An international team of marine geologists has found evidence for meteoric water flow at 2,625 feet (800 m) below sea level near the Lofoten archipelago...
Lunar orbiters recently detected water frost on the floor of some of the south polar craters, regions that are known to be very cold and can trap water....
Bathing 1-2 hours before bedtime in water of about 104-108.5 degrees Fahrenheit (40-42.5 degrees Celsius) can significantly improve the quality and efficiency...
A new analysis of data from NASA’s Operation IceBridge airborne science mission has revealed 56 previously uncharted subglacial lakes beneath the Greenland...
Planetary scientists have long observed water-ice clouds in the Martian middle atmosphere (18.6-37.2 miles, or 30-60 km, above the surface). Now, a University...
NASA’s Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy (SOFIA) observed the hyperactive Jupiter-family comet 46P/Wirtanen as it made its closest approach...
A team of researchers from Princeton University and Universities of Miami and Chicago has found drops of ancient seawater in the sediment cores from the...
Planetary researchers using data from the Shallow Radar (SHARAD) instrument on NASA’s Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter have discovered rich deposits of water...
A duo of researchers from the School of Earth and Space Exploration at Arizona State University has made the first-ever measurements of ancient water contained...
Using data from NASA’s Lunar Atmosphere and Dust Environment Explorer (LADEE), a team of researchers has discovered that water is being released from...
Mars is dry today, but numerous ancient rivers are found across the planet’s surface and their existence is a challenge to models of planetary climate...
Using data from the LAMP (Lyman Alpha Mapping Project) instrument aboard NASA’s Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter, planetary researchers have observed water...
Future manned trips to Mars will require on-site resources, including water, and planetary scientists from a project called ‘Subsurface Water Ice Mapping...
Pure ice is blue because ice absorbs more red light than blue light. Most icebergs appear white or blue when floating in seawater, but since the early...
Observations by ESA’s Mars Express orbiter show evidence of an ancient planet-wide groundwater system on the Red Planet.
Mosaic of the Valles Marineris...
Mars today is a cold, dry world, but it may not always have been so. Recent studies increasingly indicate that the planet once had a thicker, denser atmosphere...
Recent radar observations from ESA’s Mars Express spacecraft were interpreted as evidence for melting beneath the south polar ice cap of Mars. Now, a...
Acquisition of freshwater is problematic for sea snakes living in oceanic environments that are distant from sources of freshwater associated with land....
By analyzing several years of weather radar observations in Finland, a research team led by University of Helsinki scientists has discovered that planes...
Ancient inhabitants of Easter Island (Rapa Nui) built their famous statues (moai) and megalithic platforms (ahu) that supported them near the island’s...
