It feels like there have been staggering science stories emerging every other day recently, all of which have blown our tiny little minds. First, there was the discovery of a terrifying black hole ...

Comet 12P/Pons Brooks shows a D/H water ratio matching Earth’s oceans, revealed through ALMA and NASA IRTF observations.

Chemical profiling traces the source of water in one of the brightest known comets to keep returning to the Solar System.

Our new results provide the strongest evidence yet that at least some Halley-type comets carried water with the same isotopic ...

Other hidden water sources within Earth’s crust While the ringwoodite-bound ocean is undoubtedly the most significant discovery, it’s not the only hidden water source within our planet.

Water is constantly leaking through Earth's crust and toward the outer core as tectonic plates subduct under one another, while magma rises via a similar pathway in the opposite direction.

For starters, despite looking like a shapeless solid, ice is actually made up of multiple nanoscopic crystals, all of which are only a few billionths of a meter across, if that.

A new analysis of ancient grains of crystal embedded in rock from the Australian outback suggests Earth had dry land and fresh water some 4 billion years ago — a time when scientists had thought ...

But what is revealed deep inside the Earth surprises laymen and scientists alike: Almost 3000 kilometers below the Earth's surface, solid rock is flowing that is neither liquid, like lava, nor ...

Water leaking into the Earth may be wrapping the core in crystals, a study has suggested. The study may help explain a weird area in the outer core that has long puzzled scientists.
