A new study discovers ancient subterranean islands several meters taller than Mount Everest that are hotter than their ...

Data collected by NASA's InSight lander suggest that ancient internal processes are responsible for the "Martian dichotomy" ...

Meteoroid impacts create seismic waves that cause Mars to shake more strongly and deeply than previously thought. This is ...

A seismometer is an instrument that records the shaking of the Earth's surface caused by seismic waves. The term seismograph usually refers to the combined seismometer and recording device. The first ...

There are a number of ways to measure the magnitude of an earthquake. Most scales are based on the amplitude of seismic waves recorded on seismometers. These scales account for the distance between ...

NASA's InSight mission has been studying marsquakes since landing in 2018 and has detected frequent seismic activity on the planet. While Earth’s tectonic plates cause earthquakes when they coll ...
