Earth Had Ring System Similar To Saturn Roughly 466 Million Years Ago: Study
Like Saturn, Earth may have also had its ring system circling the planet 466 million years ago, according to a study.

Scientists Discover New Electric Field in Earth’s Atmosphere Crucial for Life
Scientists have finally detected the long-predicted ambipolar electric field in Earth's atmosphere. Though weak, it plays a crucial role in shaping the planet’s upper atmosphere, impacting the polar wind and potentially contributing to Earth’s habitability. This discovery could help explain why Earth’s atmosphere has remained conducive to lif...

Chinese Rover Discovers Evidence Of 3.42 Billion Years Old Ocean On Mars
Like Earth and our solar system's other planets, Mars formed about 4.5 billion years ago. At the time the ocean apparently existed, it might already have begun its transition away from being a hospitable planet.

Dwarf Planet Ceres Once Hosted a Muddy Ocean Below Its Icy Surface
Recent research indicates that Ceres, the largest object in the asteroid belt, likely harboured a muddy ocean beneath its icy crust. Advanced computer simulations suggest that its surface features and gravity measurements point to a past rich in ice. With its proximity to Earth, Ceres presents a promising target for further exploration, making it t...

Bumble Bees Suffering From Loss of Smell After Heat Waves Struck the Planet Last Year, Finds Study
Extreme heat waves are not only a growing threat to humans but also to vital pollinators like bumble bees. A recent study published in the Proceedings of the Royal Society B reveals that heat waves can significantly impair bumble bees' ability to detect the scents of flowers they depend on for food. This discovery raises concerns about the potentia...

'Like a Mirror': Astronomers Identify Most Reflective Planet 260 Light Years From Earth
A scorching hot world where metal clouds rain drops of titanium is the most reflective planet ever observed outside of our Solar System, astronomers said on Monday. This strange world, which is more than 260 light years from Earth, reflects 80 percent of the light from its host star.

Bill Gates Invests In Start-Up That Aims To Stop Cow Burps To Tackle Climate Change
Animals like cows, goats and deers produce greenhouse gas, methane, when their stomachs break down hard fibres for digestion.

The Length of Earth’s Days Has Been Mysteriously Increasing, and Scientists Don’t Know Why
The length of a day on Earth is increasing, according to atomic clocks and precise astronomical measurements. Scientists have no idea why days are getting longer on the planet, a phenomenon that could impact not just timekeeping but also technology like GPS. Over millions of years, Earth’s rotation has been slowing down due to friction effects as...

Scientists Study Shrinking Mini-Neptunes to Understand Planetary Evolution
Scientists at Caltech have discovered four exoplanets — TOI 560b, TOI 1430.01, TOI 1683.01, and TOI 2076b – that appear to be shrinking in size and losing their atmosphere gradually. The rate at which this change is taking place suggests that these celestial bodies, called mini-Neptunes, will eventually lose their atmosphere completely to becom...

Tonga Eruption: Excess Water Vapour Blasted Into Atmosphere Could Warm Up the Planet for Years, Study Says
The Tonga-Hunga Ha’apai underwater volcano that erupted in the South Pacific in January injected 1,60,900 tonnes of additional water vapour into the stratosphere, according to researchers. The excess water vapour could heat up the planet for several years, a new study reveals.
