King Tutankhamun's legacy continues to fascinate, nearly a century after his tomb's discovery. Recent research unveils that ...

For years, scientists have puzzled over why Earth and Mars are missing certain key elements. Now, a fresh study suggests ...

REDEX Group can help design engineers achieve a step-change in the productivity of multi-task machines with its ...

Seventy percent of meteorites that hit Earth today can be traced back to only three families of asteroids a finding that overturns decades of hypotheses regarding the randomness of cosmic rubble and ...

The theory, known as planetary differentiation, describes how planets differentiate. The heavy metals, such as iron and nickel, descend to the core.

The core of the Red Planet may be filled with sulfur. New experiments have shown that the core of Mars formed much faster ...

A planetary interior is under high-pressure and high-temperature conditions and it has a layered structure. There are two important processes that led to that layered structure, (1) percolation of ...

The Earth's mantle displays a subchondritic S-34/S-32 ratio. Sulfur is a moderately siderophile element (i.e. iron-loving), and its partitioning into the Earth's core may have left such a distinctive ...

A new NASA study reveals a surprising way planetary cores may have formed—one that could reshape how scientists understand the early evolution of rocky planets like Mars.

Planetary differentiation is a key process in planet formation. It occurs when the materials composing a celestial body separate into distinct layers under the effects of heat and gravity. This ...
