Ryugu’s samples reveal that water activity on asteroids lasted far longer than scientists thought, possibly reshaping ...

CI chondrites are the most water- and volatile-rich of meteorites, with compositions similar to space rocks like Ryugu and Bennu. They are very porous and 'wet', with up to 20 percent of their weight ...

A groundbreaking study of asteroid Ryugu has revealed something scientists never expected: water moved through its rocky ...

Scientists have found evidence of liquid water flowing through the asteroid Ryugu for over a billion years, challenging previous theories about water activity on asteroids.

According to a study conducted by University of Tokyo researchers, Ryugu maintained a "pristine record" of late water activity. By examining the lutetium and hafnium isotopes in their rock samples, ...

For billions of years, Earth's continents have remained remarkably stable, forming the foundation for mountains, ecosystems ...

A NASA probe orbiting an asteroid over 100 million miles from Earth will make a perilous attempt on Tuesday to snatch a sample from the celestial body’s rocky surface to bring home the space agency’s ...

If anything, this major flaw featured in Alien: Earth hints that the xenomorphs are a highly unpredictable species and bring chaos with them. Now that Hawley's series has featured an unlikely ...

New research reveals that Earth’s continents owe their stability to searing heat deep in the planet’s crust. At more than 900°C, radioactive elements shifted upward, cooling and strengthening the ...

There’s really only one proper way to celebrate September 21, and this year, CBS and the Recording Academy are making it happen. Fans will be able to mark the occasion with a special dedicated to the ...
