NASA research has shown that cell-like compartments called vesicles could form naturally in the lakes of Saturn's moon Titan.

Water is at the center of one of the enduring questions about how life first formed on Earth r.More specifically, where did the very first water molecules form, and how? In 2020, researchers at ...

In the 1990s, geologists discovered a thin layer surrounding Earth's outer core — a swirling ocean of liquid metal that surrounds the solid inner core. The layer, dubbed the E-prime layer, or E ...

With an abundant supply of liquid water, Earth is one of the few places in the universe where life can develop and flourish. But scientists have long wondered where exactly all of our life-giving ...

Scientists had assumed that the ice in space was purely amorphous, but new experiments show it can have a partly crystalline ...

Earth has so much sway in our little corner of the Solar System that the forming of water on the Moon is directly tied to its magnetic field. Now, scientists know even more about the importance of ...

Today, more than 70% of Earth is covered in liquid water. But long before the sea became a familiar feature of our planet’s surface, the water that now fills our oceans, lakes, and streams was ...

Scientists suggest microlightning in water droplets could have sparked the creation of Earth's earliest organic molecules. The new research, published in Science Advances, builds upon the landmark ...

A new series of experiments has shown that the mysterious "E-prime layer," which surrounds Earth's outer core, is created by water that leaks deep into our planet's interior.
