A flat Earther asks a seemingly devastating question: if Earth is spinning hundreds of miles per hour beneath an airplane, ...

If the Earth had an edge, I hope it would look like this. The edge of a flat Earth. I know, I know, we’ve talked about it before. But there’s something mesmerizing about it. A flat Earth solar eclipse ...

(Inside Science) — Earth might look like a sphere, but it’s actually an “oblate spheroid” — the planet is slightly squished, making the circumference of the equator bigger than the circumference ...

Universe Today has investigated the importance of studying impact craters, planetary surfaces, exoplanets, and astrobiology, and what these disciplines can teach both researchers and the public about ...

As the global temperature increases, Earth's oceans are experiencing a huge shift. In addition to commonly known effects, such as melting of ice caps and thermal expansion, there is an invisible ...

Our planet’s magnetosphere has seen dramatic shifts across its history—even total reversals—but this recent wrinkle doesn’t pose a threat to life Earth’s magnetic field surrounds the planet, with ...

When astronomers talk about directly imaging an exoplanet orbiting a faraway star, the analogy they most commonly use is trying to spot a firefly next to a massive searchlight. An Earth-like exoplanet ...

Over the last 485 million years, Earth has been both a lot colder and a lot hotter than once thought. A new temperature timeline that combines geologic data with computational simulations reveals a ...
