Liquid Planet That Exists In A "Molten, Mushy State", Smells Like Rotten Eggs
The molten lava world is enveloped in a thick atmosphere rich in hydrogen sulfide, which would produce a powerful smell of rotting eggs.

New NASA Study Explains How Earth Got Its Water
A NASA study shows that meteorites delivered only a small amount of water to Earth over the past four billion years.

Why Venus Is the Brightest Morning Star Visible From Earth
Venus appears so bright in the sky due to reflective sulfuric acid clouds, its closeness to Earth, and sunlight scattering that creates optical effects like a glory.

TRAPPIST-1e Methane Signal Likely False, Webb Data Suggests Airless Planet
The TRAPPIST-1 planetary system, located about 39 light-years from Earth, hosts seven rocky worlds orbiting a cool red dwarf star. While several of these Earth-sized planets lie in the star’s habitable zone, new observations from the James Webb Space Telescope suggest their atmospheres may be too thin to support life. Earlier hints of methane aro...

NASA's Astronomers Reveal Red Giant Stars May Destroy Their Own Planets
This extreme expansion poses a serious threat to nearby planets. For example, when the Sun becomes a red giant in about 5 billion years, it will likely swallow Mercury and Venus.

Scientists Stunned as Earth’s Magnetosphere Shows Reversed Electric Charge Patterns
Scientists have discovered that Earth’s morning-side magnetosphere is negatively charged, overturning decades of assumptions about space electricity. Satellite data and simulations show the charge pattern flips near the equator but remains traditional at the poles. The breakthrough reshapes understanding of space weather and may also clarify elec...

Ryugu Samples Reveal Ancient Water Flow on Asteroid for a Billion Years
Microscopic samples from asteroid Ryugu reveal that liquid water once flowed through its parent body long after its formation. The finding, led by University of Tokyo scientists, suggests that such asteroids may have delivered far more water to early Earth than previously thought, offering a new perspective on how our planet’s oceans originated.

Astronomers Detect Hints Of Hidden Earth-Sized Planet Beyond Neptune
Astronomers propose the existence of ‘Planet Y’, a hidden Earth-size planet that may orbit closer than the theorized ‘Planet Nine’. Based on Kuiper Belt object patterns, the study suggests a rocky world influencing orbital tilts. Experts remain divided, but upcoming sky surveys could soon confirm or rule out its existence.

Not Like Venus Or Mars, Distant Exoplanet May Have Atmosphere Like Earth's
A distant exoplanet might have an atmosphere similar to Earth's, early observations from the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) suggest. It is part of a group of planets orbiting a star called TRAPPIST-1, about 40 light-years away from Earth.
