Crystal gems found in extreme igneous rocks could form within hours, study suggests
Researchers from Rice University in Texas and the University of California, Riverside have found that gems can grow within hours inside extreme igneous rocks called pegmatites, instead of the thousands of years they usually take to form. In a study published in the journal Nature, the researchers described how they examined sample crystals from a pegmatite mine in Southern California. Using […]

Amazing Earth: The planet’s magnetic poles can flip more frequently than originally thought
Earth is wrapped by a magnetic field powered by the churning of hot molten metals in the outer core. Thanks to this invisible field, the planet is protected from the solar wind and cosmic particles, permitting just enough radiation to tide humans by. This magnetic field, however, can flip and does so many times every million years or so, […]

Study: Plate tectonics that shifted continents across Earth started at least 2.5 billion years ago
Plate tectonics is the widely accepted theory that the outer shell of the Earth is divided into several pieces, known as plates. These plates slowly glide across the Earth’s mantle, the rocky inner layer above the planet’s core. This movement causes both earthquakes and the movement of continents across the surface of the Earth. Scientists have […]

Study: New radioactivity model indicates lost continents of early Earth, challenging current models
Current geological models of Earth’s past tend to assume that the seven continents as we know them have been consistent throughout out planet’s history. A recent study, however, has called that into doubt, hinting at the possibility that other continents may have come and gone in our planet’s prehistoric past. Scientists at the University of Adelaide in Australia have published […]

Mesmerized by the ocean? To understand why the moon is where it is, start with Earth’s tides
As far as the human race remembers, the moon has always been there. But how did it get up there in the first place – and what keeps it revolving around Earth? By firing lasers at artificial mirrors deployed on the moon, researchers have learned that Earth’s satellite is drifting away at the rate of […]

More evidence found of devastating asteroid strike 13,000 years ago
Could a huge asteroid hit our planet and cause mass devastation? As much as we’d like to think this type of occurrence is confined to science fiction, new evidence has been found pointing to a giant asteroid hit 12,800 years ago – and if it happened before, it could happen again. In South Africa, scientists […]

“Tree kill zone” in Yellowstone National Park hints at new magma activity below the surface
The massive amounts of magma slumbering beneath Yellowstone National Park stir anew. Researchers reported the appearance of a new thermal area in the park that killed off the plants in its vicinity. The area measured eight acres (3.2 hectares), enough to fit four soccer fields. It first appeared on infrared images taken by Landsat satellites […]

Mantle mystery: Geologists don’t know what to make of two continent-sized mountains found beneath the Earth’s crust
Did you know that there are enormous “blobs of masses” between your feet and the core of the Earth? While scientists know for certain that they exist, the purpose they serve continues to baffle them. These blobs are as wide as continents and are as high as Mount Everest. They are found at the bottom […]

New satellite data from NASA show how carbon links everything on Earth
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) has released satellite data gathered by the Orbiting Carbon Observatory-2 (OCO-2). This carbon dioxide-monitoring satellite has collected over two-and-a-half years’ worth of information that, according to NASA scientists, show how carbon links together everything on Earth. From human activities to weather hazards to biological processes, carbon is present […]

Understanding the global carbon cycle: Most CO2 is bound up in Earth’s core, which is why CO2 levels rise when continents move
Mainstream media would have you believe that the fluctuations in the carbon dioxide (CO2) levels in the atmosphere are completely man-made. They insist that technological advances as well as overpopulation have driven our planet to a state of crisis – one evidenced by a rapidly warming atmosphere. However, a basic understanding of the global carbon […]
