Researchers at Ruhr University Bochum, Germany, have developed two plasma processes that could be used to produce hydrogen and steel without emitting ...

This bungalow in Austin “honors its 1939 roots while feeling fresh, intentional, and tailored for modern living, with a ...

By Sonia Fernandez, UCSB Researchers continue to build on a body of evidence for a fragmented comet that is thought to have exploded over the Earth almost 13,000 years ago, […] ...

We aren’t sure what [theglassman] is working on, but based on his recent projects, we think it is probably something interesting. He’s been decapping ICs, growing oxide on silicon ...

Up to 98 percent of the energy of an earthquake goes into flash heating rocks, not shaking the ground, new research shows. The finding could help yield better earthquake forecasts ...

The shaking produced by an earthquake can crack the ground, bring down buildings and cause massive rockfalls. All this destructive power is, astoundingly, just a fraction of a quake’s overall energy.

On a trip to Yellowstone National Park back in August, I came to a stop at the turnoff for Firehole Lake Drive, where I had hoped to cruise through an active thermal area with geysers and hot springs.

Switzerland's Gries Glacier is retreating at an alarming pace as climate change accelerates unprecedented ice melt across the country. Fiona Jones has more. Social media car stunt challenges turn ...

Nearly 13,000 years ago, a vast, hurtling fragment of a comet exploded over the US, according to a controversial theory. Now, scientists have found evidence of this cataclysmic event.

Rising temperatures of the world's oceans threaten to accelerate the melting and splintering of glaciers—thereby potentially increasing the number of icebergs and, with it, the need to better ...

Antarctic ice is melting. But exactly which forces are causing it to melt and how melting will influence sea level rise are areas of active research. Understanding the decay of ice shelves, which ...
