A new study was conducted to understand the precursors to the 2021 Fukushima Prefecture Offshore Earthquake (Mj = 7.3), which occurred on February 13, 2021, off the coast of Fukushima, Japan, as an aftershock of the 2011 Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami. The investigation, led by Masashi Hayakawa and Yasuhide Hobara, focused on the Lithosphere-Atmosphere-Ionosphere Coupling (LAIC) channels and multi-parameter anomalies that occurred before the earthquake.

A very bright fireball was sighted over multiple U.S. states, including North Carolina and Tennessee, at around 05:15 UTC (00:15 LT) on Friday, August 30, 2024. The object broke up above the town of Altapass, North Carolina, producing energy equivalent to 10 tons of TNT. It is likely that meteorites have fallen in the Spruce Pine, Ingalls, and Altapass area.

Picture a time when prehistoric humans roamed the wetlands of what is now New Mexico, unaware that their everyday activities would leave a mark for us to study thousands of years later. The fossilized footprints discovered at White Sands National Park offer a rare glimpse into the lives of these ancient people, revealing stories that static bones and stone tools cannot tell.

In 2015, Samantha Hansen and a team of researchers from the University of Alabama and Arizona State University traveled to Antarctica to install 15 seismology stations. These stations allow researchers to study the interior of the planet. What they ultimately found were large mountain-like structures deep within the Earth. Mountainous...

Some of the Earth’s most “extreme features” have been discovered deep, deep underground, and scientists can’t work out what they are.The mysterious zones have the power to slow down seismic waves by up to 50 per cent, yet experts don’t know what they’re made of or what role they play.These strange black holes (figuratively speaking) are located within the Earth’s lower mantle – near the core – and are known as ultra-low velocity zones (ULVZs).They have traditionally been detected near hotspots – regions of the mantle where hot rock moves upwards, forming volcanic island chains like Hawaii – but new...

There’s a special kitchen at the bottom of the sea. Scientists are now closer to reconstructing how it whipped up early life, thanks to a massive 1.2-kilometer core that a ship drilled out from a Mount-Rainier-sized underwater mountain in the Atlantic Ocean.

A recent study published in Science Advances has unveiled that the Menga Dolmen, a 6,000-year-old megalithic burial mound in southern Spain, was constructed using “advanced engineering” techniques. Built between 3800 and 3600 BCE, this Neolithic monument is a single-chamber tomb, or dolmen, consisting of 32 massive stones that...

For the past several decades, the scientific community has been deeply invested in figuring out where the asteroid came from that caused the massive extinction of the dinosaurs about 66 million years ago. This significant event transformed Earth’s biodiversity and ignited a plethora of theories and discussions among researchers.

It's been more than four decades since former child star William “Billie” Thomas Jr. died in Los Angeles of a heart attack at only 49 on October 10, 1980. Best known as "Buckwheat," the character he portrayed in the original Hal Roach-ignited Our Gang/Little Rascals classic film shorts from 1934 to 1944, Thomas faced similar challenges and misfortunes of several of his co-stars and other former child actors. This is his story.

Scientists Drill 1,268 Meters Deep Under The Atlantic Ocean, Scooping Out Huge Piece Of Earth's Mantle

NASA scientists have discovered an electric field encompassing Earth’s atmosphere that is as “fundamental” as gravity — and could even give clues about possible life on other planets.

A team of NASA scientists detected the ambipolar electric field for the first time with a suborbital rocket 150 miles above Earth’s atmosphere, the space agency said.

The ambipolar electric field is a “weak, planet-wide electric field as fundamental as Earth’s gravity and magnetic fields” that lifts the sky and is responsible for the polar winds, NASA said



Although there have been theories about its existence for 60 years, the mission was the first time...

Astronomers have confirmed the existence of exoplanets with extremely small orbits around their stars. But what about exoplanets that get close enough to be devoured by their star, and what if it's an Earth-sized exoplanet?. This is what a recent study posted to the arXiv preprint server and accepted to...

A 40-year-old man has been sentenced to over 28 years in prison for distributing significant amounts of fentanyl and other controlled substances to dealers in the Middle Georgia region. Authorities revealed that investigators uncovered evidence linking the drugs provided by the defendant, 40-year-old Lagary Williams, also known as "Frog," from Atlanta, to a fatal overdose.
