Measurements of seismic waves over many years suggest the Earth's core is deformed and reshaped by conditions of extreme heat and pressure.
Astronomers have detected an exoplanet candidate around a Sun-like star just 146 light-years away from us.
An exoplanet called HD 137010 b might be the closest thing astronomers have ever seen to “Earth 2.0.” The trouble is that it’s only been seen once—and may never be glimpsed again

NASA alerts Earth to asteroid that could be on a collision path
NASA’s latest alert about a near‑Earth asteroid has revived a familiar mix of anxiety and curiosity about what would happen if a space rock really were on a collision course with our planet. The agency’s own data show that the risk of a serious impact in any given decade is small but not zero,
The space rock is hurtling through our cosmic backyard at a zippy 26,200 miles per hour, according to the space agency.
These chemical oddities may explain why Earth seems to be deficient in certain elements — and could prove useful in catalysts and more.
The concept of a digital twin as a dynamic replica of a physical system is being adopted in many fields of science and industry to simulate and optimise performance, as computers become more powerful and AI helps them to make sense of vast data flows.
