Seismic Waves

New research published in the journal Nature Geoscience analysed seismic waves from repeating earthquakes over the last six decades.

NASA announced on Monday that its InSight Mars lander had detected space rocks as they impacted the surface of the Red Planet. The robotic InSight lander tracked one space rock landing in 2020 and the other three in 2021, and all four were relatively modest in size, according to the US space agency. Researchers expect to find more data from the lan...

You can now eavesdrop on some of the world's largest earthquakes from deep inside the Earth, thanks to a new project that lets you see, hear and feel seismic waves created by massive temblors.

Looking into the world's "deepest mystery" with the help of seismic waves, researchers have found that the Earth's inner core has an inner core of its own, which has surprising properties that could reveal information about our planet.

A new way of assembling things, called metamaterials, may in the not too distant future help to protect a building from earthquakes by bending seismic waves around it.

A powerful 7.3-magnitude earthquake struck off the coast of Antarctica on Monday, generating large waves but causing no injuries, seismic experts at Argentina's Orcadas base in Antarctica said.
