  • Ice Volcanoes and More: Dwarf Planet Ceres Continues to Surprise

    Ice Volcanoes and More: Dwarf Planet Ceres Continues to Surprise
    The dwarf planet Ceres is a complex and active world unlike any other place in the solar system, new research suggests. Observations by NASA's Ceres-orbiting Dawn spacecraft indicate that "ice volcanos" have erupted on the dwarf planet in the recent past and that Ceres' crust is an odd ice-rock mixture that has never been observed before, scientists reported in a series of six new studies published online today (Sept. 1) in the journal Science. "When we got to Ceres, we were expectin..

  • Oldest fossils on Earth discovered in 3.7 billion-year-old Greenland rock

    Oldest fossils on Earth discovered in 3.7 billion-year-old Greenland rock
    If confirmed, the fossils are 220 million years older than any previously found, providing tangible evidence of ancient living organisms that offer potential clues about similar life on Mars.The researchers, who published their findings in the journal Nature, believe that the fossils are stromatolites -- mound-like structures produced by photosynthetic bacteria. The microscopic bugs formed colonies on the sea floor, depositing carbonates and combining with sediment to make mounds that were event..

    A glorious solar eclipse made its way across the African sky early this morning (Sept. 1). As the moon crossed the sun's face, the two created a "ring of fire" that glowed in the sky for about 3 minutes. Viewers from Gabon to Tanzania to Madagascar could see the annular solar eclipse, with the moon crossing the sun front and center. At least a partial solar eclipse, in which the moon appears to have taken a bite out of the sun, was visible from most of Africa.  The rest of the world ..
