Cornell University researchers are constructing a library of basalt-based spectral signatures, examining chemical processes from Earth's hot mantle. This compilation aims to shed light on the composition of planets outside our solar system and potentially reveal water's presence on those exoplanets.
"When the Earth's mantle melts, it produces basalts," explained Esteban Gazel, professor of

The NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope has captured a compelling view of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) after its interaction with the Milky Way's gaseous halo. Despite the impact stripping away most of its surrounding gas halo, the LMC has retained enough material to continue forming new stars - a testament to its substantial mass and resilience.

Have you ever wondered about the timeline for our Sun's formation? An international team of scientists has moved closer to an answer through an experiment at GSI/FAIR's Experimental Storage Ring (ESR). They successfully measured the bound-state beta decay of fully ionized thallium (205Tl81+), offering new insights into the production of radioactive lead (205Pb) in asymptotic giant branch (AGB) s

Solar flares, some of the most powerful phenomena in the solar system, offer a unique chance to explore the Sun's atmospheric layers. Utilizing NASA's Interface Region Imaging Spectrograph (IRIS), which operates in the far ultraviolet (FUV) range, researchers can closely examine molecular hydrogen (H2) emissions that occur during these energetic events. These emissions, originating near the boun
