Sunscreen is an important part of skin care year-round -- especially in the summer, when we tend to be outside more often in more intense sun. Mineral sunscreens are a chemical-free sunscreen that ...

Mineral sunscreens contain zinc oxide, titanium dioxide, or both. Those ingredients act as a shield. When UV rays hit your skin, mineral sunscreens physically deflect them; they “bounce” off.

Mineral sunscreen, also sometimes called physical sunscreen, “works similarly to a shield, sitting on the surface of your skin and deflecting the sun’s rays,” says Dr. Westbay.

Even though Mars is now a cold and dry world, it once hosted rivers, lakes, and possibly vast oceans. Robotic missions search for traces of this past. Some discoveries take years, while others, like ...

The researchers also identified a mineral called spinel. Here on Earth, spinel is a magnesium aluminum gemstone. How the spinel got into the kaolinite rocks is unknown, but the researchers believe it ...

Kaolinite and spinel: valuable clues Kaolinite, a clay mineral, is a key marker of warm and humid environments. On Earth, it forms in tropical or hydrothermal conditions, often conducive to life. Its ...

The rocks also contain spinel, a magnesium-aluminum oxide mineral. Like kaolinite, spinel usually forms in igneous or metamorphic environments and is often found in sediment. Wiens’s team remains ...

These rocks were also found to contain spinel, likely aluminum spinel, which can form either in an igneous or a metamorphic environment, and can be found as remnants in sedimentary rocks. Wiens and ...
