From these indirect observations, scientists have calculated that the scorchingly hot inner core, with temperatures ...

The Earth is made up of four major layers: the surface crust, the semi-molten mantle, a liquid metal outer core, and a solid metal inner core. When the movement of tectonic plates in the crust creates ...

The Earth is made up of the crust, the mantle, the outer core and the inner core. The inner core is solid and separated from the semi-solid mantle by the liquid outer core, which allows the inner core ...

A team of scientists led by Joanne Stephenson from the Australian National University, has made a groundbreaking discovery ...

The tangent cylinder is an imaginary structure that runs parallel to the axis around which Earth spins, and touches the points where the solid inner and liquid outer core meet at the equator.

A new study suggests Earth's inner core may be backtracking, following a 70-year cycle of speeding up and slowing down, ...

Starting at the surface, you would have to dig nearly 2,000 miles before reaching the Earth’s core. No one could survive that ...

The planet, with a mass about 1.9 times that of Earth, is orbiting the white dwarf about 4,200 light-years away from our ...

Satellite data revealed the Konya Basin in Türkiye is sinking due to crust dripping, where parts of Earth's crust fall into ...

Scientists have uncovered new evidence that suggests the moon might have a partially molten layer deep beneath its surface.

Astronomers have observed Jupiter's legendary Great Red Spot (GRS), an anticyclone large enough to swallow Earth, for at least 150 years. But there are always new surprises -- especially when NASA's ...
