Scientists Discover Metals That Refuse To Crack at an Astonishing -424°F
Two experimental alloys resisted cracking at −424°F by forming new crystal defects, offering a possible route to tougher metals for extreme cold. Most metals become stronger as they cool, but some also become more vulnerable to breaking. Iron, tungsten, and chromium belong to a class called body-centered cubic metals, whose atomic arrangement can make them
China's Chang'e-6 Mission To The Moon Brought Puzzling Samples Of Cubic Iron Back With It
It is the first time this phase of iron has been found in lunar samples. Usually, it would only be stable at temperatures between 912 and 1,394 degrees Celsius (1,674 to 2,541 degrees Fahrenheit).
In 2007, scientists used NASA satellite measurements to reveal 14 areas of moving water beneath West Antarctica; one hidden lake had drained about 2 cubic kilometres in three years
Antarctica may look like a vast, frozen and unchanging landscape, but deep beneath its thick ice lies a surprisingly active world. In 2007, scientists reported findings based on measurements collected by NASA’s ICESat satellite between 2003 and 2006, revealing major changes in the surface of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet and signs of water moving through hidden lakes far below.
A colossal magma system has been hiding beneath Tuscany
A massive magma reservoir has been detected deep beneath Tuscany, despite showing no obvious signs at the surface. Scientists mapped the roughly 6,000-cubic-kilometer body using natural ground vibrations recorded by dozens of seismic sensors. It poses no immediate danger, but the discovery reveals how enormous volcanic systems can remain hidden and could transform the search for geothermal energy and critical minerals.
In a First, Scientists Witness the Seafloor Spread in Real Time, Giving Them a Rare Glimpse at a Mysterious Geologic Process
Across a matter of days in 2024, the seafloor in part of the Indian Ocean dropped by about 13 feet, and roughly 5.7 billion cubic feet of molten rock rose to the crust's surface, according to a new study
Congo River releases 40,000 cubic metres of freshwater into the Atlantic every second. Scientists trace where it goes
Every second, the Congo River releases about 40,000 cubic metres of freshwater into the Atlantic Ocean. That makes it the world's second largest river by discharge.
OSS Names Paul Averna VP of Business Development
Averna most recently served as vice president of VX Marine and earlier in leadership roles at Cubic Defense.
Scientists reveal formation mechanism behind spherical assemblies of nanocrystals
From table salt to snowflakes, and from gemstones to diamonds—we encounter crystals everywhere in daily life, usually cubic (table salt) or hexagonal (snowflakes). Researchers from Noushine Shahidzadeh's ...
UN agency begins clearing huge Gaza City waste dump as health risks mount
Solid‑waste mound, estimated at 300,000 cubic meters that formed during war, to be moved to new temporary site south of city that meets environmental standards
