In this week's Science for All newsletter, Divya Gandhi explains how water shaped Earth’s evolution three billion years ago ...

Earth's surface is the living skin of our planet—it connects the physical, chemical and biological systems. Over geological time, this surface evolves. Rivers fragment the landscape into an ...

Stars that pass by our solar system have altered the long-term orbital evolution of planets, including Earth, and, by extension, modified our climate. "Perturbations—a minor deviation in the course of ...

A new SwRI-led paper highlights the scientific progress made in understanding the evolution of terrestrial planets, including the effects of late large impacts on pre-existing modes of tectonics. For ...

Ancient asteroid impacts may have done more than reshape Earth's surface—they could have helped spark life itself. New computer models show the collisions created enormous underground hydrothermal ...

Late-stage planetary collisions reshaped Earth and its neighboring planets, delivering water, altering their atmospheres, and influencing their tectonics. New findings suggest these violent impacts ...

Watch the Earth's tectonic plates grow, shrink, and jostle for position in this new model of the last billion years on the ...
