The research supports the argument that Venus’ tectonics are active today, he says. What’s more, the demonstrated ability of computer simulations to predict what spacecraft may observe will be a boon ...

But now, fresh analysis of Apollo-era data suggests that the moon is actually more tectonically active than previously presumed. In a study out today in Nature Geoscience, researchers may have ...

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The moon may be dynamic and tectonically active like Earth - not the inert world some scientists had believed it to be - based on a new analysis disclosed on Monday of ...

Mercury turns out to be currently tectonically active. Other than Earth, it is the only rocky planet in this solar system that is still slowly thrusting up parts of its crust and changing the ...

If true, the finding suggests that the moon continues to be tectonically active today, researchers report online May 13 in Nature Geoscience. Knowing more about that activity, including where the ...

Mercury joins Earth as the only known tectonically active planet in our Solar System. NEW IMAGES FROM NASA’s MESSENGER spacecraft have revealed previously undetected fault scarps – cliff-like ...

The discovery suggests that the moon is still tectonically active, and raises the possibility that future lunar bases may be vulnerable to shallow moonquakes. It also prompts questions about the ...

Seismologists and other experts are now trying to determine if the latest quake is tectonically connected to the future “Big One.” “The earthquake anticipated by the government’s Cabinet ...

Here’s how it works. The moon is still tectonically active, like Earth, generating moonquakes as our planet creates earthquakes, a new study based on Apollo mission data found. These moonquakes ...
