HIDDEN PLANET

A new study is the first to show how space weather can affect electricity consumption on Earth.

Many mysteries about the Earth would have remained secret for much longer without observations from eclipses.

Here’s what scientists aim to learn from this year’s total solar eclipse about the Earth to the sun.

Researchers have successfully created a compound critical for metabolism in all living cells, which is essential for energy production and regulation.

The next total solar eclipse won’t touch the Lower 48 states until 2044. That might be an excuse to make this rare occurrence even more memorable.

The most common behaviors were poking, hitting, hindering movement, body slamming, and pulling on another’s body part — all behaviors observed among humans, too.

A volcano system near Grindavík in southwestern Iceland began erupting Thursday, causing evacuations and closures. More volcanic activity is not out of the question.

The moon’s shrinking has been measurable, but small. It has contracted about 150 feet in circumference over the last few hundred million years.

The sun is approaching its maximum activity of its solar cycle this year, scientists say.

The damage could be anywhere from a crack in a building to a full collapse.

The moon is ever so slowly creeping away from Earth.

Octopus DNA reveals the collapse of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet may be nigh.

Scientists are gaining new insights into the solar wind, which played a role in the loss of water from Mars and can disrupt communications systems on Earth.

The evidence lies in one of the largest volcanic provinces in the world, known as the Deccan Traps.

Three ‘super’ geomagnetic storms occurred in the past two centuries, revealing these large events are more common than researchers previously thought.

Seismometers, which measure the movement of the ground typically from earthquakes, can pick up the seismic waves from the thrashing ocean.

Recent earthquake activity at Campi Flegrei has stirred concerns that the volcano could super-strike again.

In one of the most direct links to risk taking behavior, some researchers found that people are more likely to gamble when the weather was better.
