Scientists have discovered haematite, a form of rust, on the Moon’s poles. The finding puzzles researchers since rust needs oxygen and water, both scarce on the Moon. Studies suggest Earth’s atmosphere and magnetic effects may play a role. BulletsIn Haematite, form of rust, detected at Moon’s poles Discovery shocks scientists, oxygen and water rare on

Scientists have discovered fossils in southern Africa that date back 250 million years, just before the “Great Dying.” The findings, published in August 2025, shed light on life during the Permian period and provide clues about how ecosystems collapsed during the largest extinction in Earth’s history.

A meteorite older than Earth crashed into a house in McDonough, Georgia, on June 26, 2024. The rock, now called the McDonough Meteorite, is estimated to be 4.56 billion years old, making it 20 million years older than our planet. Scientists from the University of Georgia are studying it to understand its origin and asteroid

NASA has launched the TRACERS mission to study how solar wind interacts with Earth’s magnetic field. The launch occurred in July 2025 from California. The mission aims to understand how solar activity affects Earth’s space environment and potentially disrupts technology. BulletsIn TRACERS launched by NASA in July 2025 from California.

New research predicts Earth will lose its oxygen-rich atmosphere in about a billion years due to the Sun’s rising brightness. This change will drastically alter life conditions, making Earth uninhabitable for complex organisms. The study also challenges long-held beliefs about oxygen being a reliable sign of life on other planets. BulletsIn Oxygen levels may crash
