Scientists have long held that deep Earth processes such as volcanic eruptions and tectonic plate movements primarily shape surface conditions, driving events like the mass extinction 66 million years ago and climate transitions. However, a new study in Nature Communications reveals that solar radiation also penetrates deep into the Earth's interior.

NASA's Perseverance Mars rover has made what could be its most astonishing discovery to date: possible signs of ancient life on the Red Planet.
The six-wheeled robotic explorer came across an intriguing, arrow-shaped rock dubbed "Cheyava Falls" that may harbor fossilized microbes from billions of years ago, when Mars was a watery world.

The surface of Uranus' moon Ariel contains substantial carbon dioxide ice, particularly on its trailing hemisphere, the side that faces away from its orbital motion. This is unexpected as carbon dioxide, even in the distant Uranian system-20 times farther from the Sun than Earth-easily sublimates into gas and escapes into space.
