The formation and stabilization of Earth’s early continental crust marked a crucial step in planetary evolution, enabling long-term climate regulation and driving major shifts in global geochemical ...
Computational modeling shows that plate tectonics weren't necessary for early continents. The formation of Earth's continents billions of years ago set the stage for life to thrive. But scientists ...
New research sheds light on the earliest days of the earth's formation and potentially calls into question some earlier assumptions in planetary science about the early years of rocky planets.
The Earth system is unimaginably complex due to the abundance and diversity of life (from micro- to macro-organisms) intertwined with literally millions of organic and inorganic molecules and ...

Massive rift forming under the Pacific Northwest
Recent seismic research has unveiled a fascinating geological phenomenon occurring beneath the Pacific Northwest. The Earth’s crust is tearing apart, a process driven by tectonic forces in the region.
Polyester microdroplets, possible precursors to life, were formed from alpha-hydroxy acids (αHAs) in early Earth-like conditions even at low reaction volume, low reactant concentrations, and/or high ...
