Far beneath the Atlantic Ocean, about 1,000 kilometers off Portugal’s coast, lies a colossal underwater canyon system that ...
"Our results represent the most globally complete understanding of recent lunar tectonism to date," Nypaver said. "The ...
Scientists have mapped thousands of young tectonic ridges across the Moon, showing it is still slowly shrinking. These ridges may mark previously unknown sources of moonquakes.
Deep earthquakes often relax faster compared with those that rupture close to the surface.
For years, scientists have known about lobate scarps — ridges commonly found in the lunar highlands that formed as the Moon contracted. In 2010, earlier research confirmed that the Moon is gradually ...
Scientists have produced the first global map and analysis of small mare ridges (SMRs) on the moon, a characteristic ...
Researchers have uncovered more than a thousand previously unknown tectonic ridges across the Moon’s dark plains, showing the ...
New research reveals the source of this carbon – and the driving forces behind it – are far more complex than previously ...
Last Saturday at 9:49am local time, a magnitude 5.6 earthquake occurred about 50km west of Gympie in Queensland. The earthquake was experienced as strong shaking locally, but did not produce any ...
Scientists have produced the first global map and analysis of small mare ridges (SMRs) on the moon, a characteristic geological feature of tectonic activity. Published in The Planetary Science Journal ...
