A volcanic reef has been discovered near site of the Titanic, after years of being shrouded in mystery. Nearly three decades ago, veteran Nautile submersible pilot and Titanic diver PH Nargeolet ...
In the remote expanse of the South Atlantic, two volcanic islands—Candlemas and Vindication—lie obscured by the persistent cloud cover that often shrouds their rugged terrain. The latest study by NASA ...
Scientists have discovered that shear forces inside rising magma can create gas bubbles long before pressure drops occur. The intensity of a volcanic eruption is shaped by how many gas bubbles develop ...
Analysis of the second confirmed interstellar comet to visit our solar system suggests that the alien body could be covered ...
For decades, volcanologists believed that the primary trigger for explosive eruptions was a drop in pressure as magma rises toward the surface. When pressure falls, gases dissolved deep within the ...
An immense volcanic ash cloud from Ethiopia's Hayli Gubbi eruption is heading towards India, potentially causing hazy skies and flight disruptions. T ...
The characteristics of volcanoes scattered across the Korean Peninsula and Northeast Asia, including Baekdu Mountain, Halla ...
Stephen has degrees in science (Physics major) and arts (English Literature and the History and Philosophy of Science), as well as a Graduate Diploma in Science Communication. Stephen has degrees in ...
MICHIGAN – Ice volcanoes. Yes, they are a thing. While they don’t spew lava like the volcanoes often making news headlines, this winter phenomena is quite literally a cool sight to see. Along the ...
Some scientists think we can better understand volcanoes by learning how the gaseous vortexes emerge. By Carolyn Wilke Some volcanoes perform a rather subtle trick: blowing rings of vapor that waft ...
A large formation of granite discovered below the lunar surface likely was formed from the cooling of molten lava that fed a volcano or volcanoes that erupted early in the Moon's history -- as long as ...
In an effort to better understand volcanic activity and its origins on Earth and beyond, University researchers have examined the creation of magma chambers to help explain why these chambers exist at ...
