Scientists Predict Exact Date Life On Earth Will End: Study
A supercomputer simulation predicts that life on Earth will end in 1 billion years due to the depletion of oxygen caused by the Sun's increasing heat and brightness, ultimately rendering the planet uninhabitable.

NASA’s IMAP Spacecraft Prepares to Map the Solar System’s Edge
NASA’s Interstellar Mapping and Acceleration Probe (IMAP) has been delivered to the Astrotech facility near Kennedy Space Center for final preparations ahead of a tentatively planned launch in fall 2025. IMAP will map the heliosphere — the solar wind-driven bubble that shields our solar system from cosmic radiation. It is to orbit near Lagrange...

1 Trillion Species, 3 Billion Years: AI Helped Trace Bacteria Evolution On Earth
Bacteria consist of a single cell. They do not have bones and are not like big animals that leave clear signs in the geological record, which thankful palaeontologists can study many millions of years later.

"80 Years Of Lies": New Documentary Claims Presence Of Alien Life On Earth
A new documentary is causing a stir by asserting the presence of alien life on Earth and claiming a US government effort to hide information on possible extraterrestrial activity.

Microlightning in Water Droplets Could Explain the Origin of Life on Earth
Microlightning, tiny electrical discharges occurring in water droplets from crashing waves or waterfalls, may have played a crucial role in forming organic molecules necessary for life. A study published in Science Advances reveals that these sparks can create carbon-nitrogen bonds, challenging the long-standing Miller-Urey hypothesis. Led by Richa...

Fossil Evidence Shows Plants Survived the End-Permian Mass Extinction in China
Fossils discovered in China indicate that the End-Permian mass extinction, which wiped out 80% of life on Earth, may not have been as devastating for plants as previously thought. Researchers found evidence of gymnosperm forests and ferns in rock layers from this period, suggesting that some ecosystems remained intact. This discovery challenges ass...

Life on Mars? Studies Suggest Bacteria-Like Organisms Could Exist
New findings indicate that Mars' past conditions may have supported microbial life. Research draws parallels with extremophiles—microorganisms that thrive in extreme environments on Earth. Studies on bacteria like Helicobacter pylori suggest that if life exists on Mars, it might resemble resilient microbes found in human stomachs. Scientists cont...

Ancient Volcanoes May Have Helped Create Perfect Balance For Life On Earth
Latest findings suggest that the Earth's atmosphere went through a sequence of oxygenation episodes fueled by geological and biological interactions rather than a single event.

Curiosity Rover Finds Evidence of Liquid Water on Mars, Expanding Habitability Timeline
Reports from NASA’s Curiosity rover reveal evidence of ancient liquid water on Mars, challenging previous models. Images from Gale Crater show wave-like ripples, similar to Earth’s lakebeds. Scientists suggest the findings indicate Mars once had a denser atmosphere, which allowed liquid water to exist longer than previously believed. This disco...
