That would make it thousands of times more massive than any moon orbiting a solar system plane  — so massive it could make ...

A geomagnetic reversal sounds like science fiction until the rock record says it has happened before. The real tension sits in the messy middle, when Earth’s magnetic shield can weaken and wobble, ...

I suppose the best way to talk about “it” is when we’re lying on our backs, looking up at the stars. The “it” I’m talking ...

New simulations show Mars plays a key role in shaping Earth’s long-term climate by influencing its orbit and axial tilt over hundreds of thousands to millions of years.

Climate can change fast, even when the planet looks stable. Earth has flipped into new patterns within decades in the past.

Study finds Mars helps pace Earth's ice ages through gravity. Remove Mars, and a major 2.4-million-year climate rhythm ...

Scientists have discovered more than 6,000 planets beyond our solar system. What if some of them aren't planets at all, but ...

How does Mars influence Earth’s climate cycles? This is what a recent study published in the Publications of the Astronomical Society of the Pacific | Space ...

At the start of the year, Earth will quietly reach a milestone in its orbit around the sun. Known as perihelion, this is the moment when our planet is closer to the sun than at any other point in the ...

Billions of years ago, Earth was an uninhabitable rock covered in magma. Scientists are still working to decipher the tale of how it transformed into a blue and green orb teeming with life. However, ...

Abstract: Because of the influence of wind, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) inevitably experience different degrees of wobble while flying. Considering the impact of effective apertures (EA) on the ...
