Earth's Magnetic North Pole Is On The Move, This Is How Far It Has Shifted
British scientists have recently revealed that Earth's magnetic north pole is drifting towards Russia at an accelerated speed and is now closer to Siberia than it was five years ago.

Massive Ice Age Landforms Found Under North Sea Provide Key Insights into Ancient Glaciers
Scientists have uncovered massive ice age landforms buried deep beneath the North Sea, revealing patterns of a colossal ice sheet that existed 1 million years ago. Using high-resolution sound wave imaging, researchers discovered features indicating a single, large ice sheet that shaped the region’s landscape. These findings provide new perspectiv...

Astronomers Spot Hundreds of Hidden Supermassive Black Holes Using Infrared
Hundreds of hidden supermassive black holes have been identified using infrared observations, offering fresh insights into their role in galaxy formation. Researchers relied on data from NASA's Infrared Astronomical Satellite (IRAS) and the Nuclear Spectroscopic Telescope Array (NuSTAR) to detect emissions from black holes obscured by thick clouds ...

Scientists Uncover New Hidden Process That May Explain Earthquake Triggers
A new study has revealed a hidden mechanism that could explain how creeping stress along tectonic plates can lead to catastrophic earthquakes. The research, involving laboratory experiments with plexiglass, found that slow, aseismic movements at fault lines can build up energy. Once a critical point is reached, the energy is released suddenly, trig...

Oxygen Production Discovered in Deep-Sea Metal Nodules, Researchers Investigate
Scientists have made a groundbreaking discovery in the deep ocean, where oxygen is being produced by metal nodules found on the seafloor. This surprising process, which occurs in total darkness, challenges the long-held belief that oxygen is only generated through sunlight and photosynthesis. The research team, led by Prof Andrew Sweetman from the ...

Scientists Uncover 'Sunken Worlds' Deep in Earth’s Mantle, Defying Geological Expectations
A new study has uncovered unusual anomalies deep within Earth's mantle, resembling sunken crustal slabs in unexpected locations. Using advanced full-waveform inversion, scientists were able to map these structures, revealing hidden patterns that challenge current geological understanding. These anomalies were discovered far from tectonic activity z...

These Metallic Rocks Produce 'Dark' Oxygen: What It Means
The metallic rocks release electrical charge that splits the seawater into oxygen and hydrogen through electrolysis.

NASA's TESS Discovers Fastest Disintegrating Planet Ever Seen: What You Need to Know
NASA’s TESS has observed the closest and fastest disintegrating planet, BD+05 4868 Ab, located 141 light-years away. The planet loses a moon’s mass every million years as it is bombarded by its host star. Scientists are examining its massive dust trails, offering rare insights into the composition of terrestrial exoplanets. Researchers from MIT...

Massive Water Reservoir Discovered Beneath Oregon Cascades, Twice the Size of Lake Mead
A large hidden aquifer, holding more than twice the water volume of Lake Mead, has been discovered beneath the Oregon Cascades. Scientists found the water, stored in volcanic rocks, has the potential to impact both water usage and volcanic activity. Researchers stress the need for further studies on how climate change could affect this reservoir, w...

Study Finds Coronal Loop Flickers Could Predict Solar Flares Hours in Advance
NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory has revealed a potential breakthrough in predicting solar flares. Scientists observed brightness fluctuations in coronal loops—plasma structures in the Sun's atmosphere—that intensify hours before solar flares occur. This discovery, with a prediction accuracy of 60–80%, may provide 2–6 hours of advance warn...

Scientists Say Earth's Mantle Is Split Into Two Halves. Here's Why
Scientists say that the mantle is split up into two domains- the African and the Pacific that emerged when the supercontinent Pangaea broke apart.

Mysterious 5,000-Year-Old 'Stonehenge Of The East' Drifting, Scientists Finally Reveal Why
As per a study, the tectonic plates in the area around Golan Heights shift between 0.3 and 0.6 inches every year.

"Major Mystery": Scientists Discover "Sunken Worlds" Under Pacific Ocean
Scientists have discovered potential patches of Earth's ancient crust, sometimes called the "sunken worlds", deep within the mantle, all thanks to a new way of mapping the interior of our planet.

PM Modi Urges Scientists To Develop Warning System For Earthquakes
Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday urged scientists to develop warning systems for earthquakes while noting that advanced weather forecasts have significantly reduced casualties and minimised economic losses caused by cyclones.

Mars Satellite Images Reveal Giant 'Kidney Beans,' Sparking Hints of Water and Life
NASA's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter captured images of frozen sand dunes in Mars' northern hemisphere, revealing unique formations halted by carbon dioxide frost during winter. Unlike Earth's desert dunes, which shift with wind, these Martian dunes remain stationary until spring thaw releases their icy grip. Scientists study these features to unders...
